    Odds of getting Trump for obstruction of justice is less than zero. Given Presidential powers he can fire anyone, anytime for any reason. If Mueller tried no doubt would go to SCOTUS where a ruling favoring Trump would happen.

    Mueller will stick with Russian collusion to influence the election. He will put a bunch away but even though a battery of smoking guns he won't get Trump.

    Based on evidence Mueller has and will have, Trump could face impeachment but unless and until Republicans lose their majority in both houses, it just ain't gonna happen.

    Sadly Trump will be around until 2020 and maybe even longer. Get used to it.

    Disagree here and besides it has been stated clearly that the new troubles with him and Cohen are where his bigger problem lies now.

    There is no way you can be sure of how the judges would rule. No way.

    Even Republicans have conceded that they will likely lose the house at this point. The chances of the Dems claiming the senate is well is still a long shot but the odds keep getting better everyday.

    2020 is the end of the line for him. Frankly I actually would prefer him over Pence at this point. With all this chaos next to nothing is getting done. Pence will bring a sense of normalcy that could see more of his agenda pass.

    No one should "get used to it". The rule of law hangs in the balance. Everyday people should remind themselves that the country is in danger and never to resign themselves to accepting or getting used to what is happening.

    No way of knowing what the Supreme Court would decide in the face of irrefutable facts concerning trump or anyone else. Big difference bewteen conservative leanings and blind support. Gorusch sided with the libs in at least one vote since he joined, so even he's not an automatic vote for trump.

    I think the ruling would be based on the issue of indicting a sitting prez rather than his guilt or innocence. Yes, we don't know but may find out if an indictment is issued.

    Took 3 rewrites of his obvious muslim immigration ban but supreme court allowed it to go into effect.

    ^^ Exactly. The court is conservative no doubt but it should not be considered partisan.

    I see North Korea is about to release the Americans it's been holding. Another foreign policy disaster for Trump.

    I am not sure NK is right to strike a deal with Americans, they have a history of renegading their deals

    Never mind Maxine Waters' urgency for a headline, and not that I could see Trump impeached anyway, but I think a sitting president can only be impeached for something he did while in office. If so, he could have been corrupt as a Clinton before the election and clean as a whistle for impeachment purposes.

    Plus ca change... It's not the first time, might not even be the last.

    The bar is set so low for Trump at 'As Long As It's Not Completely Fucked Up' that even the possibility of achieving the bare minimum is trumpeted as a resounding success.

    The bare minimum? No other POTUS has even come close to what The Don is going to achieve on the Korean peninsula. NK realised that the US finally has a POTUS as batshit crazy as fat boy and he's come to the table and a deal will be done, progress has already been made that no one thought possible even a few months ago. All hail The Don.

    That's not true. The release of prisoners, the promises to shutter facilities in front of the worlds media... it has all been done before.

    And you're currently lauding Trump for things that haven't even actually happened yet.

    That's great, you're entitled to your own opinion, however as the saying goes you're not entitled to your own facts ('alternative' or otherwise).

    Having the NK president set foot in SK and vice versa. The propaganda speakers on both sides of the border taken down. Fat boy making concessions and commitments all over the place on all issues. Feel good factor around the place. Wasn't for the witch hunt against him the West would also be enjoying a lot better relations with Russia than it currently is. What's going to happen the US arms industry if no invented bogiemen left? How are they going to justify their obscene military expenditure when the US population (dumb fuks like bsnub) finally wakes up.

    Again, nothing that hasn't been done before. The DPRK are past masters of this sort of thing.
