I think Trump is finished (and my work is done)

BY KEITH OLBERMANN

I am confident now .. that this nightmare presidency .. will end prematurely—and .. soon ...

... the most .. qualified expert alive on the subject of prosecuting a president, .. John Dean, put it to me very simply ...

Mueller makes a deal with Flynn ... to get Trump. Period ...

... There seems to be so much obstruction of justice .. that it’s hard to pick out a key player .. who couldn’t be guilty of it. Trump could be impeached on just obstruction .. and a few lesser charges ... Or ... We could be spared the trauma of .. impeachment .. if Trump is smart .. and .. resigns ...

... the fourth possible outcome: that .. Republicans .. impeach or remove Trump .. purely to save their own asses ...

Exactly-- though if it fails BECAUSE of him* I think the GOP would want to move on to a Pence admin. Gidney N Cloyd Nov 2017 #6

But I could never say 'my work is done' until I croak! Not a big fan of Keith Olbermann, I think he doing this cuz he is changing jobs.

(* and going out of his way to piss off the minority leaders like he did today is one great way to galvanize the Democrats and help it fail)
