Mueller investigation: My Prediction.

A lot of people, particularly progressives, are holding out hope that Mueller will be Trump's undoing. Findings of collusion, perverting justice and so on. You see this hope, openly and thinly disguised, on US media all the time.

Mueller is straight up guy, they say, veteran, FBI guy, patriotic to his back teeth. Maybe he is. But my prediction is this: Findings of wrong doing from his lackies, financial irregularities, but Trump clear of the big issues. Enough for Trump to claim vindication and go forth.

Why? Mueller is many things but mostly he is a Republican. I've watched these bastard GOPers and blood is thicker than water. They are only loyal to their class and party. He will bow to that Will, in my view. Behind the scenes, I'd bet that's going on. He'll have enough scalps to look good for his work, but Trump will walk. The financial stuff will go on in other courts and last forever, making rich lawyers even richer.

Reading Woodward's book recently, you get a sense of it in progress.

I hope I am wrong. Would love to be wrong. But you see if I am right. The religious loonies will continue to feel they are on a roll.

I see a big letdown coming for progressives in the US and around the world. The US system is stacked against the truth. It will be the country's undoing, I greatly fear
