    So because an investigation has gone on for a year, it’s invalid?

    There's no logic, its wishful thinking.

    Trump and Trump fans don't do logic. They do fake news and propaganda.

    It is not the Collusion that will bring down Trump, it is the cover up of Russian contact. Either his son or son in law will be indicted first. Trump will be be indicted for his firing of Comey to stop the investigation of Flynn. Just like Clinton was not impeached for Whitewater, but for lying about Monica.

    watergate investigation investigated watergate.

    Benghazi investigation investigated Benghazi.

    Russian election interference investigation is investigating what now?

    because every single aspect of his investigation has been leaked to the press by Mueller.

    Trump adminstration and their ties with Russia and DNC email hacks.

    Funny how Watergate is essentially the same thing except it's digital and involves a world power advesary with quid pro quo sprinkled in.

    So far worse than Watergate actually.

    This will continue EXACTLY as long as the left can make political use of it.

    If it starts to wear thin, it will end.

    The ever so powerul left that can control a federal witch hunt with the rival political party in control of the House, Senate, SCOTUS and Executive branch.

    Such competence

    Watergate investigation started investigating what? Benghazi investigation started investigating what?

    And how do you know what Mueller is investigating? I posted what his investigation was intended to investigate... pretty clear he was given fairly broad investigatory powers:

    And you believe "because every single aspect of his investigation has been leaked to the press by Mueller."? LOL...

    I just find it hilarous that posters here actually believe that federal investigators release all information regarding a federal investigation to the general public in real time.

    Aaah, even they know its ridiculous. They also know trump is guilty... hence the frantic push to get Mueller's investigation shut down.

    Trump's investments with Russian and associates? Trump's organizations? Trump's transition team in a pretty big bomshell......

    I mean truthfully..... where do you expect them to go if not look into financials and the like?

    The White House loves announcing controversial news on Friday afternoons. Rosenstein is going to cave and fire Mueller as house shuts down investigation. Next step is to try and kill the FBI investigation but getting rid of all special counsel attorneys could kill everything.

    Really it's Rosenstein who should be worried about getting fired. Trump's prerequisite for positions in his government is loyalty above all. He could dump Rosenstein and put in someone who is loyal enough to shut down the investigation. Trump is an expert manipulator.

    The all powerful “Left” that has so much power it can (with no control of the Senate, house, or executive) force a Republican controlled Congress, Trumps own appointed DOJ, George W Bush’s FBI Director, and a grand jury to start an investigation, fund it, and force guilty pleas of two Trump officials and 2 indictments on 12 counts. We can also hire fake Russian actors to secretly meet with half a dozen Trump officials and roofie them so they have no memory of the meetings.

    Damn... us Libtards are good at what we do. Or maybe it’s just the Liberal Illuminati secret society.

    ....

    The investigation will end when it ends. At the very least Manafort, Gates, Pap, and Flynn have to go to trial. Not sure why the right just all the sudden has no idea how the judicial system works in this country. You don’t just snap your fingers and go to trial overnight. Theres no GDamn mandate from Nancy Pelosi, Obama, or Jay Z from their illuminati war room ordering Mueller to make stuff up.

    I sound like I’m joking with the Illuminati jokes but the only rational explanation to what folks on the right are hinting at would be the type of paranoid conspiracy theory dabbling or just simple ignorance of how our government, law enforcement, and judicial system works.

    I think this is solid projection.

    The left will attack Mueller. Exactly right, just the wrong side. The left will sustain this as long as it's good politic. Already right, as we have witnessed with benghazi.

    This suggests trump knew about Flynn's lawbreaking, kept Flynn in his administration role, and only fired Flynn after the WaPo reported on it. This bolsters potential obstruction charges against trump.

    White House Counsel Knew in January Flynn Probably Violated the Law
    Don McGahn was looking at whether the national security advisor violated federal laws just days after Trump moved into the White House.

    Please share with the group how you've been impacted by this investigatory burden Mueller has put on the whole country. Are you losing sleep? Lost productivity at work? Additional and unexpected costs? Less fulfilling sex? Longer commutes? The Ken Starr investigation went on for something like 4 years. There was a lot of complaining then too as I recall. But, it didn't kill us. Neither did it render Clinton an ineffective president. So, I know it must wear on you but this country is probably robust enough to sustain Mueller investigating for quite a long time to come if that's necessary.
