Losing support because of listener/reader fatigue than a lack of interest in the investigations. Mueller has a very difficult job conducting an investigation which is in equal parts criminal (possibly?) and totally political due to the GOP brownnoser's. Even the leader of the House Ryan and McConnel of the Senate are complicit in this disinformation campaign. If the GOP leaders had put their constitutional responsibility ahead of party, Mueller would have an easier time. Does not help either that the Justice Department on paper works for the President creating all sorts of conflict of interests (Kelley and Flood attending the DOJ briefing!).

Mueller investigation is now a freight train carrying Trump's baggage of misdeeds and cannot be stopped or undone. The reality is that the truth will eventually come out. And the incessant yelling and screaming will not sotp until then.

The only hustling being done here is by Donny, Nunes and their henchmen in the wingnut media. Donny is one of the great con artists of all time. A shame that fools fall for his many cons.

Trump won the election for three reasons (descending order): 1) the excellent job Republican controlled state legislatures have gerrymandered congressional districts; 2) Hillary Clinton (ask Rajoo ); and 3) the non Republican Trump's base.
I have nothing but good things to say about Hillary Clinton as a grandmother.

If Mueller's investigation is totally political then Trump's claim that it is a witch hunt is accurate.

Maxine Waters said that the use of the term "witch hunt" is a "Russian Tactic".

The Mueller investigation has been made political by GOP sycophants like Freedumbshits, Nunes and other Dotard brown noser's. Also from Dotard's tweets such Democrats colluded with the Russians (to help defeat Hillary? ), or Hillary should be investigated (for losing? ), Obama spied on the Trump campaign etc. Isn't Trump also claiming that 13 of Mueller's investigators are Democrats and thus the investigation is political?

Mueller and his team are conducting a politically motivated criminal investigation. It’s a criminal investigation because that’s the FBI’s job. It’s politically motivated because the establishment is out to get the anti-establishment populist who managed to get himself elected president. Most American politicians represent the establishment, especially on the national level, and as such they are an important part of our nation’s establishment. Both sides of Senate’s aisle are pretty much establishment. In the House there are some somewhat anti-establishment members, a bit more so on the Republican side. Trump represents a threat to the establishment’s status quo which is why they are out to get him.

How did we end up with this anti-establishment populist in our highest office? Donald Trump has hated the elitist NY establishment for a long time; he’s anti-establishment to his core. Clothing himself in populist garb, aided greatly by what he learned in becoming a reality TV star, he stole the Republican nomination, much to the party’s chagrin. The GOP has only itself to blame. Prior to 1968 both parties had their fair share of racists, but with the passage of the Civil Rights Act and the GOP welcoming the rejected Southerners with open arms, the GOP found itself a winning combination. With the advent of political correctness, the politically incorrect who weren’t already voting Republican due to their racism became more ballot fodder for GOP candidates. It was Trump’s ability to sway this key Republican constituency that earned him the candidacy.

So we now have an anti-establishment populist President who threatens the establishment’s status quo. Any wonder they’re out to get him. Trump is correct that Mueller is conducting a witch hunt because from the establishment’s perspective he is a witch. Burn him!
