Things are starting to speed up now it seems. I wonder if Trump will be questioned by Mueller this year?

Then the Podestas are toast. Let the games begin!

And that Craig character. Woo hoo!

 

With all the money forfeited from Mananfort, the trial is going to cost zero dollars to the taxpayer. Silver lining
