Let’s Stop Talking Collusion
We’ve all heard it…hell, most of us have spoken it. We know it’s as true as our knowledge that the sun will rise in the east tomorrow. The Russians worked to get Donald Trump elected to the most powerful office in the world. And he and his team colluded with them, and WikiLeaks, to do just that. And NOW, the worst president in the history of the United States is now infesting OUR White House, twitter raging from the toilet and binging on Fox Noise. Jesus, what a travesty.
But, I digress. As we all know, Mike Flynn, fired National Security Advisor and now confessed felon, flipped on Trump to save himself and his son from long sentences in federal prison. Where that goes can’t be good for whoever is left in the White House. But let’s look at what Mueller got Flynn to plead to, which is lying to the FBI. To me, this points to Mueller’s direction in this case, which is not collusion, which will be very tough to prove and prosecute, but to obstruction of justice. Trump’s spastic and ever-changing stories on Russia, Comey’s firing, Flynn’s firing, and his chaotic administration all point to Trump’s desperate attempt to lie his way out of this problem, but it’s not working. The more he lies, the more press he gets, but also the brighter the spotlight shines.
In his past life as a real estate promoter and game show host, Trump lied on a regular basis. He has not held to any normalized standard because he was only screwing his investors, his contractors, his game show contestants, and his banks. Now he’s screwing around on the world stage, and his conduct just simply won’t fly here. Because he’s a tool for the hard right conservatives in the congress they enable this abhorrent behavior. However, once Mueller and the FBI make their case, it will be virtually impossible to protect him.
I have been saying since the first moment of this train wreck, the Trump administration will not end well. Those who voted for him and still support him will have to explain to their grandkids why they did.
