'Cept for demonstrating his bromance with ol' Comey he'd a moved on it if he had it. I grant y'all, it ain't possible to know for sure and maybe he is, indeed, waiting for a 'nother Roosian comic book.

So, he let Flynn and Papadopolous cop a plea as cooperative witnesses when they have nothing to offer?

It is easy to indict given the sweeping powers of Mueller.

It's not like Bobby 'The Boy Scout' Mueller has super powers, he has to get an actual federal judge to sign off on these indictments with actual evidence, y'know.

True, but the indictments do not have to relate to the tenor of his mission.

The 'mission' as spelled out by DOJ Rosenstein includes any crimes, not just Trump and his cronies playing footsie with Putin. Like I've said before it will be Trump's financial crime that brings him down. He's helped the Russian mob launder a shit ton of money through his real estate business.

Look at it this way, Scarface Capone was sent to prison for tax evasion instead of murder. Why should the Trump Crime Syndicate skate on all of their felonies?

It is a silver lining to this Russia noise. The Russian people will be grateful for that.
Money from Russians played a significant part in renovation and gentrification of many areas of New York city especially Brooklyn.

I have seen where the Brits have also turned on the heat. After welcoming Russian criminals who brought billions to Britain, the Brits have now declared that people who have wealth over a measly 50,000 pounds face seizure if the origin of such wealth is deemed corrupt.

It seems Russian oligarchs will be forced to invest more in Russia.
