Showing Original Post only (View all)MG. I'm in awe of Mueller's investigation team. [View all]
I worked in the legal field for decades. I have an idea (just an idea) of the volume of papers, the number of interviews, the amount of analysis of computers and documents, that just three indictments took. They probably drafted tons of documents themselves, timelines, complex spreadsheets following the money (all referenced to banks and properties and accounts).
Add to all that the conclusions they had to draw, the proof they had to line up to get an indictment. Then they had to draft and re-draft these critical indictments, and get them as close to perfect as possible. There are no re-dos.
I'm in awe of the immense task that faced this team in a few short months, and that they got these three critical players indicted (esp. Pappadopoulos).
I wouldn't want Mueller and his team having me in their sights.
For all his blustering and accusations and hostility, I can't imagine that Trump isn't losing sleep over this. The hubris of his team lying to the FBI and then to the Special Counsel? Maybe they didn't get how serious this investigation is. But indictments for lying to them ought to get the message across.
