The question is: What are Repubs going to do

after Mueller reports his findings? If there is a limited finding, of only obstruction of justice, I think that they will do nothing. If there are charges of money laundering, as well, then maybe the Repubs will act on impeachment. But, then again, Repubs may say this was beyond the parameters of the original investigation. Looking ahead, good people must get ready for a fight. Also, I wonder if Mueller has looked into the sex trafficking with trump's modeling agency and other sexual abuse charges like the rape of minors? Just how much are the Repubs going to allow dotard to skate? Americans need to be made aware now that charges are coming.

Paid a porn woman to shut up. Tell me what democrat they would let get away with that, at the same time they got rid of Franken and Conyers. WE'RE ALREADY THERE.

2. When the shit hits the fan, they are going to need to pick a side real fast.

I hope they've thought about it, but I fear a lot of them might pick the "go down with the ship" or "Party over country" side.

I think they'll need to start thinking about it very soon, if they haven't already.

They simply don't care what Trump does. He has officially become a cult leader.

informing our fellow citizens, even if they are trumpers. trumpers think this whole investigation is a sham so they will be shocked when it does come down.

5. If those sex trafficking stories turn out to be true, we may finally have a game changer.

Of course a year ago I would have thought our hourly news cycle would have been a game changer, who knows anymore.

Ryan and McConnell will circle the wagons and go into total stonewall,and hope the Supreme Court comes to their rescue.

If the Media does their friggin jobs,we should be able to pick up on the directions of travel of the key players and who they are interacting with.
