Meanwhile on the Ship

It's obvious there was a strong desire by high officials in the criminal justice part of the government weren't happy about Trump. The campaign was harassed, and the presidency a constant barrage by detractors, the press, and officials with an agenda. The efforts led to some revelations that don't look good for those involved.

I'm beginning to wonder if the rats are about to leave the ship. At this point, Muellor can close the investigation, show there wasn't any evidence to support election tampering, and move away from the constant scrutiny by the public. By doing so, I doubt the investigation into those involved with criminal conspiracy will go far into the past, when Muellor was director. Even if it does, doing the right thing will be much better than being investigated as part of a conspiracy, while as an independent council.

Many things are in play, but the Democrats have only one avenue to continue their agenda, and that is easily closed with a strong Republican turnout in the mid-terms. They can't close investigations if they don't control Congress.

This one is interesting to watch, since the corruption makes Nixon's problems look small. The criminals involved with the current effort to destroy Trump are not small players. Instead of just trying to cover up the activities of a few, those involved were organized, had tremendous power, and attempted to destroy an election. If the trail leads back to the last President, the nation will discover how rotten politics have become. Hopefully, the reaction will be an effort by voters to do a better job of vetting those they place in office.
