Considering the indictments and guilty pleas already effected by the investigation of the Special Counsel, is this behavior ominous
or just another day of presidentin' by the buffoon-in-chief?

    Why does the Mueller team have 13 hardened Democrats, some big Crooked Hillary supporters, and Zero Republicans? Another Dem recently added...does anyone think this is fair? And yet, there is NO COLLUSION!

    Spent very little time with Andrew McCabe, but he never took notes when he was with me. I don’t believe he made memos except to help his own agenda, probably at a later date. Same with lying James Comey. Can we call them Fake Memos?

    Wow, watch Comey lie under oath to Senator G when asked “have you ever been an anonymous source...or known someone else to be an anonymous source...?” He said strongly “never, no.” He lied as shown clearly on @foxandfriends.

    The Mueller probe should never have been started in that there was no collusion and there was no crime. It was based on fraudulent activities and a Fake Dossier paid for by Crooked Hillary and the DNC, and improperly used in FISA COURT for surveillance of my campaign. WITCH HUNT!

[h=1]Trump Lawyer Says Special Counsel Inquiry Should Be Ended[/h]By MICHAEL S. SCHMIDT and MAGGIE HABERMANMARCH 17, 2018
Continue reading the main story


WASHINGTON — A lawyer for President Trump called on the Justice Departmenton Saturday to end the special counsel investigation into ties between Russia and theTrump campaign, shifting abruptly to a more adversarial stance as the inquiryappeared to be intensifying.The comments by the lawyer, John Dowd, were prompted by the firing late onFriday of the former deputy F.B.I. director Andrew G. McCabe. Mr. Dowd exhortedRod J. Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general, who oversees the special counsel, toend the inquiry and accused the former F.B.I. director James B. Comey of concoctinga baseless investigation......

What would be your response if Jeff Sessions appointed a special counsel to investigate the DNC under the guise of collusion using the obvious fraud and collusion surrounding the Trump Dossier, and the special counsel had free reign to investigate every democrat with an unlimited scope and unlimited federal resources and arrest and charge based on whatever they find, without regard to initial intent?

LOL! It's always a lark to watch people squawk about 'obvious fraud and collusion' surrounding the 'Trump dossier' and never be able to substantiate the claim with anything other than unhinged, Fantasy Land blathering.

It's also funny to see people assume that the voters give a **** about the DNC.

Special Counsel Mueller is an adult long republican who has earned a stellar reputation. Republican, Trump appointed, Deputy Atty General Ron Rosenstein (not a Baltimore democrat as President Trump described him....) found sufficient cause to appoint Robert Mueller, instruct him as to the mandate of the investigation of the Special Counsel,
under the direct supervision of Deputy Rosenstein, who remarked quite recently,

Rod Rosenstein, deputy attorney general, says Robert Mueller is 'not an unguided missile'
Kevin Johnson, USA TODAY Published 5:46 p.m. ET March 12, 2018
WASHINGTON — Despite unrelenting criticism from the White House on the course of the investigation into Russia's election interference, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein Monday offered unqualified support for special counsel Robert Mueller.

"The special counsel is not an unguided missile," Rosenstein said in an exclusive interview with USA TODAY. "I don't believe there is any justification at this point for terminating the special counsel."....

.......
As of February 23, 2018, Mueller has secured guilty pleas from five people: Flynn, Gates, Papadopoulos, private citizen Richard Pinedo, and Dutch attorney Alex van der Zwaan. Additional indictments have been issued against Manafort, thirteen Russian citizens, and three Russian entities.

On January 25, 2018, the New York Times reported that Trump ordered Mueller to be fired in June 2017 but backed off when the White House Counsel Don McGahn told him he would rather resign than carry out the directive.[10][11] A March 2018 article stated that McGahn was asked to lie and deny the claim that Trump order Mueller fired.[8]

The POTUS has access to all of the details above, as do you. Instead of posting a portrait here imploring me to be empathetic towards the world's most unempathetic
leader, and possibly most unempathetic human being, why not edit the wikipedia article linked above, more to your liking?

Wonderful. Now answer the question.
 
What reasonable explanation could there be for this POTUS's comportment? He was assigned the most electoral votes despite losing the popular
vote by 2,900,000. Why does this contradiction have no constructive influence on how he carries out his sworn duties or on his communication?

Trump Assails Mueller, Drawing Rebukes
From Republicans
By PETER BAKER MARCH 18, 2018

.....The two weekend tweets were the first time Mr. Trump has personally used Mr.
Mueller’s name on Twitter, and it raised the question once again about whether the
president might be seeking to lay the groundwork to try to fire the special counsel.
Such a move would surely set off a bipartisan storm of protest, and some
Republicans expressed alarm on Sunday......

....Representative Trey Gowdy, Republican of South Carolina, said if the president
was innocent, he should “act like it” and leave Mr. Mueller alone. Mr. Gowdy warned
of dire repercussions if the president tried to fire the special counsel, which might
require him to first fire his attorney general or deputy attorney general......

Sessions has had the authority to do that since January of 2017. What is he waiting for?

Not answering your dumb, no intelligence troll questons. WHy do you think saying stupid things with nothing to back it up then asking stupid questions is making an argument? Oh, yeah, the double standard of a no argument conservatve, everybody must provide a thesis with multiple sources to back up their argument, you guys just have to make the statement and repeat it over and over. Everybody else must answer you dumb questions, but you guys just have to deflect. LOL

Sorry, I think everybody on this forum knows these stupid tactics of people that have no facts, logic or reasoning behind their position. None of you are original, you all do the same stupid stuff and make the same stupid deflections and talking points

I would assume he hasnt done it because the scenario I painted which you seem eager to accept would be as much an abuse of the special prosecutor law as is currently occurring. Similarly...I GUARANTEE...if he DID impose just such a special prosecutor you would be tripping over yourself posting here on this site threads about how Trump and Sessions were abusing their power. Guaranteed.
