It won’t lead to impeachment because the House is so far right, but it could lead to the Dems taking the Senate and essentially ensuring gridlock through the rest of his term


Like anything is getting done when it isn't gridlock

Status quo - Congress isn't going to do anything

TigerDoc, your prediction?

Almost all "qualified" folks on twitter chiming in saying it will be manafort for financial crimes (probably) unrelated to direct collusion.

The country is not with The Deep State. They just aren’t. If anything, it would bolster him as it would be seen as politically motivated with so many Dems out there having there pockets lined with Russian dollars .

Not possible in my estimation. Virtually no political fallout. Plenty of time, an eternity actually, before the mid terms.

Whoever is indicted was expected by people paying attention. Those not paying attention will only care about charges and if directly related to Trump. Media will spin. Trump will counter with tweets. Mid terms too far away. Nothing major, and no one cares.

The danger is in the drip, drip drip, but that remains to be seen.

Can someone provide a synopsis of supposed people who will be charged? I've seen Manafort and tweets saying not him. Any other names?

Is Trump seen as a pure Republican by most voters?

It's either Manafort or Flynn. Anyone on the other side of the aisle (as has been hinted at here) would result in anarchy

Probably not. But i'm not sure. What I am sure about is that this will pass by unless it is major, and I'm also sure hardly anyone is paying atention. It's the economy stupid.

I agree it will be a probably be non-coordination/conspiracy charge, most likely FARA, making false statements to FBI, or perjury before the Grand Jury or obstruction. I think Manafort's most likely then Flynn, then any number of others. I think the financial crimes cases are more complex, so unless Manafort made a simple "check the box" violation, I'd be surprised to see Manafort charged for tax evasion or money laundering yet, but who knows? This is uncharted waters.

Mueller is a cuck who hates trump. He couldn’t stand Trump not having any negative press this week.

After the week the Dems had, they’re desperate for anything to cling onto. It’s pathetic
