Trump has his first candidate to be his next Attorney-General...

None other than the former Special Counsel, Robert Hur.

He would help Trump shut down any and all investigations, would be my opinion.

When asked by a Congressman at his hearing, if he would take a position in a new Trump Administration, he just smiled and refused to answer.

Isn't it about time to send a company of FBI agents to Mar-a-lago and put him in custody? This whole "rule of law" thing is taking way too long.

Potential candidates for any and all top positions as a sort of Ferris wheel arrangement where anyone could reach the top of the list of offices to hold at any given time.

I'm sure it's no more organized than that in the magat infested mind of the orange menace.

He did that already when he had Billy Barr as AG as his personal Lawyer.

He did that thinking that the Supreme Court was his personal Court Room.

He did that with the Dept. of The Treasury thinking it was his personal Piggy Bank.

He tried to do that with both Houses of Congress thinking that he was in charge and told them what law to enact and pass. When he could not get his way, he ruled by fiat.

Democrats are going to do well in November in both Houses and down ballot. With Democrats in charge, TSF (should he win ) will find himself boxed in and the Constitution holds. This time knowing who he is, the Senate will vote for conviction should he face yet another impeachment.

Because my experience has been that who looks the part of a villain in the real world tends to be a white man.
