Basically what this means is that if even Graham thinks Mueller’s investigation is corrupt, then there is ZERO chance of two thirds of the US Senate voting to remove Trump from office even if a Nancy Pelosi led House voted to impeach Trump(in the unlikely even of the Dems taking the House).

Impeachment of Trump has nothing to do with the Democrats.

The plan always was (and probably still is) for Mueller to give Ryan a fig leaf that would be enough for him to wrangle the 25 GOP votes needed to send charges to the Senate.

McConnell only needs 19 GOP Senators to convict, and I bet he has 30.

Excellent point. Trump only needs a relative handful of Republicans to stay in office, and if Graham is supporting him, then he’ll have most, if not all, of the Republicans on his side.
