    Means little, how many times have we've seen GOP politicians critize Trump but when it comes down to a vote they all fall perfectly inline

    -snip-

    McConnell argued that speculation of Mueller’s imminent ouster is overheated and that Trump’s lawyers agree he should be allowed to wrap up his investigation. “I don’t think Bob Mueller is going anywhere,” McConnell told reporters. “The president’s lawyers obviously agree that he ought to be allowed to finish the job.

    McConnell called Mueller a “thoroughly credible individual” and “an appropriate appointment” to serve as special counsel.

    We all anticipate him finishing the job and telling the American people what they need to know about this episode,” he said.

    Mueller is a hack, his prosecutors are biased,and his investigation a fishing expedition turned witch hunt.
    Rosenstein is supposed to limit any roaming by Mueller -another joker who won't limit anything

    It's a pig circus

    I outraged that Rump has not fired Mueller or prosecuted Hillary, he seems to know it’s the right thing to do but is too feckless to do anything!

    In the end, nothing consequential will come of it, a week of media coverage and everything gradually will move on. The GOP politicians will all claim it is a mistake, even show outrage, but as with everything else, do little to correct the situation

    They've been at it since the day Mueller was appointed, orchestrating a strategy to completely discredit Mueller beginning with questioning the legality of his appointment, Nunes's twilight Ubers to the White House weren't to discuss the weather. I'd wager after the November election the ax falls, by 2020 they'll have the Russian investigation portrayed as the Salem witch trials

    How can it be a "witch hunt" if he already has two active inditements and four guilty pleas from upper level Trump associates?

    do you seriously have to ask?
    It would play into the entire "saturday night massacre" where fake news and the Dems are constantly trying to make this nothingburger into the next Watergate

    because he's roaming far beyond any mandate of Collusion.
    He's now looking at bank records of 10years ago..for what? Did Putin and Trump collude back then?

    Congress appoints the SP, right? So after this November if Rump fires Mueller won’t the Democrats get to appoint someone new?

    That's how ANY investigation works, anatta. When people investigate things, they sometimes find other things - they don't ignore those things because they're not part of the 'original mandate.'

    So Rump is afraid of what the Democrats might say about it if he fires him?

    Have you read his original mandate?

    But “other things” was part of the “original mandate”.
