There is no man Donald Trump fears more than Robert Mueller, the special counsel who could have him evicted from the White House, and even sent to the Big House.
He's the recurring nightmare who makes Trump wake up screaming.
Which explains why until this weekend, the cowardly Trump hadn't dared criticize him.
But after whacking Andrew McCabe, the deputy FBI director, one day before he was due to retire, Trump is in a frigging frenzy.
And now he's going after Mueller, like a maniac, or a werewolf...
And even Republicans are freaking out.
President Trump on Sunday abandoned a strategy of showing deference to the special counsel examining Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election, lashing out at what he characterized as a partisan investigation and alarming Republicans who feared he might seek to shut it down.
“If he tried to do that, that would be the beginning of the end of his presidency, because we’re a rule-of-law nation,” Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, an ally of the president, said on “State of the Union” on CNN.
And with good reason.
For if Trump did fire Mueller, many Republicans would be forced to demand his impeachment, which at the very least would blow the Republican's chances of winning the mid-term elections right out of the water.
There would be massive protests in the streets...
And even many of Trump's supporters would start to wonder why he seems to anxious to hide any collusion with the Russians.
When Putin's thugs are accused of poisoning people in Britain. And Russian hackers are threatening to leave North America in the dark.
And what might happen when he meets with the North Koreans.
And here's what I think.
I think Trump is almost done, and that we are closer the end than the beginning.
He is going to wear his treason.
And it will be the end of him...

There was an interesting report I almost missed in the flurry. Three people who were at the meeting where Padadopolis suggested a visit to Russia to negotiate electoral interference for sanction relief have testified to Mueller. They all said Sessions was in favour. This means Sessions lied to Congress.
There is a photo of the meeting. Now , to figure out who the three are.
Simon be aware you have caught the Russian bogyman bug. Its been ruining the world since 1948.
More like the end of Trudope according to the new Angus poll.
Actually Steve it was european politics that showed me the Russian plan. A non military attack to damage trust in Western democracies focussed on far right wing politicians in England, France, Austria, everywhere actually. Money to attend conferences, high tech info help and misinformation campaigns ( troll factories ) were some of the methods. They had good results with Brexit, with LePin etc.
The plan was to damage the economy and the politics of NATO countries. It is interesting that Russian efforts used to go to radical leftist but now that have figured out that it is the Right Wing Nut Jobs that will really do some damage.
Innocent men don't go to the lengths Trump has gone to bash the Mueller probe.
Innocent men would welcome the probe to help prove their innocence.

hi rumleyfips...Sessions seems to have a charmed life, but since he fired McCabe, he may have violated the recusal that annoyed Trump so much, so I'm pretty sure that he will be found in the box with the rest of them...
hi Steve...Wrong. As I've made clear many times I'm not a Cold War warrior. I like the Russian people, I just don't like their thuggish leader and his pack of oligarchs. And like rumleyfips I deplore the way Putin and company have been stirring up fascists all over Europe. The Russians who died fighting the fascists are the ones who have been betrayed...
hi anon@10:43...I very much doubt it. Trudeau got hammered by the Con media, but let's see what happens to Scheer when he is finally exposed to the light of day. My guess is he will wither like a vampire in the sun...
hi JD...exactly. And neither do innocent men pay off women for things they haven't done. Trump thinks he can buy himself out of everything, but in the long run it won't work....
