27. I have a feeling that when the pin is pulled from under Trump...

A whole lot of the GOP are going to go with him. The Kochs, the Mercers, Hannity, Limbaugh, Moore, O'Reilly, McConnell, Jones, Ryan, Gorsuch, Pence, I could go on and on. It seems the more the pieces of this puzzle are leaked, the more it seems that they're all guilty. It was a massive, carefully orchestrated, systematic takedown of Hillary Clinton. The whole GOP was in on it - and actively cheerleaded it - top to bottom. And the few people who probably weren't in on it, like Corker, are going to be a bit more difficult to sort out. And it doesn't take Mueller to figure that out. But I am all for him taking all the time he needs. I feel like it's going to be like that court room scene from the Dark Knight - you charge one with a crime, you can charge them all.
