My prediction for next Sunday morning

just put this on Twitter as well.

On Sunday morning, Trump will fire Jeff Sessions and then appoint Greg Pruitt to be AG. Since Pruitt was already confirmed by the Senate, he can take over the role.

Pruitt then fires Rosenstein and then Mueller.

All this to steal the attention away from Stormy Daniels on 60 Minutes

There is largely a direct correlation between approval rating and enthusiasm Tiggeroshii Mar 2018 #13

He’ll lie to his base and say his approval ratings are “through the roof” and they’ll believe him since they don’t watch real news.

Besides, with friends like Putin, who needs approval ratings?

Bush approval in 2002 was in the 80s when thy gained seats Bushs in 2006 was in the 30s when the Democrats had a wave election, and in 2010 Obamas was in the 40s when the Republicans won a record number of seats. The lower his approval across the board, the more seats we win on midterms.
