In recent weeks, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) have all spoken with Trumpand have all expressed concern, or outright indignation, with Muellers probe.
In a lengthy interview with CNNs John Berman Wednesday, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) intimated hes been in contact with the White House about Muellers investigation into the Trump campaign and transition team.
Have you had conversations, or has your office had conversations, with the White House about the Mueller investigation? Berman asked.

(5,495 posts)Trump and the Republicans are the government right now. Theyre following the Putin model of Fascism - throw enough doubt on any threatening story against Trump that the investigation will be impossible. It will be branded a witch hunt by the enemies of the people.
Eventually, due to fierce persecution by the government and hatred by the misinformed public, the entire judicial structure and media capitulate to the government. Trump has made it clear he wants a puppet placed as the head of the FBI who will turn a blind eye to or be an accessory to the nasty things hes going to do once he secures total power.
The word for what they are is collaborators.
