Trump supporters fear Mueller’s peek into business dealings will be fatal blow

The threat of an expanding special counsel investigation into President Trump’s finances has rattled his conservative base with fears that the New York billionaire could be brought down by shady business deals — not collusion with Russia.

Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller has widened the scope of the Russia investigation to include Mr. Trump’s business deals, according to a Bloomberg News report.

The president had warned that such a move would cross a line.

“Those transactions are in my view well beyond the mandate of the special counsel, are unrelated to the election of 2016 or any alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, and most importantly, are well beyond any statute of limitation imposed by the United States Code,” said John Dowd, Mr. Trump’s private attorney.

Moving the investigation into deals going back more than a decade also irked Mr. Trump’s staunchest supporters, though they remain convinced that there was never collusion with Russia and that the special counsel is part of an open conspiracy to remove the president.

I and most of FR are Trump supporters and Mueller's "peek" is nothing more than a fishing expedition fueled by the Uniparty.

Shut it down!

[Parley Baer]

No fear here.

Fatal blow for Mueller and the swamp.

[VermithraxPejorative]

This just proves how desperate Mueller is at this point. They are going back decades in business dealings. They have zero evidence.

It will be a fatal blow - to Mueller and the Trump haters.

I hope Trump has a team compiling dirt on Mueller and his team for release soon.

[goodnesswins]

Hahaha...a peek into the Clinton’s would be the “fatal blow”...I’m not skeeered

[SaveFerris]

[fatal blow]

Hahahahahahahahaha.

Who? Some GOPe hack? LOL

Yeah, right.

In other words, leftists know who is guilty. The deep state just needs to find some charges, somewhere, anywhere that will stick. And they will keep looking for the next seven years.

I can’t wait to see what conservative activists will do to the next democrat in our White House. I pray that it will be an epic, marathon demonstration of “weaponized autism” at its best. America’s enemies in the Ctrl-Left set the standard, so it’s only fair for what they call the Alt-Right to respond in kind.

[wastedyears]

Balance sheet.

[jazusamo]

Absolutely!

[pfflier]

It was posted here in FR awhile ago that a president can only be impeached for actions committed while in office.

[Chgogal]

Fear? Hell no. I am pissed off that the ___cking Democrats and Deep State let the Clintons get away with selling 20% of the US’ uranium resources to Russia and not a word. I am pissed off that SOS can have an illegal hackable personal server to do the country's business and not a word. Yet, Trump is under investigation! And what does Sessions do? Nada! Need I go on?

This is how they plan to protect their 30 year bipartisan plan to flood the country with foreigners.

We finally elect a President who WILL enforce the laws and borders and the Uniparty just will not allow that.

[Helotes]

It ain’t bean bag is it?. They better buckle up and I mean the dims.

They have the media and the experience but are over matched intellectually.

This was never going to be easy but he can do it.

[hal ogen]

...”fatal blow” to the GOPe, never-Trumpers and the DIMs. I believe their are surprises on the horizon for these sedionist cretins and creeps.

[Logical me]

President Trump is making a huge mistake and he will face impeachment. And his lack of fighting this by firing Mueller and disbanding the Council is his downfall. What happened to this man I will never know. He must stop talking and do it.
