Think about it.

If Hillary Clinton had not destroyed emails including top secret, “arguably” obstruction of justice which should have led to a charge against her, Trump would not be accused of colluding with Russians to release them (by the way they showed how she colluded was Debbie Wasserman Shultz to hurt Senator Sanders). Hillary not cool, but we knew that.

Robert Muller turning lawyer Cohen to Federal Prosecutor to find “Cohen crimes” which may lead to Cohen’s speaking about payoffs to hookers, is not something Muller should have done. Cohen was not involved with Russia and hookers. If her were, Putin got Trump to do what in return to trying to help his election. If anything Trump has banned his buddies.

Clients will no longer be able to trust their lawyers, a basic reliance in our system. I hope that this expedition will be limited to Cohen crimes and I hope there was probable cause to go after him.

$130,000 campaign contribution is a stretch, but what’s it got to do with Russia?

Putin or his having someone speak to someone in Russia to use Facebook to mislead voters (or whatever our intelligence agencies allege) came from Putin maybe he likes Trump.

I think Muller should be given three or six more months to find these facts. Trump is President. Like him or not, he’s got a tough job with North Korea, China, Russia, Iran, Libya, European autocracies and illegal immigration, not to mention the economy.
