Watergate crew, they got them..but it took time..Mueller will get them, and it will also take time..

And Mueller will get them...

Those of us who lived through this and watched this, thought a couple of them might go down..But the investigation proved they had all committed crimes. Gerald Ford pardoned Nixon for all crimes...otherwise he probably would have been charged..(no one knows)..But it took time...I want it over with now, but that will not happen now..But Mueller will get them......!!!

Drumpf and the Repugs will pull out ALL the stops (ALL!!!) To stop the investigation, and/render it . This is the difference.
