Wait a minute.
If USA Today is saying fire Mueller, there must be something else to this. There is not a smidgen of help to DJT from these people in the press. There's more democrat problem here that keep coming up with all the digging.
This is an opinion column, not a USA Today editorial

I agree. The Louise Mensch crowd is substantially in denial.
But just because you're paranoid doesn't mean people ain't out to getcha.

No idea, but I think that without Jim Comey's letter about the emails on Anthony Weiner's laptop she probably would be. Nate Silver put out a good piece on that a while back.
Dude, come on
She lost because of HER.
As late as October of last year she couldn't articulate why she was running for President. You know why that is? Because just saying "I'm running because my ego wants to be the first female President" wouldn't have set well with voters.
Compared to Trump who consistently had a message of why was running for the office.
The Dems were going to have a hard time winning that election regardless, both from the historical standpoint that it hard for the same party to win the Presidency three cycles in a row, and from the practical stand point that Americans in general are just sick of identity politics, but when they doubled down and nominated without question the worst candidate in the history of US Presidential elections, it was over. The comey letter did not cost Hillary the election. HIllary did.
The dumb arrogant bitch was so confident that she ignored the rust belt so that she could try to flip Arizona to blue and that bit her in the arse big time.

There was never anything there.
The left lied to cover up their shitty candidate losing.
Establishment cuck Pubs are feeling the fire because they don't want to lose their gravy train.

I really don't disagree with a bit of that criticism of her personally as a candidate or her campaign strategy.
The gist of Silver's argument is essentially that the letter amounted to a 1% swing, which because Trump's margin was less than that in the three critical states that proved decisive in his electoral college win (PA, MI, WI), the outcome would've been different in the letter's absence. The contemporaneous polling swung significantly.
I don't have the statistical background that he has, so I don't have huge confidence in that opinion but it seems to pass the eyeball test. Again, this is not to say such an event would've felled a better candidate with a better strategy. Life is complicated.

But again, if the pile of shite hadn't of used a private server in an all to obvious attempt to avoid FOIA laws, this wouldn't have been an issue to begin with.
Do you have kids? I have 6 and the younger ones they love to rat each other out when they do something wrong, and while it is true that Johhny wouldn't have got in trouble if Sally hadn't told on him (names have been changed to protect the innocent) the real reality is that if Jonny hadn't done something wrong, Sally wouldn't have had anything to rat him out about.

Yes, I have kids and that scenario is all too familiar.
If I develop alcoholic cirrhosis due to my drinking then die when I'm given a hepatotoxic drug that would'n't have killed a healthy person, what killed me? Coroners say there are often "proximate causes" (the drug toxicity), intermediate (the cirrhosis) and "distal causes" (the behavior that led to cirrhosis) when determining cause of death.
Hillary's behaviors were distal causes that left her vulnerable to politically succomb to the actions of James Comey. Again, I don't have the chops to check Nate's math. Neither am I a coroner.
But I agree that our kids are rats.
