OK, so Trump has had a chance to "sleep on it."



We know that he "received notification" of the Cohen raid right around the time that the rest of us did, either through the media, or perhaps from a call from Chohen himself, but not before the FBI showed up at Cohen's door. There was no "warning"...they just went IN.

We know he wanted to bask in the glow of his big, beautiful, big Cabinet meeting as he introduced the shiny new 2018 model John Bolton.

He "welcomed" Bolton...who he assured "had the respect of everyone in this room." He shook his hand, and within 15 seconds, a reporter YELLED out "DID YOU HAVE AN AFFAIR WITH STORMY DANIELS?"

He snarled and grumbled over how a "good man" was attacked in what was an "attack on our country itself."

He went to his room, turned on Fox, wolfed down his Quarter Pounders with Cheese and fries and fried apple pies,

He eventually went to sleep, and now it's a new day.

What do we think is coming next? Mueller firing? A strike on Syria? Both?

2. Cohen raid,

Wasn't from the Mueller office, and was after they talked with Rosenstein after seeing possible crimes, which by law they have to act on, and after determining it was outside their mandate, it was referred to the New York US attorney, who had the raid carried out, and was a trump appointee, along with the Federal judge that signed the warrant making it completely legal. Trump's claim of being a law and order president is turning into a nightmare, as the law moves in on all these crooks. This is clearly no plausible excuse for Mueller to be fired, and would never stand up, and instead be another nail in his coffin for obstruction charges that will stick. Mueller's safe, but he'll capable of starting a war to redirect attention. If he were to fire him , he'll be reinstated I think, and be made untouchable from him, and he finishes his investigation. If anything he'll fire the US attorney for doing this. They'll also drop his nomination for the position he now holds. So watch how quickly trump tries to get someone who'll cover for him into that position very soon. Or another obstruction charge against him.

Man that must have been embarrassing for him. Big unveiling of the, literally, third team National Security Advisor goes POOF when all the news is that the FBI is inside the Trump compound. Damn shame.
