We will NEVER see the Mueller report.. there will be some reason they cannot release it.. But if we do not get to see the report.. its because they do not want us exposed as being walked on a leash by the Russians.. too embarrassing..

(7,550 posts)particularly after Trump has maligned them continually for the last two years. House Oversight will be on it like flies on dung with public hearings all year. House Intelligence will get the real meat and we'll only get redacted versions of that material I'm sure.
Anyone who wasn't asleep or brain dead knew Trump was a crook long before he ever ran for President. What truly amazes me is that he was stupid or clueless enough to think his past wouldn't be exposed. Now he's taking his entire family along with him while he crashes and burns.

I bet there are a bunch of republicans too scared to confront him on the federal level.. hoping they expose this character from top to bottom.. True the racists and alt right love him... but you know, when they start looking at funding for so many things.. like where the hell did all that money for right wing radio suddenly pop up in the 80's.. We used to talk about that all the times among our friends.. we went from listening to pop music on AM.. to howling hounds of the right.. and it felt like it happened overnight.. follow the money.. yep..

Our system of government has protected these types for most of my life.

(22,881 posts)He could not get loans in the US because of all his bankruptcies.. and the Russians kept slipping him money.. maybe grooming him to be responsive?? You are probably right.. he is so uninterested in what is really going on around him, and so used to lying constantly.. he really is morally impaired.. You know if you think about it.. what a hell of a way to get back at us, by infiltrating the very party that was so anti Soviet.. that brought them down.. maybe a lot of those Republican politicians ended up taking Russian money funneled to them not even realizing it.. till too late.. Lord that would make a heck of a book..

(7,550 posts)Probably for the drug cartels as well. Legitimate banks woudn't touch him with a ten foot pole after all his bankruptcies. I think his property in Central America somewhere still has people being sent to prison. Actually I think that was his daughter's...

(22,881 posts)I wonder if Trump and company ever stop and think why the heck did we do this?? There is no way that somehow, some way that they will not be exposed in the end.. and hopefully our side.. double checks every contribution.. because I think the Russians do not give a whits difference just as long as they can bring down Nato and the US

(7,550 posts)that they busted that guy Van der Graf for lying about. So many suspicious transactions that took place between that Cypriot bank run by Russian oligarch, it just has layers and layers and layers...something Mueller he specialized in when he took out the NY mobsters; following the money. Even the European authorities are chasing that stuff down.
Chin up...cheers!

(22,881 posts)There is so much that has already come out it is almost impossible to keep up with it.. Wow.. no wonder Trump has been in such a foul foul mood.. his whole family.. for the life of me I cannot figure out why politicians keep throwing in with him.. they are going to go down too.. or maybe that is why they do it... because they are trying to stay out of the line of fire.. you just cannot make this stuff up.. but I do feel better.. because there is no way they are going to get away from all of this..
