This CNN article published today echos my concerns regarding reactionary forces colliding with changing demographics and cultural trends in the decades ahead:
https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/11/politics/brett-kavanaugh-changing-america-supreme-court/index.html
"(CNN)Last week's combative Senate Judiciary Committee hearings over Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh looked at times like a flash-forward to the racially infused politics that may increasingly consume the court, and the nation, through the 2020s.
If the Senate confirms Kavanaugh, which still appears likely despite sharpening Democratic questions about his honesty, he will cement a five-member majority of Republican-appointed justices. Given their ages, those five justices could control the Supreme Court for the next 15 years or more. Over that period, demographers project, the nation inexorably will grow more diverse in virtually every measurable way, from religious preference to sexual orientation and racial and ethnic composition.
That looks like a surefire formula for heightening conflict. Each of the Republican-appointed justices has demonstrated resistance to measures designed to protect or promote the interests of groups that often have been marginalized in American history, from racial minorities to gays and lesbians. And like a tightening tourniquet, the tension is likely to grow between the opposition of the Republican-appointed justices to laws that they feel unduly disadvantage whites and religiously devout Christians, and the calls from those growing minority groups for greater opportunity and inclusion."
As for the part about that staffer not being the “resistance” he is absolutely correct. They are in it for themselves. Not America.

Mueller is a badass.
Trump supporters have been trying to discredit him and write him off. At some point they are going to realize who this guy is. He has absolutely dedicated his life to the service of the United States.

Mmmmmmmm
The amount of time has nothing to do with anything.
There is debate as to whether or not a President can be indicted, so there may be no charges against Trump even if he has committed crimes.
Trump has almost certainly obstructed justice. In the legal sense. It's almost a no-brainer. The question is whether or not as a society we consider this thing that has been a crime to still be a crime when it comes to one man who goes by the name Trump. And if we think it's worth holding him accountable for it.
If it’s a “no brained” why not charge him? Make it an issue. Put those with the absurd notion that a president cannot be indicted on the spot. Elements of the media are begging for a smoking gun.
I have doubts. Doubts of proof.
