Many on the Right suggest Mueller’s purpose is to build a case to impeach Trump, that Mueller is a partisan foe, and his team of Democrat lawyers are, plainly, a witch-hunt.

Naturally, the Left dismisses that, claiming Mueller’s impartiality is impeccable.

But now that a grand jury has been set up, the speculation swamp is deepening and a great piece by Andy McCarthy outlines the many actions the grand jury can enable.

We suggest another ploy (to date, unmentioned) could be possible.

Remember, the President isn’t neutralized while Mueller goes through his process…

…he can deploy his Dept of Justice against the only ones proven to have broken laws (and colluded with foreign agents) during the 2016 presidential campaign…

…Hillary Clinton and her DNC/campaign staffers.

And, he can go after deep-stater unmasking that has broken federal law, as well as the historical pay-to-play/email machinations going on during Hillary’s sec-state gig.

So, knowing this, Mueller may be in place as an implied threat, a firewall if you will.

“Screw with Democrats, Mr. President, and we’ll throw anything and everything at you.”

Another not-so reasonable alternative: Mueller is actually impartial, and he and his team will go where evidence leads them. (Wishful thinking, but still, an alternative.)

Seriously, it seems pretty ridiculous to assume Mueller will abuse his position with an outright, deliberate frontal attack against a President who has the power to open a can of Democrat whoop-ass when there’s so much evidence proving Democrat chicanery.

All things being equal…we’re betting on the ‘Democrat firewall’ concept.
