I don't have a problem with what this judge said. It's his job to determine if his court is the proper venue for a case and if the prosecutors have a right to bring such a case. The Mueller team is made up of experienced prosecutors. They are big boys. They can withstand a little scrutiny. It's healthy and it lends legitimacy to the investigation when it is fully, even mercilessly, checked by the courts.
I agree, and this in fact is part of our system of check and balances. In many ways, the principles on which that judge is ruling is the same as those being applied in the special counsel! So really, Fox News is praising the investigation!
Let's be clear about something.
1) First of all, Trumpers should NOT get excited about this.
2) The prosecutor said that the Mueller team has been very conscious of the fact that if they find crimes that are not related to the goal of the Special Counsel, that those crimes would be farmed out to local Federal offices as was the case with Michael Cohen and the Stormy Daniels case, so...
3)...this means that Manafort's crimes that he is accused of ARE connected to the stated goal of the Special Counsel. So, that means that this is just one more way that Trump is screwed.
You Trumpers need to be honest with yourself. Every person on television or radio who supports Trump pales in comparison in any measure of intellect to those who support either Trump OR the rule of law. Listen to Rod Rosenstein speak. He is a brilliant man. Listen to Sean Hannity...buffoon. Talking heads on CNN and MSNBC AND their contributors who support the Mueller investigation are so superior in every way to those they bring on who back the President. Rudy Giuliani and Donald Trump are bumbling through this whole thing. Rudy's time has past. Michael Avenatti is making them look like fools. Avenatti now has said he has conclusive evidence that the payment was made precisely at the time it was so that it did not adversely affect the election for Trump. That is a campaign violation, and it is one that rises to the level of a felony. AND this is the least of Trump's worries.
Even if you can't see that truth, the evidence against Donald Trump is overwhelming, and he shows on a daily basis that he is incapable of telling the truth.
How much longer are you going to bend over and grab your ankles for Trump? You are being foolish, and the facts will show that you are.
Wake up and smell the coffee and you will be welcomed and not ridiculed.
Corruption at this level for the President is absolutely unacceptable.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.
