The raid on Trump’s lawyer: Why? And why now?
"...President Trump was negotiating conditions for his interview with the special counsel that were restrictive as to what could be asked. Perhaps Mueller determined that it was unlikely to be productive.
This raid now virtually precludes such an interview being agreed to. This will enable Mueller to seek a grand jury subpoena, which would lead to free questioning of the president with no counsel present. Trump can be expected to decline to honor such a subpoena, which would set off a constitutional crisis and help along the impeachment movement.
Now the FBI that is embarrassed and potentially criminally liable for its behavior in the FISA warrant application
has free rein to examine the private and legally protected communications between Trump and his lawyer and to fish for further lines of inquiry, even if legally constrained from using evidence that is legally protected. The president and the public are supposed to trust that a separate group of FBI agents specially trained in examining protected attorney-client communications will fully safeguard the interests of the president and his counsel...."
"....There is an election in four-plus months, in which control of the House of Representatives and the Senate is at stake.
Even if the evidence developed out of the raid is thrown out of court in any resulting prosecution, that is irrelevant. What is important is the ammunition to be developed and leaked to pet media outlets that can be used to sway voters to elect an impeachment Congress.
My strong suspicion is that, having failed to find anything related to his mandate,
Robert Mueller is baiting the president to fire him. By
stepping over the line and fishing for evidence in confidential and privileged attorney-client relations, he is misbehaving, but doing so through a cut-out, the U.S. attorney in New York.
He wants the firestorm that would result to push control of Congress into Democrat hands."
It blows my mind at how blatant and flagrant and 'in your face' this is, and for all to see. They're actually out to destroy him and undo his election by the people.
But how many Americans recognize it, or even care?
