Does Trump look scared or panicked to you?

He is a desperate man.

He appointed Whitaker out of desperation, in my opinion. Who expected him to appoint someone as acting AG who had not been vetted or consented to by the Senate? I'm sure it surprised Mueller and Rosenstein also.

Desperate men do desperate things.

Trump does not want the Mueller investigation to be still going on when the Democrats take over the House in January.

He will do something to try and end it before then, in my opinion.

Between Thanksgiving and Christmas should be a very interesting time for everyone.

I would not be surprised if Whitaker asks Mueller to finish his investigation before Christmas. Otherwise, he will no longer have the job.

Trump is running scared. Nobody can predict what he might do.

but,he could care less. He has never been held accountable for any of his actions at any time in his life. Why would he care now?

he fired Sessions for his perceived lack of loyalty.

I really don't think he believes that it will cost him more than a fine or something.


He may be slightly nervous about the idea of his daughter-wife or one of his dim-witted sons going to prison, but he'd never fire Mueller to avoid that, it would give him something exciting to be angry and tweet about.

a couple legal so called Analyst,Trump will not be charged while seated as President.

With the new Democratic House of Congress,the Trump Crime Syndicate will be constricted in ways that They will pay a massive Financial Price.

My guess is,when New York finishes with this crowd,they will be broke,busted,bankrupt and a couple will do jail time.

Whenever you hear his name in the future he will be frowned upon like hitler.

But, to use the term we all love, HE PERSISTED.

I don't think he actually gives a fuck about anything, and for someone we revile as "stupid" (me included), he sure finds a way around EVERY SINGLE THING that people say is illegal, unconstitutional, or fattening!


He's just gonna plow ahead, and rely on the electoral college again in 2020, which could actually keep him in office.

He's behaving like a crazy person, but that's what he is.

I honestly think he thinks this will all blow over in his favor.

much of the time I've heard him in the past few days. His affect is way off imo.

Edit to clarify: Talking about public appearances, not tweets.
