Indictment Friday Predictions


Two names I've seen repeated today.

Robert Mercer
Michael Flynn

So far Flynn is ahead, but its early.


(Maybe this should be posted in the Lounge)
Let me know & I'll repost it there.

Trump is protecting Ivanka.

They could have protected their financial holdings from siezure by now. Maybe they don't believe Ivanka's also going down.

I do believe Kushner is top of the list.

It gets hard to tell who's a worse criminal afterwhile. There's just so many!

LESLEY STAHL: Our story's on a man named Brad Parscale, who was very high up in the Trump campaign organization. No one's heard of him, but he was a big decision maker and extremely influential in helping Trump win because he was online making the digital ads.

BRAD PARSCALE: Right in here, you can see the first three deplorable ones.

BRAD PARSCALE: Here you have different photos of different type of people saying they're deplorables.

LESLEY STAHL: So these were basically with Hillary looking quite ugly and mean—

BRAD PARSCALE: Those tested well.

LESLEY STAHL: The mean face tested well?

BRAD PARSCALE: Yeah. We tested different of her face expressions.

These are my predictions. However, I'm open to changing them as others present a more sound option.
Just having a discussion on a discussion board as we wait for the absolute word from Mueller.

Kind of like predicting the playoffs, based on stats of which trumpkin has accrued the most crimes worthy of an indictment..

If I knew what Mueller knew I'd be taking bets.
This is all we have for now.

We pretty much have all our hope on Mueller since there's no sign so far, of any other hero with the super smarts & super powers needed to bring down this devil of a global crime syndicate.

Consider the long reach he has with making things happen just because he has the money to do so.

Bannon, Breitbart, Cambridge Analytica, etc.

Kushner etc, & the Russians is in the same indictment boat.
Rebeka Mercer's public involvment in Trump 2016, opened the door to further Mercer scrutiny.

When Mueller shined his spotlight on Cambridge & Trump Tower, Rebeka may as well have been standing there waving back. "Pick me"!

Its like Trump, for years ran his corrupt business, cheated ppl, laundered money & got away with it. UNTIL he ran for President of the USA.

There's a moral to this story.

Some indictments unsealed today might make a lovely parting gift for tRump to stew about on his way to Asia. Can’t you picture it: tRump sitting aboard AF1, cursing and gnashing his phony white teeth. I rather like that image myself and he has many hours to rage and bitch and moan. He could very well work himself up into such a snit that by the time they reach the first stop, he is apoplectic.

Mueller's going to be working at his own pace and his own timetable. I don't necessarily think he's working on a news cycle basis.

He's Michelangelo painting the Sistine Chapel in the classic film The Agony and the Ecstasy, and we're all the Pope asking impatiently when he will be done, with his response being "When I am finished!"

Among others like RICO etc

Because he basically funded so much of the coup.

Something's going down with Mercer family, the big tell is his sudden divestment of one of his companies. There may be more, we don't know that yet.
I just hope its big enough to give Trump a heads up as to what Mueller will do to him too.

He can crap himself till the day he wakes up in a prison cell.
