Constitutional Crisis


Assuming the the primary purpose of the Mueller investigation is a slow-motion coup of Trump's presidency ... and the Rosenstein and Mueller blood lust seems to be going unsatisfied  ... and seeing that Trump seems to be winning the mud ball fight with this daring duo ... I can only conclude that a certain desperation is setting in over at the DOJ. A number of recent events I think telegraph this prosecuteral frustration:

- the unprecedented raids on Michael Cohen's home, office and hotel room

- the leaking of the 49 questions that Mueller wants to ask Trump

- Rod Rosenstein's fighting words that the DOJ will not be extorted

- Robert Mueller's recent suggestion that he is going to subpoena Trump in front of a grand jury

To me, these moves are specifically designed to annoy Trump enough to cause him to fire Rosenstein and/or Mueller ... and thus to lose the sympathy of the American public. ... and set things up for impeachment in the fall.

These tauntings seem very obviously designed to play to Trump's impulsiveness ... and, so far at least, have not triggered the desired result. Rosenstein and Mueller must hate Trump with a white-hot fury to be willing to fall on their swords to try to get this man out of office.

This, in and of itself, is a Constitutional crisis.

  1. a lot of 'ifs' and 'seems' in your hypothetical. But I have to admire your ability to bend a logical pretzel. Even you must admit it is time to bring the curtain down on this Kakistocracy.

    How about the alternative. That the Mueller investigation is trying to get at the truth. Trump only lied 3000 times since he was sworn in and even his doctor says Trump twisted his arm and dictated that phony medical letter.
