Rosenstein Resigning
- Thread starter JamieDimonsBalls
- Start date
Unfortunately, we can't guess Rosenstein's motives or predict his actions without knowing the provisions of government pension policy, i.e., how badly does Rosenstein get screwed if he resigns vs. gets fired, and does the degree of how-much-he-gets-screwed depend on a particular date of his termination (under either method).
I predict that, on Thursday, Trump will "reluctantly" accept Rosenstein's resignation while, simultaneously, Rosenstein will "regretfully" announce that he is leaving government service "to pursue other opportunities." I also predict that, in a late-night Tweet after the official announcement, Trump will robotically announce that he sends his "thoughts and prayers" to the entire Rosenstein family on the occasion of the loss of their breadwinner's job (without realizing that Trump himself is the reason Rosenstein lost his job).
We know Trump wanted this leaked because he's not bitching about the leak.
He actually said he might postpone their meeting so as to not effect the Kav confirmation process. Or some shit like that.
When the crash comes, a manic goes down fast. Trump has long had manic symptoms. Trump will resign from the presidency by January 1, 2020. That's my bold prediction.
Not super worried about this considering Dems have subpoena power now and ultimately control the purse-strings with them controlling the House. Mueller's got some dead man's switches set up.
We're past the dangerous time.

Yup. I knda doubt RR would step aside if he thought his absence would imperil the investigation.
There are likely sealed indictments and some referrals to states in place. Remember that per rules, if the Special Council seeks an action (from indictment to interviews), and DOJ leadership instructs them not to proceed, then it must be immediately reported to House committee.
I think if Trump wanted to stop this investigation, he missed his chance. That train left the station a while back.
The tentacles of the probe are everywhere now. Including other federal districts and state courts.
And, Barr May have trouble being confirmed after his craptastic memo re: presidential authority/immunity. That was pathetic. It was him basically screaming “hire me!” to Trump.
I do think it’s kind of weird that since Whitaker took over, nothing has been done to throttle the investigation. Either he’s not much involved, or it’s pretty bad and he knows he can’t step on it now.
This is new info to me. Perhaps it was meaningless as long as Nunez was in charge, but if this is the case, Schiff would have a field day.
