My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1
If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26
This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

That's how those wanting to hit Trump for emoluments want it to work, anyway.
How is it that allegiance to Trump puts the mind in a mode where the potential effect of greed and temptation are the same for $1 and $1,000,000?

Now the question is, why is Mueller so reluctant to publicly testify?

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostYou mean two-years, a virtually unlimited budget and scope, a dozen lawyers, and 40 "rank and file" FBI agents wasn't enough for Mueller "to get to the bottom of things"? And he didn't start with nothing, either. He was picking up from the quite extensive spy operation that was started at least a year before by the Obama administration, and he STILL couldn't close the deal. Are your trying to make the case that Dirty Cop Mueller was a disastrously incompetent special counsel?

Wake up MM, ya'll look like a complete morons.
Jimmy, honey, when you're calling somebody a 'morons', it would be wise to be EXTRA careful with your spelling and grammar.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Originally posted by JimL View PostMueller got to the bottom of things and Trump had his personal lawyer, Atty Gen. Barr, lie about the findings therein in an attempt to cover-up what was actually found.
Originally posted by JimL View PostThere is already plenty of evidence of his corruption, his abuse of power, his obstruction, not to mention his collusion with a foriegn adversary.
When someone finds themselves forced to lie[1] in order to bolster their position isn't that a sign that they really need to step back and re-examine that position?
1. Barr misrepresented Mueller and Trump colluded with the Russians

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostRight, Mueller missed something "big" despite the vast resources at his disposal.
Next you're going pull out the Nutsy Pelosi line that Trump is guilty of a "cover-up" without specifying what it is he's covered up!
Mueller has not looked at Trump’s finances. Trump is motivated by money, revenge and hatred [he has zero interest in public service]. So, there is much more to discover, and we know that by Trump’s own words and behavior.“I think God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.” ― Oscar Wilde
“And if there were a God, I think it very unlikely that He would have such an uneasy vanity as to be offended by those who doubt His existence” ― Bertrand Russell
