24. It's impossible to overstate just how much everything changes once Nancy becomes Speaker-Elect

Wed Oct 17, 2018, 07:56 PM

Oct 2018

Once that happens, Special Counsel Mueller is no longer dealing with complicit GOP congress cretins, beholden and desperate to please Dotard. He will be unleashed. Also, Adam Schiff and Elijah Cummings being unleased will help out a lot.

I really do believe that Dem majority control of just one house is all Mueller needs to bring Trump down.

Additionally, I totally buy into your scenario that DT will be named as an unindicted co-conspirator in treasonous activites and I am counting on that along with the cumulative weight of the indictments to be what brings him down.

The one fly in the ointment is if the GOP still decides to hitch it's sails to a 25% approval President, which he would be once this comes to pass. If they do, then all bets are off.
