(14,750 posts)that muehler already has sealed indictments against the tump clan, including the king.
The thinking is if trump moves to remove sessions, muehler will unseal the indictments and create an instant conflict of interest to removing him.
Now that WOULD be a constitutional crisis. It would in essence be an indicted president firing the prosecutor to bury the charges. Not potential charges. Actual charges.
That would get heard by scotus almost instantly I would imagine, and they would likely decide quickly as they did in bush v gore. Unfortunately I don't see the court majority flipping against trump. They have shown they are a political branch of government, and they have been known to decide in a way that doesn't set long term precedent.
I hate to be negative, but we are screwed at the scotus.
