If Mueller had remained quiet for the past 2 years & just now reported that there were 37 indictments including Trump's personal lawyer, national security adviser & campaign manager, the country would be shocked.
The WH & Congress would be in crisis mode. Releasing information/indictments as he did, Mueller did what was best for the country IMO.
What is it that you love about Trump so much? I don't dislike him so it's not a combative question but this love affair with him, or any politician, is puzzling to me. He spouts a bunch of rhetoric but doesn't follow it up with action. He sold half of the country on this idea that he's this blue collar everyman that cares about the American middle-class when clearly he's a silver spoon rich kid who only cares about serving the super rich.

The truly funny thing is democrats, putting all their eggs in the Russia probe basket, are now left without a platform. When will they learn that the American people want a candidate that takes stands on issues. That has a platform. Hillary's whole platform was, "Trump bad. Grab coochie. Anybody support Trump deplorable." How did that work out?
Where have I ever said the democratic party has my support? I just asked the question. I think it's funny how many people love Trump and hate Obama and when you ask why, the first thing the say is "Economy". Did you see where the economy was before Obama took over and where it was after. I not a huge Obama guy either so I don't wanna seem like this post is to defend him.
Border security? Wall? I'm on record too many times on this site lockstep with Trump on this and I haven't changed my tune.
Manufacturing? Look it up. He hasn't really grown this sector. Jobs are leaving just like they were under Obama. And if Trump gets a second term, he won't benefit from the growth in the tech sector that Obama had. No faulr of his. And in the short term, the tariffs, which I love, are hurting manufacturing growth.

So yeah, i'll ask the Americans with new manufacturing jobs when there are some to ask. Manufacturing is stagnant. Unemployment was already dropping. It just continued to drop. As far as the tax cuts he is for, they are for the rich. Not the poor and not the middle-class, which is in itself a misnomer. I make six figures and I don't even consider myself "middle-class". I'm working class. Just another working stiff. Pro life? He says he is. He acts religious. He's no more religious than Charles Manson. He says what the old people in his party want to here. He's on wife three and is a serial cheater. I guarantee he's paid for an abortion in his day. H3ll, he even lies about being a billionaire. Bet he's a Billionaire now since becoming Pres.
Look, i'm not a Trump hater. I'm just not here to suck him off either. Most of these politicians suck, royally? Trump no more than any others but no less either. With that said, he's got atleast two years left. Probably six. So we'll see.
I more or less agree with all of this, especially the stuff about the democratic party. I can't name one platform or stance for any of the candidates that are currently in the ring. Newbies like AOC say a lot of far-fetched stuff but atleast they are saying something. This will be the second Presidential election in a row where their game plan is to try to make Trump look like a bad person and it will fail again.
I have a couple of questions I hope get answered.
Will we get to see the whole report (minus classified data) or a sanitized version?
Today would be a good day for Trump to release his taxes.

Should be easy enough:

It’s interesting to think back a single year and to remember the collective gloom that covered the economy and remember that while on the campaign trail Trump was almost universally mocked for promising to “Bring back manufacturing jobs to the U.S.” I must admit that even I was skeptical. After all, manufacturing jobs were done and gone, what chance is there of bringing them back? So it is interesting to note that although they didn’t mention Trump specifically, this month’s BLS Commissioner’s report used these exact words, “Since a recent low in November 2016, manufacturing employment has increased by 189,000.” So, precisely since Trump’s election the U.S. has gained 189,000 manufacturing jobs. And 31,000 of them were added in November alone. And November 2016 was actually a “recent low“. From November 2015 to November 2016 the U.S. had actually lost -50,000 manufacturing jobs and at the time it seemed that losing manufacturing jobs was going to be the new reality.
312,000 Jobs Added In December, Manufacturing Growing 714% Faster Under Trump Than Obama
With the December jobs number, President Trump now has two full years of economic performance to compare with his predecessor, President Obama. The two biggest statistical standouts are:
A family of four with annual income of $73,000 is seeing a 60 percent reduction in federal taxes -- totaling to more than $2,058. According to the Heritage Foundation, the typical American family will be almost $45,000 better off over the next decade because of higher take-home pay and a stronger economy.
Tax reform doubled the child tax credit from $1,000 to $2,000, giving over 22 million American families important tax relief. The standard deduction was doubled from $6,000 to $12,000 ($12,000 to $24,000 for a family) giving tax relief for over 105 million taxpayers that took the deduction prior to tax reform and simplifying the code for tens of millions Americans that will not take the standard deduction instead of itemizing.
While the rhetoric of the left has sought to portray the Republican tax cuts as a negative for the middle class, nothing could be further from the truth. The reality is, the middle class has seen strong tax reduction, higher take home pay, more jobs and more economic opportunity.
Even though I am for a wall, I think these are great ideas. And don't even get me started on sanctuary cities. Makes me sick even typing the words. I'm hand in hand with Trump on this issue. I like his approach to foreign policy as well. I like that he gets along with Putin. I like that he gets along with Kim. Makes me feel safer.
Today would be a good day for Trump to release his taxes.
