I think the plan was to ‘stop Trump’ ASAP but it’s not like they could just make something up. Things aren’t that bad, yet anyway.
So I look for Mullet to ‘coincidentally’ make a report sometime before November. And also because there’s a political risk in waiting—it’s not inconceivable that republicans could increase their numbers in the House. There’s also potential trouble afoot [for Mullet, Comey et al] in the form of another SP to look into the myriad alleged abuses of the so-called Deep State.
That has the potential to blow the whole thing up. In fact, it just came out that Comey lied to Congress when he claimed they look at all of Hillary’s emails. I don’t care about Hillary or her stupid emails, but this is just going to add to the political pressure for another SP. How long before that reaches critical mass?
But my guess is Mullet is going to go with what he has—more sooner than later. I also think his over the top prosecutorial tactics [throwing Manafort into solitary confinement, raiding Cohen’s office like he was a common drug lord etc] is an indication that things are getting desperate.
The next six months to a year could get real interesting.
