The National Quiz - One Simple Question

What happens when Muller finishes his investigation? No talking. Keep your eyes on your own paper. Begin now. You've got an hour. We'll review your answers after the test.

One hour later. Okay, let's go over some of these answers.

Nick, you wrote "We'll find out what really happened with Russia. We'll know whether Trump did anything illegal."

No Nick, that's not it. We already know more than we need to about whether Trump did anything illegal. Christ Nick, Trump is guilty as Hell and we all knew that before he won the election. What's that you say? I'm wrong?

Do you remember this guy Nick? No?

What about now?

How about her? No?

What about now?

What? I'm not being fair? We're a nation of laws? People are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law? Bullshit!

I didn't render a verdict here Nick. I just said we already know Trump is guilty as sin. We don't need a verdict to tell us what we already know.

Unfair? You thought I was talking about being found guilty of a crime in a court of law? The question was what happens when Mueller finishes his investigation. Pay attention.

Let's see, Jessica you wrote, "Trump will be found guilty of obstruction of justice." No. In order to be found guilty he would have to be tried in a court of law. When Mueller finishes his investigation that's not the same as a guilty verdict in a trial.

No. My question wasn't a trick question. It was a simple question.

Hey, Don't you all be lookin at me like that! Uh, Kathy you wrote, "I haven't a clue."

Cute. Very Cute. Moving on here - it appears that many of you have written slight variations on what Nick, Jessica and Kathy wrote. Give me a minute.

Clearly this is getting us nowhere. Welcome to Twitter where everybody becomes a dilettante. It's like going on a cruise. You don't go on a cruise to gain weight, but that's what happens to just about everybody.

We are way past the time when Donald Trump should have been impeached. The country is being shaken apart. Mueller is not the issue, but he has become the focal point.

God bless Mueller, he's looking into a can of worms. Someone has to, but Mueller is not what anybody should be talking about. Everybody should simply be doing their best to facilitate Mueller and his team.

Laurence Tribe put this ever so elegantly and ever so simply in a Tweet. He said, "Trump must be impeached for abusing his power and shredding the Constitution more monstrously than any other President in American history." Laurence is a constitutional law professor at Harvard Law School.

Why are so many Republican congressmen attacking Mueller and asking for him to be fired? Is it just because they are guilty as well? Is it that simple?

Trump is trying his damnedest to discredit both the investigation and the news media, but he's not firing him or arranging for Mueller to be fired. He's fired others. Why not Mueller?

When Mueller does finish his investigation, we're all going to be waiting for the other shoe to drop.

The other shoe should have dropped months ago, but this Kabuki Theater has served as a monumental distraction. As long as Mueller doesn't finish the investigation, people seem willing to forestall the inevitable.

The inevitable is impeachment.

Uh, but we could do that now. Yeah we could, but we haven't. This isn't about partisan politics it's about national security and the survival of the Republic. So what are we missing here?

Paul Ryan ain't gonna let it happen no matter what. Mueller could bring in videotapes of Trump committing numerous crimes, confessions from those who were involved and even numerous confessions from Trump, himself. It wouldn't matter.

Ryan won't let a vote for impeachment happen and, even if he did, the Republicans in the House would vote against it. Maybe that's why there are rumors about Ryan resigning. He doesn't want to be left holding the bag.

FOX news and Kellyanne Conway have talked about coups recently. It's not coincidental that this conversation is going on at the same time so many Republicans are trashing Mueller.

Ironically, a real coup took place the moment Donald Trump was sworn in as president. This is not hyperbole. This is a simple fact.

Putin is using good ole capitalism to destroy our country. He simply bought what he wanted on the open market. He bought a narcissistic fool. He bought corrupt politicians. He bought religious and special interests groups.

Can we regain control of our government? So many of you answered "I haven't a clue." on the quiz. The truth is the United States is now a full fledged kleptocracy.

Mueller can't save us. He can bring indictments against everybody who was involved in this abomination - all the crooks, all the traitors, but he can't do that until Trump and Pence are impeached and he can't impeach them.

If these bozos don't take bipartisan action and impeach Trump and Pence right now, it won't matter come 2018. The situation is way past critical.

Holy Moly!
