I don't think it will be President trump facing a prosecutor. It will be many members of the left.

Oh wow ... that caught me of guard. First time I entered this thread.

Nothing but empty, wishful thinking by those who thought they had a slam dunk victory - who actually got dunked on.

Instead of being angry at the media and others who mislead them and lied to them about the facts, they remain angry at the man who won fair and square.

Instead of self-reflecting, admitting fault, and using that as medicine for self-improvement... they've doubled down, tripled down, and careened off into delusion, anger, and hatred.

There's still time to return to sanity.  It all starts with one step.  Then another, and another...

Just like an addiction or weight loss... the problem didn't happen overnight.  It can't possibly be fixed overnight.

WE the people.  You can come back whenever you chose.

Or, remain in the self induced fog.

Your choice.

I haven't seen any evidence of collusion by Trump himself.   There seems to be growing evidence of collusion by the people around him.   There's also the opinion of all of our intelligence agencies that the Russians were engaged in a major covert operation attempting to influence our election in Trump's favor.  

It kind of begs the question, why do so many people who were in the Trump campaign or involved with Trump decide to lie to the FBI and the Special Counsel?   And why does Trump constantly scream bloody murder about the investigation?  If he would just say, and only in response to a question, "I don't care, I have nothing to hide." and leave it at that, we wouldn't be paying so much attention.  This is where Trump's lack of political experience hurts him.  An experienced politician would not be making himself  look so guilty.  

As for the Mueller investigation being "a big nothing burger," we have yet to see the report, and so far there have been multiple convictions and jail sentences for people who were in the Trump campaign.  Again, I attribute some of this to Trump's lack of political experience.   He didn't have a surrounding cast of political operatives who had been with him for years, so he had to scramble to get people around him to fill roles in the campaign, and he wound up with some people who didn't understand how to stay out of trouble.
