If President Trump wants to carry on, he has no choice. His only hope is to stop the special counsel. Why? Because everybody but everybody in Washington D.C., including many Republicans, and the east coast media want him gone. He is the only threat to their unlimited power. With a handful of Hillary supporter attorneys working with Counsel Chief Robert Mueller they will absolutely find something strong enough that will not only Impeach him in the House, but convict him in the Senate and he will be a goner.
Think of it for a moment. Nobody becomes a billionaire, especially in New York city project developments, without doing whatever with politicians, city officials, unions, contractors and whoever else needs to be taken care of to get a project done. Legal or otherwise. That is impossible. And this is only one area the Special Counsel could find what they need against him. Surely tax evasion is on the list. Legal arguments forever on tax legalities are endless. If that was strong enough to jail gangster Al Capone, it surely would be enough to take down a President. They’ll find something worthy or die trying.
The trajedy of it all is President Trump has many major accomplishments in a very short time. ISIS has lost their calafate. The VA is in major improvement. Mexican border crossings are down 60-70%. The economy is booming. Unemployment lowest in 20 years. Trade deals are being renegotiated. Who else but Trump would have the guts to tell other NATO countries to pay up their fair share. Many are now shamed into doing it. Many foreign lands respect him…France, the Saudi’s rolled out the red carpet, Israel, Muslim nations respected his speech given to over 50 leaders. Our enemies know he means what he says. Food stamp users are down. The stock market continues to soar because they know Obama’s regulations are ending. He is business friendly as growth and wages are up. An excellent Supreme Court judge now on the bench as other outstanding judges keep getting appointed. Sanctuary cities are now threatened. The gross domestic product went over 3% last quarter. Obama was pleased with 2% and really didn’t care. He had it in for business. The public knows little to nothing of Trump positives.
The question is…does President Trump have the power to get rid of the special counsel? First, understand that in order to appoint a special counsel there has to be a crime. There is none. They are merely looking for one. There are disagreements among constitutional scholars about the way the President could remove Mueller if he wanted to, and the legality of such moves. So yes Trump could end the special counsel. Some ways complicated. One is not.
After huge Democrat and media pressure over a phony dossier created by Trump’s enemies and the Democrat National Committee paying anywhere from six million to nine million dollars, it was Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s decision to appoint Robert Mueller to head a special counsel. Russia, Russia, Russia, with still no evidence, was the heated cry to Rosenstein. Attorney General Jeff Session recused himself from the Russia matter. Remember there was and is no crime to be investigated. President Trump could fire Rosenstein. But, some regulations say only the Attorney General (in this case the acting Attorney General) can remove the special counsel and it has to be with just cause. i.e. misconduct, dereliction of duty and so forth. With Rosenstein’s refusal, President Trump could keep firing replacements until one agrees to cancel out the special counsel. Very much a mess.
There are two other much more realistic possibilities to rid the special counsel. Neal Katyal, professor of national security law at Georgetown U. says Trump could order the special counsel regulations repealed then fire Mueller himself. Katyal helped write the regulations repeal doctrine in 1999 now cited by Rosenstein. At that time Attorney General Janet Reno had hired him to do so.
Jacksjargon believes the best and easiest way is this. Attorney General Jeff Sessions could non recuse himself BECAUSE THERE WAS NO CRIME to be investigated. Robert Mueller and his special counsel is simply an investigation. Merely end the investigation.
The uproar would be enormous. Almost never ending. But, largely nothing but endless noise. TV scholars would be coming out of the wood work. Their arguments against this tactic would seem logical, but a failure. And no impeachment could be pursued because the President broke no law(s). As jacksjargon sees it, it is either this or the end of the Trump Presidency. Take your pick.
Take heart dear faithful, keep in mind Congress has now given the green light for an FBI informant to testify. They lifted his non disclosure agreement. He has papers, emails, tapes and more to reveal the history of the FBI, Democrat National Committee and all of the Obama administration illegalities and cover ups. He wants to blow the lid off the real scandals and likely can do so.
That is unless he has some mysterious unfortunate accident before he gets his chance to testify.
