Trumps number one weapon, number one defense will be his downfall.

Fear. Once you watch Trump long enough you realize he is like a broken record. He repeats the same patterns over and over again.

During his entire life Trump has threatened people to get his way. He has been involved in thousands of lawsuits. He has threatened to sue thousands of times. He gets people to sign non disclosure forms. This has worked for him for decades because he has so much more money than the people he is attacking. When Trump loses he buys his way out. He will settle and pay a fine.

Trump does not listen to lawyers. He hires lawyers and tells them to attack. That is what he is doing now with the investigation. It will not work. Threatening Mueller will not work. He can't settle and pay his way out. Trump is going down and it's going to be brutal on him and his family. Trump is going to pay for a life time of being an evil asshole.

1. Yep, this has been building up for a while...

I agree with what you're saying, but it won't be automatic.

2. I like the way you think!

And I believe you're correct. Trump has opened a huge can of whip-ass and it's unlike anything he knows. His past strategies will not work in the world of politics and his demise will be epic.

My greatest hope is that he is destroyed by his malfeasance and criminality. The resulting destruction of his crime family will be icing on the cake.

3. Like a classic Greek Tragedy...

Epic narcissism & hubris come to an equally epic end.

5. And he said he's happy with his legal team just the way it is !

Buh Bye Dotard Donnie.

6. I also suspect he won't try to fire Mueller

until it is far too late.

It would never occur to him that he could actually face consequences for any action he takes. He has never faced any before, beyond a fine.

7. The key question is when will the GOP break from him as they should?

Or have they given him a free pass, no matter what.

It certainly looks that way.

Possibly because mcconnell and ryan etc are all implicated in the collusion, election fraud etc

8. Maybe Trump will get Rudy to defend him.

No one else wants to.

9. Trump believes he can out smart Mueller.

Trump does not understand when Mueller brings countless charges against him, his defense will not work. I don't believe he understands how much trouble he is in. When Trump talks to Mueller he will commit perjury probably many times. Mueller is the major leagues, Trump is little league.
