Washington (CNN)There could be dark and unprecedented times ahead.

The FBI raid against Michael Cohen spiked President Donald Trump's rampant indignation over the Robert Mueller probe to previously unseen heights, multiplying the persecution complex he feels about the FBI and his own Justice Department and fueling his sense he's the target of a witch hunt.
And it suggests that Cohen, who paid off adult film star Stormy Daniels, could be a bridge between the two separate legal strands threatening Trump.
"There is no way that they are looking for things that don't connect to the President in some way," Anne Milgram, a former New Jersey attorney general told CNN's Anderson Cooper of the Cohen raid. "It really is an unbelievable day when you start to think about what is happening, what we are going to see next."
Trump's rage continued into Tuesday morning, when he tweeted that "Attorney--client privilege is dead!" and referred to a "A TOTAL WITCH HUNT!!!," his preferred moniker for Mueller's investigation.
Attorney--client privilege is dead!

4. Lashing out again

Can you imagine how the Pukes would have responded if Obama had constantly "lashed out"? This dented circus peanut screams and yells about everyone else and whines about the constant unfairness against him. Poor Widdle Donny...

6. tRump is pretty transparent when it comes to how he feels at any given moment.

He is absolutely helpless when it comes to controlling or at least concealing his emotions. His sense of what is appropriate and proper is suffering terribly during this period of investigation by Mueller. His display yesterday and recorded in excruciating detail for all time was a graphic indication of how far off the rails tRump has gone in his thinking. Many people are concerned and rightly so.

Can you imagine tRump entering and managing that meeting with his top military and cabinet officers in the state of mind he put on display at the beginning of the meeting? He was in an agitated, enraged mood and focused on something he considered a personal threat and affront to him. How on earth could he pivot and redirect his attention to Syria and the complicated decisions that need to be made? His anger toward the Mueller investigation and a half dozen individuals was consuming him and it appeared to be all he could do to sit there and not just scream like a wounded bear.

If members of Congress saw that display (and you know they did) and still think he should be left in office to continue to take us down the dangerous path he is on, we are well past screwed as a nation. The Congress is up to their eyeballs in the destruction of our nation as we know it. If there was any doubt, that should all be erased as we observe how they handle this latest debacle.

8. Granny starver lying Ryan is on a mission to blame the debt/deficit

on "entitlements" so he and the GOP can destroy them. tRump is the distractions they need to pull it off.

[Grammy23]

10. Indeed, SammyWinstonJack. They have an agenda to finish and they wont be diverted

from that task. Never mind that tRump’s personal woes and legal wars may destroy all of us. When have they ever had the opportunity like they have now to work through their agenda? They have a crazy man at the helm taking all the oxygen out of the room. All eyes are on tRump and the shenanigans he is planning. So what better time for Lying Ryan to dismantle Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid while so many are pre-occupied with the Buffoon in the Oval Office. Every day is a new sh*t show, so Ryan needn’t do a thing to distract us. Just get behind closed doors and fulfill his fondest wish.

Now more than ever we need to turn away from tRump and put eyes on Congress and what they do in the next few weeks and months. They know that things are building with Mueller so they must act quickly. Ryan is sneaky and devious and will do whatever it takes to get this done, including ignoring the biggest threat to our country in its history while he drastically changes the programs so many in our country rely on every single day. As bad as the things are with tRump, for now things in that arena are under control with Mueller’s investigation. So we can monitor Congress and focus on what they do about SS, Medicare and Medicaid. It is a juggling act but we can keep the balance going. Walk and chew gum at the same time. 😉
