“Very bad news for Trump” – expert says Robert Mueller’s report is about to be devastating
It’s been nearly twenty-four hours since multiple major news outlets reported that Special Counsel Robert Mueller is preparing to issue his report about Donald Trump as soon as next week. There has been a lot of hand wringing over this, as it’s caught everyone by surprise, and no one is sure what to make of it. But one expert with some Special Counsel experience says the whole thing is about to be devastating for Trump.
The current Special Counsel regulations were drafted back in the nineties by Neal Katyal, who has since gone on to become a regular MSNBC commentator. In the wake of the news about Robert Mueller supposedly issuing his report next week, Katyal has written an in depth piece about what it’ll mean for Donald Trump. His summation is this: “if Mueller reports next week, very bad news for Trump.” So why is that?
Katyal spells out that Robert Mueller’s report could simply be a summation of Donald Trump’s crimes, designed to serve as a roadmap for House Democrats to carry out public hearings and impeachment, and for prosecutors such as SDNY to carry out criminal cases against everyone involved. Katyal agrees with Palmer Report’s position that, due to overwhelming public pressure and interest, there is no way that new Attorney General William Barr can simply stick Mueller’s report in a drawer, or release a dishonestly edited version of it, and get away with it.
The bottom line is that Robert Mueller’s report – whenever it arrives – is going to mark the beginning of the end of Donald Trump. It’ll set off a thousand flashing red lights in all directions, and a tsunami of criminal charges and indictments coming from every relevant prosecutor out there. Trump might want to enjoy these last days of relative calm while he still can.
