The Mueller Report: Republicans in congress will be unable to deny, dismiss, look the other away. [View all]

The Mueller Report will read like an indictment. An indictment so damning congress will have to act. The charges will be severe and the American people will learn the truth. The American people will be shocked and angered by the Mueller Report. The evidence will be overwhelming and foolproof.

Trumps base will not be able to protect him. The Supreme Court will not protect him. Roberts will do right. He will follow law.

If the Democrats take back the house they will do their duty after The Mueller Report comes out. They will vote to impeach. It then goes to the Senate and 2/3 of the Senate must vote to convict. Many people are saying that will never happen. I disagree, The evidence will be so clear they will be forced to convict. Not doing so would be political suicide.

That's how I see it. Only time will tell if I am right or wrong. First, we have to win back the house.
