Obama is going to end up in jail.

Latest Strzok-Page text messages release proves that Obama was directing the spying against Trump, personally.

He should call for Obama, Bush, and Clinton. Call it a Triumvirate to save the Republic. Then Obama will wrist control from the other two.

What could possibly go wrong.

How do McCain, Romney and Linda fit in to this scenario?

Has Obama placed his order yet for the "Office of the Former President" seal?

Yeah, the lamb and the two wolves would vote on what to have for dinner. And the lamb would probably vote with the majority.....you know, in the spirit of bipartisanship.

*spit*

We ARE now in a Constitutional crisis, have been for the past 9 years, first with the 8 years of the Obama presidency and now with the “bloodless” civil war to undo a duly elected president. If idiots like Friedman want a REAL constitutional crisis, it will be a bloody civil war. The Mueller investigation is a farce and it is not fooling anyone with its “broad investigation”, LOOKING for something to reveal before the next election.

Since it will be a real CW, where it will be neighbor vs neighbor without a rear area, it will certainly be more brutal.

Thanks for making me feel better about the 14 inches of snow we are getting today in frigging April. Here it won't be neighbor against neighbor for at least 25 miles.

Don’t forget the Mueller was first appointed by Bush. This is all their revenge for Jebbie not getting elected.

That would be creating a Constitutional crisis.

Not ending one.

It must be something in the water over at PMSNBC. Get a load of this:

It’s going to have to be done in a bipartisan way by two ex-presidents who I think still have a lot of credibility, and my guess is they are saving their powder for that. I sure hope so because if Republican will not call the game, we’re going to need someone with legitimate authority to do so.

And what "legitimate authority" is that? Bush and 0bama are now private citizens, with no more power in the matter than that bum rolling a shopping cart down the street and just as unattractive. They aren't going to "step into" anything at all. You want a Constitutional crisis, try overthrowing an elected President with a pair of has-been political hacks. Friedman is hallucinating:

I believe the Mueller investigation, when it is finally put on the table before us, will trigger some form of constitutional crisis. I don’t know what he’s going to find about the president, whether it’s collusion, whether it’s financial impropriety, I have no idea. But I think it’s going to find something that will trigger a constitutional crisis.

So the meat of the matter is that Friedman has no idea of what Mueller might have, no concept of what sort of "constitutional crisis" might even be involved or how removal might be effected, and is hoping that someone from the outside will fly in on a magic carpet and take Trump away. The amazing thing is that he can recite this litany of embarrassment with a straight face. Fortunately inasmuch as it's MSNBC, nobody is watching.

“If those Uniparty shills try and overthrow our President then regrettably CW 2 is inevitable. And i fear it will be far bloodier and more brutal than the first CW.

True civil wars generally are. The only limits to the brutality of a real civil war are those that arise when the imagination runs out of ideas.

FB and Google are now being dragged into the coverup which started with Hillary, McCain, Harry Reid, FBI and CIA.
I have suspected for a couple years that the NSA is involved too with their building in UT.

The Machine is not going to go down easy...which means its time for the Bush Family to open their yap.

They are ex-presidents. They have no constitutional power.

What's he talking about?
