And remember that the head of the SDNY DoJ office is a Trump appointee who got in to permanent appointment through the back door so to speak
He has recused himself from any connection with the Cohen investigation because of being Trump's appointee

Wow, the action is speeding up.

Word from the WH is that Orange Snowflake is REALLY melting...and that comes from his "friends". Of course, people like Trump don't really have friends...just those he buys with money and threatens with lawsuits....

I sense a bit of a tipping point.

Four guys are now convicted felons and who knows how many more will be convicted, all because Donald Trump had a personal score to settle with Barack Obama. Most of these guys have no doubt squirreled away enough money to buy off a prison guard or two in order to have a soft landing in prison. If not, there is always soap on a rope.

That makes it Clinton 20 and Trump 8. However I expect Trump to get real close to Clinton's numbers.

Ahhh. The two party system. Gotta love it.
There are many more than 8 guilty counts for Trump associates.

Just today 8 for Manafort, 8 for Cohen. Add Flynn 1, and Gates 2 and Papadopolous 1.

That's 20 for Trump associates and I might have missed some guilty pleas. Manafort has another case next month and the potential for retrial of 10 charges. Stone, Trump Jr and Kushner likely will be charged at some point.

Why would he make a deal when it's a mistrial? Mueller is not going to go through it again because there would be alot less political capital to do so, plus high chance of the same result. So no dice on that.
