It would only be fitting if Mueller dropped a bombshell on Trump & Co. the week before the election

just like what Comey did to Hillary and the Democrats in 2016.

Everyone knows that Trump colluded with the Russians, but if Mueller has any concrete proof of it, or for that matter any indication of anything illegal whatsoever by Trump and/or his Republican cohorts, then the voters have a right to know about it now, not 3 weeks from now.

I think they've already come to the realization, or will simply hang on to their delusion. The latter of those two groups, though, is unlikely to vote.

If after 3 1/2 years of his being a deranged lunatic someone hasn't figured it out, not likely that would be be the light coming on moment ...

I just pray that he releases some important indictments immediately afterwards and that if he gets fired and all the evidence destroyed by the devils minions that he will release the report to the public. Sadly, that would seem to be our only hope unless we take back at least the House and hopefully the Senate, but that looks unlikely. Some more governorships would also be very helpful and think Gillums got a good chance of winning in FL.

My money is on a Wall Street dive as the most likely to influence the fate of rumpie before the election. To win the election, I am counting on getting out every Democratic vote possible.

he is being unfairly targeted and that Mueller doing this before the election is a plot along with Hillary to get back at Trump.

He'd rally his supporters and use that to really get out the Repug vote.

So I'm saying that your plan would backfire. Trump would turn that around in a second and it would have a negative impact.
