Well, it's time to boot up the LOCK HER UP threads since Trump made a fool on himself on Fox News.

This is an overly simplistic view of how power works in Washington I think. The Clintons are very powerful and have whole factions of the government loyal to them who protect them. Just because well meaning Republicans want to go after her doesn't mean they can. Also just because Republicans are Republicans doesn't mean many of them aren't playing ball with the Clintons either.

She is almost certainly guilty of high crimes just based on what has been released to the public, which we can assume isn't even the half of it. Whether she will ever fry for any of it though is anybody's guess. Somebody of her status doesn't go down easy...the leverage they wield over other powerful people is substantial. It takes a real avalanche of damning evidence, not unlike what happened to Madoff, Cosby, etc.

Republican Trey Gowdy is like an albino pit bull, ferocious and self-righteous. He grilled Hillary Clinton for 13 hours, going at her like a Great White after a seal. When it was done, he stepped in front of a mic, sweating, looking bewildered and perturbed and admitted they had nothing and he basically had wasted everyone's time and money. Hillary handed his ass to him and embarrassed him on national television. Since the election, he has had a year and a half to push for new investigations. But he hasn't. So if Gowdy isn't willing to extract his testicles to go for another round, it's because 1) there's nothing to go after or 2)what he could possibly go after is so thin that he'd be at risk for another ass-whooping.

It was illegal for Trump to even be able to run for office as a Republican.

It only took a month to catch the Austin Bomber...
Mueller must be milking the job.

So far, he has had to make stuff up, to get a charge on someone. You lied, now we are going to punish you.
the 1st amendment, allows lies as well as the truth.

A mountain of evidence against Trump will never convince the people who believe PizzaGate is a real thing.

I honestly have no idea why he inspires this kind of dedication in people - he would throw anyone if them under the bus if it gave him a single penny benefit. He's already working on downgrading Michael Cohen to a coffee boy he barely knew.
