Lawyers and paying fines will not save Trump and his family this time. Their lives will never be the same. Their lives will be ruined.
Trump has made a lot of very powerful enemies who want blood. Trump insulted and attacked everyone who is investigating him. That is the dumbest thing you can ever do.
Democrats in the House want blood. People in the FBI and justice department want blood. Prosecutors in New York want blood.
Trump will lose the protection of the Whitehouse one day. States like New York will be waiting with indictments.

(38,449 posts)As one observes the scene, Wile is a genius compared to Drump. Where is the proof?
Here it is........ From time to time Wile observes the obvious...he is either dumb, or has made a mistake,
............................usually as he is falling off a cliff, or getting hit by a train. At the moment before the hit,
............................Wile sees the truth..oops.. the train is about to hit, etc.
Now Mr. Trump ain't that smart...(and that says a whole lot) ..........................................
.................................The train has hit, and Trump does not know he has been hit by a train..
.................................Wile knows he has been hit by a train..
.....................................Trumpie doesn't know, and doesn't care..!!!!!!!!!!!!
And..in case you don't know, which you don't, I met the creator of Wile E. Coyote once and got his autograph..Chuck Jones..

(47,646 posts)watching all this unfold over the past two years, I cannot imagine anyone fool enough to insult and attack the FBI. The FBI has resources that we can only imagine and if pushed the limit, I'm sure they will have no problem using them.
The idiot really needs to pick his enemies more carefully, though right about now, almost everyone in the world is his enemy.

Maybe I've watched too many political thrillers, but I view the FBI and the CIA as powerful and formidable adversaries. Anyone who has any secrets in their past would be wise not to poke the hornets nest. Trump just can't help himself though. He has to attack.

(6,709 posts)He would be of no further use; it would confirm everything the left suspects about tRump--making him a liability instead of an asset; and it is not as if they are "friends." Pooty doesn't have friends, any more than tRump does: they only have sycophants, hangers-on and tools.

(14,178 posts)Or will they "negotiate" away all their political capital to get a few scraps?
I have already heard a story about how now Democrats can now use the threat of indictments, investigations etc,, to force the hand of Republicans to compromise on bills. I think this is short sighted
I pray you are correct. That they ride their momentum and go all in on the offensive. Because I believe that a few incremental compromises in bills that are in their totality destructive, and the ensuing familiar press photo ops of Nancy and Mitch grinning like cheshires, almost raising their hands together in victory.....is not worth it for the long haul. Mitch would use those optics to reign back in moderate Republicans/Independents, as proof they were not so extreme and pigheaded. And they'd still have Trump to get the extremist deplorable votes. Best of both for them.
Meanwhile it would be "moving forward' for Democrats again.
Sorry but based on history, I'll wait and see. I think we have to keep the pressure on to keep advancing into the fray for the good of the country in the long run, over a couple of positive news cycles how they squeezed out some compromise on a tax or immigration bill.

(3,257 posts)It seems we have been inundated with with "the inidctments are coming" for way too long. This should be an all hands on deck moment. It seems to me that just the state of New York could have enough to put the "thing" away. I have 0 confidence in the FBI, so I think it will be up to the states. My thoughts when the New York Times exposed massive fraud in the old man's estate were " What the hell is going on with the state of New York?" They've had a couple of years to look at this crap and if a reporter can get the info what the hell have you been doing? I know legal matters take time-but we are in the midst of a national emergency.Maybe the House can start swinging the hammer in January, but with the packed Supremes it is umlikely that he will voluntarily comply with anything and "executive' privelage will let him stall for the remainder of his term. The only way "it" goes down, in my opinion is if the R's decide he is costing them too many votes and dump him. I hope that I am wrong about Mueller, but then again he is a Republican, but I susupect it will just offer some low hanging fruit and maybe on of the "boys". The only twitter I want to see is "The indictments are issued."

(38,449 posts)In the past, he has escaped through bankruptcy, divorce, Russian money, Russian contacts, lying, and so on, court cases, etc, etc, etc.....
His escape lawyer is gone.
He has enraged an entire country.
He is hated all over the world.
His base is gradually shrinking. (very slowly,)
His attitude has not changed.
He no longer has total support of congress..He lost the House of Representatives. (the Senate is still questionable)
And he still thinks he can get away with whatever he does or says....
............HE IS CLUELESS.
The entire background and players has changed. He has lost, and doesn't know it.
.......But he and his family have lost...unlike any other loss he has ever been through. The nature of the loss will become obvious to everyone as things progress, sometimes quickly and sometimes slowly. I repeat, He doesn't have a clue..and............the sharks are there. He is alone in a rowboat, and the sharks are very hungry.and as stated in the original post,.." they are circling".

