I have been thinking all along ..why is Bob Mueller taking so long..
I am beginning to appreciate the magnitude of his effort only now.
He has build the massive wall of evidence brick by brick ..while People are hiding bricks..some bricks can't be had no matter what .. Lotsa people are trying to blow up the wall..some contractors sell you bad bricks that can be used anymore. And oh- he has one shot to succeed. Come what may ..Mueller is a true American Hero.

2. Right. For an investigation that stretches from NY to DC to Chicago
to Russia to Europe to Saudi Arabia, etc. . . . . it's been going quickly.

When all is said and done and the facts come out, Americans are going to be shocked at the scope of it.

5. It's a big investigation, but every day trump remains in office hurts our country more.
Mueller needs to move things along. In January, perhaps the House can interview him and get a better idea of where this is all headed and take appropriate action.

6. Thank goodness there was someone like him available.
A man who everyone seems to respect, except the criminals.
A man who is deeply serious about pursuing justice. A man who doesn't really care if anyone likes him or not, because he knows who he is. |

9. Compared to investigations of similar scope, Mueller has been moving very fast. He has already
indicted many of Trump's associates on the way to getting inside testimony from them. Americans are so impatient. Let the wheel of justice grind slowly and exceedingly fine as they properly carry out the Rule of Law.

21. Many Americans complain...
when they don't know the complete election results before it's bedtime on the east coast. Look at Ryan, hinting that California's election results are somehow tainted because they actually take the time to make sure all the votes are counted correctly.
![]() I'm just the opposite, and I think there are many Americans such as myself, who would be willing to wait a week or more for our election results as long as paper ballots are used, and there's a verifiable paper trail for honesty's sake. Our "instant gratification" society must take a step back with something as important as our elections on the line. The same goes for this, and any other honest investigation that originated through the proper channels. |

14. Mueller is the "real deal" when it comes to being a hero
He is in government to work for the betterment of our nation. It goes right back to his time in Vietnam. He was initially found to be unfit for military service. However, he worked hard to correct his physical condition and eventually was accepted. Instead of wishing to pursue an easier vocation in the Army, he wanted to serve as an Infantry Platoon Leader - which he did with distinction.
He is a lifelong republican, but the bottom line is he cares about our nation and constitution and he acts accordingly. I can respect republicans like that. |

15. And it's gonna be rock solid!
Anyone who still thinks that Dumpie and his filthy family are anything but ridiculous stooges planted by Russia to destroy our country are stoopid as fuck and need to staple their MAGAT hats to their dim domes.
Judgment Day is coming. And it'll be so-o-o-o-o-o nice. The midterm Democratic victory was heartening, and you can bet they're loaded for bear. And yes — Nancy Pelosi can't wait to get these bastards. Me neither! |

16. This investigation is not taking too long. It just feels that way.
What mueller has done in 18 months is amazing. Remember , over 30 people have been indicted already. It's a world wide investigation.

20. His investigation has moved along quickly, actually.
The investigation involved more people and more issues than the Watergate investigation, by far. Watergate took 2 years. The issues in the Mueller investigation were also more complex, and global. And involved many thousands of documents, all of which had to be sorted, reviewed, and analyzed.
He has a relatively small team, although the ones he has are the experts in their specialties. The cream of the crop. AND there have been no leaks, which is amazing. Carry on, Mr. Mueller. Carry on. Even if Mueller's report doesn't have a smoking gun for Trump himself, I will be satisfied that the investigation was thorough and as accurate as humanly possible. |

it would never have seen the light of day.

31. Mueller reminds me of another FBI guy,
Agent Sheldon in "Dog Day Afternoon." Sonny (Al Pacino) was able to chum with the NYC police detective played by Charles Durning; but as the afternoon turns into evening, Sheldon takes over, turns off the power to the bank and lets it be known he isn't going to give Sonny and his accomplice an inch more than he has to. And Sheldon talks with the confidence of someone who has dealt with similar situations before. With the air conditioning off, everybody is sweating, the atmosphere turns grim and you know Sonny's clock is ticking down.
