Wednesday,July 24. 2019: A day the Trump presidency gets shaken to its core. How are you preparing?

I'm preparing by reading the Mueller report sentence by sentence, line by line. I've also taken that day off work. You taking time off that day? Are you having viewing parties? No viewing party for me. What network you watching? I'll switch between all 5 respectable broadcast/cable nets to get a full flavor as Mueller breathes fire like a dragon at 1600. One thing is for sure, at the end of his testimony, it's a new day in America and the game will be afoot.

He’s still a Republican. He is the epitome of reserve and I’ll be thrilled if anything of significance is revealed.

I dont think it will have such an immediate and drastic effect. Mueller already said he will mostly stick to the report. That's already baked in. We may learn useful details bit I doubt it will be a smoking gun.

Then, when the hearing is over, they will spin it like a top.

I'm preparing for all the posts about how Mueller is just a repuke after all and we couldn't expect much.


Because he will NOT say anything that isn't already in the report.

I got tired of waiting for the Mueller report to really be Trump's end. If Mueller had anything to say that seriously contradicted the Barr summary, he's had ample opportunity and time to get it out there.

I'm leaving the patch, you stay and wait for the Great Pumpkin if you want to.

Unless Mueller utters the words that Trump would have been charged with obstruction if not for that "rule," nothing will change.

the sight of Republicans doing their shtick is too much for me. I quit reading the Report in the middle-ish of Part II. I tend to attempt to read the redacted parts, which then has me forgetting what I just read. It's like sputter-reading.
