Trump Is Reality TV, Mueller Is The Wire

[a500lbgorilla]

You know it's true. And wuf, I know you're going to try to turn the analogy in favor of Trump with some sort of diatribe about how reality TV has done much more to shape blah blah blah-- but, you know, come on, lol

Boost, you are forever my boy for this.

Trump is noise, Mueller is quality. No overlap.

Mueller is quality.

Wut??

He's indicted George Popadopoulous for down-playing his relationship with a Russian. No one expected Trump to win, and when he did, Pops had the opportunity of the lifetime. Meuller hauled the guy in and offered him a choice A) Tell us about this fruitless relationship, put the stink of Russia all over you, and sacrifice your career. Or B) Try and lie.

He's indicted Mike Flynn for making false statements. Though there is PLENTY of evidence to suggest that's bullshit. In fact, it was reported this week that a judge is reviewing Flynn's guilty plea, suspecting he made it to avoid a costly legal defense, or to ease some other legal problems that his Flynn's son is having.

He's indicted Manafort and Gates for some totally unrelated shit. Gates has plead guilty, which means he's cooperating against Manafort. This means that Manafort is in a gigantic heap of shit, and could use a get out of jail free card more than anything. The most damning allegation in the Steele dossier was that Manafort and Carter Page, speaking for the Trump administration, offered favorable treatment of Russia in exchange for dirt on Hillary. If that happened, Manafort can just say so, and skate. Every day that Manafort fights the indictment means it's less likely that Trump/Russia collusion ever happened.

As an aside, the other alleged perpetrator, Carter Page, is facing no charges despite the fact that the FBI crawled up his ass for a whole year. 12 months of total surveillance, and Carter Page isn't in cuffs.

Finally, the Meuller investigation has resulted in 13 other indictments that are merely for show. Those people are all in Russia, and they aren't getting sent here to face trial.

How's that not noise????
