Just when you thought it couldn’t possibly get any worse… it does.
Well, “worse” if you’re Trump.
Because just 45 minutes after WSJ reported that Special Counsel Robert Mueller has impaneled a grand jury in Washington to investigate Russia’s interference in the 2016 elections, Reuters is out with this:
BREAKING: Grand jury subpoenas have been issued related to June 2016 meeting between Donald Trump Jr., Russian lawyers and others – sources pic.twitter.com/r8AVLhJCxt

That’s right folks, grand jury subpoenas have been issued in connection with the now infamous meeting between Trump Jr. and Russian go-betweens.
Of course this should be fine, right? After all, Jr. is a “high quality” individual and Kushner is a “good boy.”
Don’t forget that Kushner and Trump Jr. have backed themselves into a corner, having both denied that anything nefarious went on at that meeting despite the fact that it was attended by a former KGB operative.
Additionally, Trump hasn’t shown a penchant for being loyal to the folks around him. So one wonders, when push comes to shove, if some folks won’t fold under pressure knowing that he would turn on them in a second if the shoe was on the other foot.
Oh, and you’re reminded of what we said just 30 minutes ago:
Clearly, this suggests Mueller is going to start issuing subpoenas and calling witnesses.

Louder: HOT DAMN and HALLELUJAH ! I bet Jr. peed his pants!

The Teflon-Don(ald) is getting old and the egg is starting to stick.
Daddy might have to spank his bad boy.

There are “gulags” in Rooskie land.
None of those trump people have ever done a day’s hard work in their lives and the only blisters any of them have ever had is Princess Ivanka from her fancy shoes….and somehow she is not on the hit list and she would not look good in stripes anyway! Can you see daddy trump in horizontal stripes swinging a sledge hammer? By this time of day now, Jr has already been thru 3 changes of undies since he got the word of the Grand Jury.
