Seems a bit of brain dead nonsense to me.

Do you have data and proof that you didn't collude with Russian foreign agents last year?

How ridiculous.

How about learning from the examples of nixon and clinton? Blasting over and over again that it is a "witch hunt", threatening investigators and his own staff, changing the story ever other day... he needs to shut up and deal quietly through his attorney. Oh, wait, his attorney is almost as bad as he is, so that won't work. Won't we all be soooo glad when this is over and the facts are out there? Or, don't you want that?

Haha, exactly.

Or did Trump get the heads up Mueller was investigating his businesses and then he said something?

Apparently, Mr. Trump approached his 'run for POTUS' the same way he approached his business dealings, 'With High Risk Comes High Rewards'. He was rewarded for the 'high risks' he & his campaign management took with the US Presidency.

As Mr. Trump is well aware, high risks don't always pan out, high risks can produce or lead to high pain or losses, particularly when circumstances or conditions change (which is likely always & in all ways).

He might've been in a better position if he had 'come clean' from the start by releasing his tax returns. I know that's hind sight but the American people can be forgiving if they see the benefits.

I've always wondered why Trump decided to put himself in the position of being so scrutinized. He didn't need this...but then I come around to the fact that I think he thought he could control the entire narrative of the government so that he was untouchable. He was able to do that in his business and I think he believed that the President was more like a King or a Boss and he could stop anything that dug too deep. And certainly, Cult 45, believes he should be able to.

So he has yet more turnover, now it's with his legal team. How much more turnover will we see with this guy? This after throwing his Attorney General, one of his closest supporters, under the bus for recusing himself when he had no choice.

The clown show roles on.

It just looks like he was pointing the way. They were already there.
Wholeheartedly agree with everything said here.

Let's face it, Mr. Trump has been 'down this road (many times) before' he knows the drill.

The only difference now is that he's POTUS. The American people's interests are tied to his own. What's 'good for Trump Org' is not necessarily what's good for the USA & the American people.

Many NYers have expressed similar wonderings ~ personally I have no clue, except to say I understand what you're saying here & wonder as well.
