Now they're trying to say its all over and we have to move on. That Mueller has done his job and see NO Collusion etc. like Magic TrumPutin is absolved it was all 13 Independent Russians that conspired by themselves with no connection to Putin. See Putin was telling the truth! The gaslighting is now just vulgar lies no attempt to be clever or even cunning.

No, it's not over by a long shot. Trump is simply lying as always. What else can he do? Admit that he's a traitor? He's got nothing to loose. The thing of it is, he can't fire Mueller now, not after Mueller lets it be known that the Russians did in fact interfere and that Trump consequently did nothing, nothing whatsoever, to prevent it from happening again. Trump was derelict in his oath to protect the country. He did the opposite. He called it a hoax and blamed the Dems for a witch hunt. Just when you think you couldn't possibly despise the SOB more, you do.

He is a traitor by definition he's allowing the Russians to run riot all over the landscape and he's doing it because he thinks Putin's Russia is the kind of country he wants to RULE the way Putin rules Russia. Some of his minions want the same thing. Tillerson , Mattis, Pompeo, Pruitt , Kelly they are all Reactionary Nationalists not all are "White" nationalist though. I'd say however they all hate democracy to one degree or another and want it hammered flat or into a Russian style "FIG LEAF" democracy a rubber stamp democracy with ONE party like Putin's United Russia. United Russia is just the old Soviet Presidium with the addition of some tame opposition parties to make it look respectable to the uninformed outside Russia. You simply do not oppose Putin and his KGB ( the FSB) or else you run the chance of flying off the roof of a 10 story building or dying while taking a walk. The Gulags are less but still exist as well for the political and cultural opposition. It's what Putin has called a "guided democracy." The term "Guided democracy" is of course by definition an OXYMORON. Such is our peril right now. Will it be better if Pence replaces Trumpf? Maybe not . I'm not at all happy though with how Schumer /Pelosi and the Dem. leadership are acting in all this. If as I believe Trumpf goes soon to be replaced with Mike Pence that leaves the Dems. with NO game plan I can see for the fall. Pence will hit the reset button and ask for LOL Nat'l Unity they shouldn't go there but they'll have to won't they? Game pt. GOP.

My guess is that Trump plows forward right up to some very harsh ending situation and I'm not convinced its anything other than Trump losing an election. I'm not sure Mueller's final indictments will be actualized and I'm not convinced the Dems take power in November. Trump will drag it out to the bitter end. He's having too much fun and as he runs on negative emotion and hatred, he's like a pig in shit at this moment. He's normalized his insane tweets, his insane antics, his insane words. His supporters as we know, love him more and more each day as he goes through his miserable anger, fear, hatred, and vast incompetence/know nothing antics. I completely agree with you on Trump wanting to model the USA on Russia's present fig leaf democracy. He loves/fears Putin, which is the only way a despot like Trump can admire anyone, and in reality his love is based on his own interests surrounding the illegality he has committed with Russia financially and through the election.
