Now he's sending a message to his deplorables ("Careful what you wish for Max)

Hang on folks.

2. I sure hope Mueller has anticipated this and gamed it out.

They know what this unhinged bastard is capable of.

They would have to have a plan B, wouldn't they? Right?

Somebody tell me, "Yes". Please say, "Yes".

3. I'm pretty sure Mueller realizes what can happen

He seems to be a pretty sharp guy.

That said, he's also an old school conservative, so may not be prepared to take an aggressive and proactive view of his mandate as special counsel.

4. I suspect he has a plan

I also suspect he has a plan that he will tell trump what will happen. I suspect trump will have a choice. Right now, every day trump stays in power is a small victory.

Trump may however be overtaken by events. His moneybags friends are losing wealth due to him. They may get there before Mueller.

One day away from the switch, and Hell's fury descends upon Trump and the RePutins.

What would that dead-man switch be and in what form, do you think?

Give me some hope here please! Thanks!

13. I can think of a few things.

For example, state prosecutors all over the country, locked and loaded with state charges against the Trump Family. These are pardon-proof.

Or a giant cache of documents, emails, voice intercepts, video, showing Trump in the act (espionage, pedophilia, money laundering, the works). If he doesn't hit "do not send" every day,

14. Trump has been threatening Mueller and Rosenstein since the day Mueller was appointed.

It would probably be bad for Republicans if Trump was to fire one of them now?
