We may be distracted, but I doubt Mueller is. Besides, what would we know about the investigation(s) anyway? I’m waiting for Sept/Oct when everyone is back to work and we might learn something.

Right. Just because the investigation isn’t getting top-of-the-hour coverage, Mueller and his team are getting closer to handing down indictments. That’s happening whether we’re ‘distracted’ or not. They’ve got their eye on that ball.

And the recent slant in news coverage - where the media is finally talking about Russian interference not as a possibility, but pretty much a near-certainty - is going to make a difference, too.

By the time we get to Halloween, things will look a lot different. Trump’s presidency is a joke now, but by then it will be seen more and more as a corrupt organization. More congress members will be emboldened to speak out as the mid-terms approach. The news cycle will feed on itself and the narrative will build.

I keep saying this - six months ago someone talking about the certainty of Trump-Russia collusion were shouted down. Now they’re getting interview hits everywhere but Fox.

Landscape. Changing.