(5,657 posts)They still worship him. The Family Research Council, headed by Tony Perkins, will be having a love fest in March 2019 with Mango Mussolini, and staying at the Trump Hotel. From their website:
In March, the Family Research Council, which the Southern Poverty Law Center has identified as an anti-LGBTQ hate group, plans to hold a DC Christian Heritage Tour and Summit and will hold some events at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C.
According to its website, from March 28 to 31, visitors can enjoy five-star accommodations at Trump International Hotel. The group will get dinner at the hotel on Saturday and will hold their brunch and worship service there on Sunday.
There will be opportunities to discuss issues and policy while receiving up-to-the-minute briefings from national leaders, members of Congress and, pending approval, a White House briefing, wrote Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council (FRC).
The FRC supports conversion therapy, a harmful practice that falsely claims to change someones sexuality and gender. The American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry has said these therapies lack scientific credibility and increase the risk of causing or exacerbating mental health conditions.
Just to make my reaction clear:
I'm not citing a link on purpose; too sickening.

(9,426 posts)overcharging tRump venue, because of tax laws, I imagine. I would be afraid to attend, given the bad blood they and their "leader" generate. Since most of the domestic bombers and assassinators are gop, maybe they feel safe? They could consider this a fund raiser for the tRump family to pay lawyers.

(38,449 posts)Their lives will be ruined. ......................(Trump & his family, brackets my addition)
Trump has made a lot of very powerful enemies who want blood. Trump insulted and attacked everyone who is investigating him. That is the dumbest thing you can ever do."
The single most important idea (to me) is Trump really doesn't have a clue. In the past, he has gotten away with stuff and survived. Whether it was divorce, bankruptcy, going away, ignoring events, whatever. His gang of lawyers saved him. Now one of that gang is truly against him. All the illegal activities of Trump's gang will come out. Why? Mueller ain't new at going after a gang of vicious crooks. It ain't his first time, like this is Trump's first time in an official elected position..
......Mueller and his team have seen it all, and know all the tricks. Trump can use the same language, posture, writings, friends, contacts as before, and he will lose and lose big. So big that, "Their lives will be ruined"
All the Trump properties will be sold and renamed. Since Trump has gotten away with it in the past, he thinks he can get away with it again. But he won't. And his crowd will end up in the slammer. This ain't new either.. It has happened before...to another President: Richard Nixon........and there is a famous commentator who is still around that knows all about this and his name is: John Dean. Actually he was part of the Nixon gang and served time in the slammer for his part. (he got reduced sentence for testifying for the government..see any similarities?)..
..OH, one more idea for all to think about..Nixon had been through a whole lot in his life, some good a lot bad. Nixon was pretty sure when all that shit started, that he would not only survive, but come out better in the end. Only in the last few months was it clear that Nixon would not survive as President...We are getting to that exact same point with Trump. But he still thinks at times, that he will survive and come out better...But we know that that idea is an illusion. Mueller will get him and his family..One way or another..and.."Their lives will never be the same.

(5,511 posts)How stupid can Donald Trump be??
If he stayed in NY, he could continue his criminal enterprise with little to no consequences.
Instead, the bloviating imbecile wanted more, not intelligent enough to realize that the RULE of LAW is way, way , way over his feeble ability to manipulate it...
Donald Trump. The dumbest motherfucker to ever walk the Earth.

(493 posts)Something must be going down right? 8 attorney's working on Veteran's Day? Muellers team working today shows that hes in overdrive.
Michael Cohen, was in DC with lawyers today, The fact that Trump has been isolating himself makes me think that he knows something big is coming. Im thinking the reason Trump is laying low has nothing to do with the rain, but instead what is about to happen with Cohen and the Mueller investigation. Lanny Davis is working today too.
Federal courts will be open tomorrow - so the newly indicted (who were notified this weekend their sealed indictments will be opened tomorrow) will present themselves at the courthouses tomorrow morning (with their attorneys) for arrest, arraignment?
Probably explains why 🍄rump was so anxious to get back to the states! He couldnt concentrate over in Paris...Except when he saw putin! 😂😂
In this disturbing week of Trump bashing elections, free press, journalists, climate change, California firefighters, our military, our veterans, Armistice Day, AG seat, immigrants and minorities, this is good news. And today he will announce he is firing Neilson at the DHS...
