Trump’s attorney general publicly announced he’s had enough of the president attacking him. Attorney General Jeff Sessions released a defiant statement — while he was on his way to the White House — declaring the agency he runs would not be “improperly influenced by political considerations.”

Such words from an attorney general to the president would be remarkable regardless of the backstory. But they’re even more surprising given Sessions was one of Trump’s first high-profile congressional endorsements and remained one of his closest political allies during the campaign.

In one week, it was reported that three top Trump allies started cooperating with federal prosecutors and, for the first time, impeachment became a talking point on both sides of the aisle. Plus, a Manafort juror and Trump supporter warns Trump not to pardon Manafort.

Trump’s poll numbers take a dive. How worried should the GOP be?...August 31

The Post-ABC News poll taken Aug. 26 to 29 might send some tremors through the GOP. President Trump’s approval rating is down to 36 percent, matching his all-time low, and his 60 percent disapproval rating is at an all-time high. (Among registered voters, his approval rating is a smidgen higher at 38 percent.) Worse still, his approval rating among Republicans is now below 80 percent, and his support among white voters is down to 45 percent, with 51 percent who disapprove. His gender gap is enormous: 54 percent of men disapprove of his performance, while 66 percent of women do. Among independents, 59 percent disapprove of his performance.

Tick-tock is too fast for Mueller, an old man who should have retired at 70.

Tick-tock is too fast for the American government, designed in the 18th Century.

American government is as slow and erratically directionless as an 18th Century hot air balloon blown around by the winds. I don’t think it can speed up handling Trump. I don’t even think America can make a decision in calendar time, let alone in tick-tocks of a clock. My desk calendar runs out of pages in December of next year. Trump will probably be President then because America can’t move fast. Other countries can. For examples:

Australia has had 6 prime ministers in the last 8 years. America needs faster turnover at the top.
https://globalnews.ca/news/4406960/australia-prime-ministers/

South Korea’s president is probably spending the rest of her life behind bars. A second Korean President awaits trial for corruption. America needs stronger and faster punishment for its incompetent President.
https://qz.com/1246383/

Former President Lee Myung-bak has complained of his difficult life in prison and the strain of attending trial for corruption in office. I'd love to hear Trump complain about prison food while he is on trial, but the American system is not setup for no-bail of ex-Presidents. Instead, American Presidents get pardoned. See Richard Nixon or ex-V.P. Spiro Agnew or Bill Clinton only being disbarred when he deserved 6 months of Community Service picking up trash along Federal Highways because he lied under oath.

While we agree on many things SECOND we disagree frequently as well. Mueller is working at a breakneck speed when compared to past investigations. The amount of indictments backs that.

I don't like living in the negative. What I mean is that I don't only see the bad in everything and not the good. I see you challenging the way our government is set up. I agree there are problems like to much money in politics but making drastic changes to the constitution is out of the question.

I live in world where violence can happen RIGHT NOW! The result: people don't lie like Trump does, since punishment comes immediately, not delayed by years and years. And the punishment is not watered down by polite negotiations between lawyers. When all these protective and civilized layers are added in the system Trump is operating within, there are unlimited opportunities for fraud and dishonesty and general incompetence. Trump has all his teeth and no scars. If he was in the oil business, he'd have every tooth knocked out of his mouth.

This country gets it's greatness from the rule of law. Frustration should never dictate an outcome over that.

I've seen the republicans claim the high ground on every topic under the Sun. If they lose the house in November they are going to get shredded by all the investigations that expose the coverups concerning this administration.

Ex-Trump attorney tried to use White House and personal funds to pay legal bills for Manafort, Gates

John Dowd, President Trump’s former top lawyer in the Russia investigation, admitted Friday that he inquired about using cash earmarked for the White House legal defense fund to cover legal bills racked up by ex-Trump campaign officials Paul Manafort and Rick Gates.

Dowd said he even pledged $25,000 of his own money for the February venture. However, the plans fell through after administration officials advised against it.
