Will Dems quit when Mueller says there is nothing there to prosecute? My guess is no. I don't know why...I just have a feeling the Dems won't care.

1. Trump committed no criminal wrongdoing.

The left will be outraged with Mueller's investigation, call him dishonest, may even want him investigated.

2. Trump committed wrongdoing, probably leading to impeachment proceedings at least.

The right will be outraged with Mueller's investigation, call him dishonest, may even want him investigated.

In other words, the true integrity of the investigation is irrelevant because it will be judged by the outcome and whether it was the outcome one was hoping for.
