24. If only. But that won't happen.

I am slightly more optimistic about the Mueller Report, but not gung ho that it will be what we think the truth is...that Trump conspired with Russia to interfere in our election, and that Trump obstructed justice on more than one occasion.

It's hard to pin the tail on the head donkey. The head is usually protected from being actually involved in actions. Still, this isn't the smartest group of corrupt politicians, so it's possible.

Pelosi won't be President. I haven't heard a name for a possible candidate yet that screams strongly positive...maybe Beto, but we don't know enough about him yet.
