Which circuit court is the appeal currently in? Ideally it’s in a liberal leaning one and once they rule against Trump it’ll take like a year before SCOTUS can make a final 5-4 ruling in Trumps favor and by that point it’s time for the Presidential election.

I don't think the next president will be able to change the make up of the SCOTUS unless they are going to court pack which I'm skeptical of happening.

“If MLK had a gun” would be a nuclear-level hot take if it weren’t for the fact that the NRA has been arguing for arming teachers in schools to shoot and kill literal children that bring their lawfully-owned guns to school.

Honesty, yeah. This investigation won’t mean poo poo if he finalizes it a few months before the election and the FBI decides that they’ll follow protocol ~this time~ and hold off on releasing anything until December 2020. They need to get poo poo moving, as he still has a good chance of another win via EC once the republicans are rounded up, slapped around and given some boots to lick by Fox News.

He is a stereotypical G-Man. He's probably waiting "until it's done".

I simply do not believe that he is sitting on a basically finished report and is waiting for exactly the right time to release it.

Meanwhile, there's enough crimes in the public record to justify impeachment today. The problem is that half of congress is ready to go to the mat for President Crimes because they're a mixture of cowardly, sycophantic, and power hungry.

So impeach the motherfucker! Us, and Dems in Congress, waiting on a Mueller bomb to start impeachment are operating on a variety of false assumptions. The guy was DQ'ed the minute he took office while simultaneously owning a large corporation and a fraudulent charity. Oh, and a hotel he leased from our own government that world leaders are blatantly using to enrich him personally. That's enough. So do it. Everyone stop waiting around for Supercop to save us from this gently caress, it's dumb and naive as all hell and I'm done kowtowing to that logic.

What looks weird? By the metric of other investigations of this type he's moving very fast and has uncovered quite a bit. Yes he's a Republican and he might have nothing, but nothing we've been able to see remotely suggests that. Quite the opposite.

"It's either going to take him down or it's not." is bullshit of the highest order. Only an airtight case will bring a President down, and the creation of an airtight case isn't a dichotomy. It takes time, and again, by every available comparable investigation he's moving very quickly.

Yea people keep saying stuff like 'well the whitewater investigation took longer' but the whole point is that's because they went from a kinda shady land deal to 'did the president get dome in the oval office' because they were so desperate for SOMETHING.

You're using a partisan fishing expedition that went on way too long and ended up uncovering unrelated wrongdoing and resulted in an "impeachment" after which the president remained and saw soaring approval ratings as proof....this one will take our CURRENT president down in a meaningful way? I'm not sure this was the best example of whatever your point was.

Thank gently caress for that. It’s honestly pretty incredible that Trump is literally hunting down vulnerable groups with the intent to enact draconian laws as a bargaining chip. Imagine if Obama has decided to push an EO basically creating a 95% tax on the sales of guns in order to push a gun control bill through Congress; the entirety of DC would be burned to the ground by chuds in 3 days.

My point is, the only reason to end a criminal investigation early is if you think it’s illegitimate. Which makes you sound like every conservative talking head.

Neither you, nor me, or even the SA Mods, have a loving clue what the Mueller report has or does not have. It's been almost free of leaks and comments, which is extraordinary - especially now.

So I wouldn't even begn to say anything about Mueller or what will or won't happen because everyone is talking out their rear end on that.

Do we need to wait? Probably not.

I agree with that, but if I were Pelosi I'd wait until the report comes out too. It's by far the best play and makes conviction in the Senate more likely, because the impeachment hearings in the house will be bolstered by everything in the report and will be less susceptible to being called blatantly partisan. They'll be called that regardless of course, but it'll help.

Exactly, I think if you want to speed it up just try to cause more chaos than the Trump Admin currently is. At this point the SCO seems to be simply playing HR.

My point is simple: everyone in Greater New York knew Trump was a criminal.
