Please stop with the "quiet investigation" and the "prosecute years later" thingies.
Investigate and prosecute now.
Certain things need to be done during the second term so they aren’t campaign issues. Prosecuting enemies of the state will be reported as “Trump acting just like Hitler” in the media and a certain percentage will believe them.
Trump can do these things in 2021 when the political blowback will be less. You don’t want to do upsetting things (and these will be upsetting to many people particularly if it includes executions) during election season.
Trump was amazingly patient during this whole Mueller investigation and often deferred to others as if he was just a bystander when he probably knew much more and wanted to shout it to the rooftops. He enjoys setting traps and then springing them after the enemy thinks they have him.
I’m not saying don’t start investigating. All I’m saying is don’t go to trial until after the re-election. I’d love to see Brennan, Clapper and McCabe frog-marched out of their homes during 5 a.m. raids and taken to jail. That would be way cool. But timing is everything.
Have some sense.
