I need more cowbell I'm starting to lose my natural high over mueller indictments

Was elated in good mood over the guilty plea of George papdopolus. I loved how mueller sucked trump in with manafort and gates. Trump starts texting nothing to see here and then mueller ambushed him with papdopolus.( I need more cowbell)

Make it a weekly event. Tease indictments on Friday evening, have everyone speculating over the weekend. Then drop them Monday morning -- having everyone talk about it all during the week.

I mean the weekly format works for prestige TV .

Make this a Friday event.

Would he do that? Is it professional? Mueller is nothing but professional. I guess we will see.

If he thinks that the increased exposure helps solidify his position as Special Counsel, putting pressure on Congress to protect the investigation, then I could see him doing it. Of course, this sort of presupposes that he's got pretty much everyone nailed already... which might be too much to hope for at this point. But who knows?

The Internet is ablaze about this and seems to be growing. tRump's polling numbers are down. Chaos and mistrust with the West Wing is spiking. Mueller has several more people to interview within the next week. tRump is said to want to fire Mueller badly. Incriminating information about WH cronies is coming out almost ever couple of hours.

Hang on man! There are rapids ahead.

10. I remember Watergate. It took months. One drip at a time at first. Then drips became plops.

The plops became a cow pissing on a rock. Finally the dam broke.

I don't think Mueller will be playing a lot of cat and mouse with these creeps.

He's given them a lot to think about for starters. Now he can move forward at a steady and rational pace.
