Insane in how none of the things reported will matter one whit to any of them?

Or insane in how fired up and insane they will be acting now that dear leader is feeling the pressure?

Or both? :D

A little of column A, a little of column B.

Plus, Trump is going to gin them up, and then pour gasoline all over it by talking about how Mollie Tibbets was killed by an illegal immigrant.

Also, this judge was kind of the worst case scenario. Indictees facing future prosecution by Mueller are not likely to be so lucky.

That's about as likely as Trump juggling snowballs in hell

HOWEVER

Trump is dumb, so I'm speaking from the POV of someone who knows how bad it would be for Trump to pardon Manafort. But since Trump still can't understand simple concepts like lawyer-client privilege I wouldn't say it is impossible for him to try pardoning people.

I hope he does. It will open up the gates of hell for Trump

Do you mean the people who bully other posters and hurl insults while complaining about how poorly they are treated? Those people?

This whole situation is evidence of that. None of this would be happening if Trump didn't fire Comey and just waited 3 weeks for Comey to say that there isn't enough evidence at the moment to pursue a collusion case.
