Lindsey Graham: If Trump tries to fire Robert Mueller 'it would be the end of his presidency'
by Naomi Lim | Jan 28, 2018, 10:41 AM

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said Sunday it would be the end of President Trump's time in office if he fired special counsel Robert Mueller, and everyone in his White House knows it.

Graham said he understood Trump's frustration with the ongoing Russia probe, adding most presidents want "to get rid of critics."

"I'm sure that there'll be an investigation around whether or not President Trump did try to fire Mr. Mueller. We know that he didn't fire Mr. Mueller. We know that if he tried to, it would be the end of his presidency," Graham said. "So at the end of the day, let Mr. Mueller do his job."

Yeah.... cause.... as we all know....  just thinking about or considering something....

is just as bad as actually doing it.   *****rollingeyes*****

And no, Congress has nothing better to do than investigating potential "thought crimes" of the President.   Sheesh.   This is getting more and more asinine and surreal as every day goes by.

No quarter given to the enemy within...ever.

The last thing we need is an expansion of whatever the hell this investigation is. The thing shouldn't go on until the investigators die of old age.

Why would the Lindsey Graham king swamp rat be 'in love' with Jeff Sessions? No need to answer. We all know the what the reasons are.

Kinda makes you wonder what corruption Limpy's involved in or how much he's been paid to keep quiet.

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

What's gotten into Lindsey?  Is he so lonely for McCain that he has to make ridiculous statements all by himself?

...or perhaps he's starting to panic as the corruption is beginning to get too close to home.

Lindsey Graham: If Trump tries to fire Robert Mueller 'it would be the end of his presidency'

That is a funny headline, since it is becoming self-evident that Robert Mueller's sole purpose is for the purpose of ending Trump's presidency.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

I wish someone would ask Graham why he was not as keen to not only hold the previous occupant of the White House as accountable for any of his many questionable activities, Graham didn't even display the slightest interest.

Suddenly he's a tiger roaring for justice.

Its hard for me to hate Trump when he's got such loathsome enemies.

It's not Trump I hate, it's his foam-at-the-mouth mob zombies that earn my ire.

    Fortunately, @INVAR, TBR only has a few of them and they too believe that we Conservatives, that have abandoned the GOP and essentially it's CEO are likewise poisoning this site.

Once the memo is released, Trump should give Sessions 10 days to present a plan, satisfying Trump, or he will personally start firing people starting with Sessions, Wray and anyone else named in the memo. What can anyone do to stop him. It’s his constitutional duty.

Not just this board.

They assert we are enemies of the country and poisoning all the good will that will enable Trump to accomplish what he promised.

    So the gist of your post @RetBobbyMI is that Trump should fire Sessions for not 'service sing' him? 

    I never had problems with Sessions until he joined the Trump Campaign and I really think he recused himself from this Russian $hit not because of Trump but he wasn't gonna put his neck on the chopping block for Jr., Kushner and Ivana. 
    He keeps some credibility in my world, though not much.

Constitution schmonstitution.

This country runs on court precedents, congressional rules, EO's and pragmatic political policy that makes us a *better* society and undoes the unfairness and racism inherent in that 'GD piece of paper'.  It don't operate on no outdated piece of parchment written by a bunch of old dead white slave owners.   Get with the program man! 

Oh, and the GOP is there to pay that parchment lip service when it's convenient.

Who assigned Lindsey Graham the job of gatekeeper who decides who can be fired and who cannot ever be fired?
Is that his job? How did he get this power over the President?
