Likely reason Twitler haz a mad

It is hard to say what’s causing Trump’s current Mueller meltdown. But if reports are true that he and his lawyers are working on answering written questions from the Special Counsel, that probably has him especially on edge. One question in particular poses a huge dilemma for Trump: Did you know in advance about Don Jr.’s Trump Tower meeting with the Russians? Obviously, he did. He likely authorized the meeting and got a read out right after it. Why else would he have dictated the bogus “adoption” cover story? Why else, in the days prior to the meeting, would he have promised explosive information about Hillary to come out shortly after it? And Mueller no doubt has additional evidence of Trump’s foreknowledge (from Gates, Manafort, Cohen, phone records, etc.).

Now, Trump has to decide whether to admit the obvious, or continue his obstruction and denial. If he admits it, he risks (a) implicating his son in perjury for lying to Congress; (b) incriminating himself in a scheme to obstruct justice by concocting a bogus cover story about the meeting; and (c) providing direct evidence of his intent to conspire with potential Russian agents. If he denies it, it will likely provide an open and shut false statement case to Mueller on top of whatever else they have on him. I’m not sure how his lawyers will try to thread this needle, but I predict some sort of lawyered up version of an evasive “I don’t recall.” That won’t be credible either coming from someone who once boasted of having one of the “great memories of all time,” but it’s probably the only place he can go other than simply refusing to answer. Regardless, he’s in a box and he knows it. So he’s lashing out.

1. He's caught and he knows it.

[Wounded Bear]

7. Sure looks like it...

The Mexicans are surrounding the Alamo and there is no relief column coming.

All the bullshit Trump used to get away with in civil court and small claims court isn't working now, and he's starting to realize it.

[PJMcK]

28. Good observation

All of Trump's previous legal experience has been in non-criminal courts. Plus, the legal oppositions he faced in the past were most likely not as skilled or as well-funded as are Robert Mueller's team and the NY Attorney General. He's boxed in and he's running out of options.

I've hated Trump since the early 1980s. Watching him being taken down will be enormously satisfying.

[Dave Starsky]

34. I couldn't stand him since Day One.

NOBODY likes an asshole, and he has always reveled in being one. He gets off on it.

[malaise]

14. Ding ding

Caught!

[guillaumeb]

2. Recommended.

[mr_lebowski]

3. Sounds extremely plausible ...

Being huddled down with Lawyers on Monday is likely an additional reason he didn't bother to show at Arlington on Monday, and had basically no public agenda Tues or Wed (aside from giving a stupid, lie-filled interview with a White Nationalist Website).

[Talitha]

31. Or maybe nerves turned his guts to water

and he couldn't get off the 'throne'.

[flibbitygiblets]

4. Prepare yourself: The man with the greatest memory in history is about to pull a "I don't recall"

It's his only hope. And his rube base will buy it of course.

Holy hell is going to happen when Donald Junior goes down. And that douchebag is going DOWN.

[Kurt V.]

30. +1

[Bluesaph]

5. He should take the 5th and resign

The gig is up.

[ScratchCat]

6. Yeh, I opined about the same thing yesterday and agree

Muller has the identity of the blocked number on Jr's phone. His choices are limited. He admits Jr. lied or he lies.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

8. This video illustrates how Trump (the fish) must feel right now:

Caught by his endless lies and pursued by Robert Mueller, there's nowhere safe he can hide.

[Roland99]

9. Fish is either Jr or Twitler himself. Heh

[NewJeffCT]

10. Can Donny Dollhands take the 5th

on written responses to questions?

[lagomorph777]

12. Sure, but as he's already admitted, "You don't plead the 5th if you're not guilty."

Of course, he said that about Hillary, but it's on video and will be played in court.

[lagomorph777]

11. There is probably a long list of questions; each one places Trump in jeopardy.

He will have to choose between lying, confessing, or Article 25-level mental incompetence.

[Jersey Devil]

13. Between a rock and a hard place

Any way he answers, Mueller has him nailed. Nice.

[RainCaster]

15. That echo between his ears must really bother him

This moron is the best moron our country has ever produced.

[MyOwnPeace]

17. You owe me a keyboard!

SERIOUS coke-spew from "That echo between his ears must really bother him!"

[sprinkleeninow]

24. "High quality moron."

[Blue Owl]

16. Diaper Donnie done a bad, baaadd thing...

n/t

[world wide wally]

18. He won't even admit that the Republicans lost the midterms

[BlueJac]

19. Lovin' every minute of it!

ty!

[Ferrets are Cool]

20. Mad, rabid, cornered dogs are dangerous. nt

[sandensea]

21. Cheeto's going to Sessions this all the way.

[SergeStorms]

22. Little Donnie has never been held accountable before.

And now he's up to that mess on top of his head in trouble. Little Donnie doesn't know what to do. Being a "stable genius" hasn't prepared him for what's coming, I guess. I guess this is why Melanie has been pretending to like him lately as well. She actually feels sorry for the poor, stupid schmuck.

[Volaris]

32. And I'd wager she's gonna keep feeling that way until he goes to prison and

It's time for her to file for divorce and take what's left of his on-hand currency lol.

Not that she deserves it, but it WILL be fun to watch.

[SergeStorms]

36. I agree.

She's just biding her time, and living up to her pre-nup and non-disclosure agreements. She's really no better than Little Donnie. Here's a Yahoo story about some book coming out about Trump's wives. Her chapter(s) are very informative about the "worst lady" in the White House, or so I understand. I haven't read the book, just the article about it. Enjoy!

23. Trapped Like a Rat...

[lpbk2713]

25. Oh what a tangled web we weave ...

He's painted himself into a corner and he's not alert enough to get himself out.

[Grammy23]

26. His lawyers have, no doubt, given him all the plausible options and maybe even a few that

Are ludicrous on the face of it. So now tRump is struggling with which door to open. There really are NO good options. He will have to sacrifice someone or something no matter which one he chooses. This is new territory for him since he is used to things going his way or buying his way out of trouble. I can only imagine the wheels turning and squeaking inside his noggin’ as he pisses and moans how to get himself out of this mess. No wonder he has been having a sad.

The good news for the rest of us watching this debacle keep unfolding is that Mueller has lots more news to hand tRump and to the public. I have a feeling that tRump’s agony is just getting started.
And our celebration at his demise is in the planning stages. Is it too soon to talk about dancing in the streets?? 🎉🎉🎉🎉🍾🥂🍾🥂💃🕺🏼💃🕺🏼💃🕺🏼🎉🎉🎉🎉

[MoonRiver]

27. Hahaha!

Between a rock and NO place!

[ProudMNDemocrat]

29. This is getting good. Better than I thought.

When the shit hits the fan, the Trumpers of America are going to go berserk. The Media will the sharks in this feeding frenzy, and the Trumps have no way out.

Fall on your sword or be skewered before the public.

[klook]

33. And while they're at it, they should go ahead and ask about salacious details

of his trysts with porn stars and "models"... I mean, if that sort of thing was not off limits for the Starr investigation into Whitewater, it should be relevant here, eh? No chance of a perjury trap there!

[Still In Wisconsin]

35. He will let Don, Jr. take the fall before he implicates himself. Everyone but Ivanka is expendable

and Ivanka would be expendable too if she wasn't such an "nice piece of ass." His words, not mine.
