C. Robert Mueller and the special counsel office.
D. Trump, but not the Republicans.
E. The Republicans but not Trump.
F. The Media.
G. Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump.

If 45 makes what looks like a "great deal" on trade with China and unemployment stays low then people will forget about 45s and the
GOPs crimes. People don't look very deep if they are economically secure. Those who are not secure will have their brown skinned scapegoats. Social security and Medicare will be intact for those over 50 or so, and Medicaid cuts will only be on minorities. It seems the GOP has learned how to get around court rulings when they lose gerrymandering suits. The effects of the massive deficit will only be felt in 10 years or so. The fact that 45 and his cronies are making a fortune and working for Russia will be fine as long as most people feel that the economy is working well for them. Things need to happen quickly or we are looking at full term, at least, for 45.
