Is Mueller's end game to take down Trump?

Daniel Greenfield writes at Front Page Magazine,

...When a crime wouldn’t exist without an investigation, then the investigation created the crime.

And it’s the investigation that is the crime.

The secondary crime here was created by entrapping Flynn as part of an investigation that was supposedly pursuing a primary crime that it, once again, failed to prove.

And Team Mueller has yet to find hide or hair of this crime. After all its grandstanding, it has yet to charge a single person for the crime it was supposed to be investigating. But it has managed to charge two people, George Papadopoulos and Michael Flynn, for lying to investigators. It has not charged them with doing a single illegal thing that predated the Mueller investigation.

...While Flynn didn’t violate the law, he interfered with Obama’s foreign policy agenda. And Obama officials did consider that a crime. While Petraeus’ lie was established by a recording made by his mistress, Flynn was eavesdropped on for the benefit of members of the Obama administration.

...The endgame, as Andrew McCarthy, a former federal prosecutor, has made clear is to take down President Trump, not by establishing a crime, but by destabilizing his administration.

Mueller has produced no collusion, but what he offers is theater. The performance destroys lives. But its real goal is to undermine Trump domestically and internationally. The fake ABC News report that caused tremors in the stock market shows how the campaign can undermine Trump’s economic accomplishments by raising the specter of impeachment. And why should North Korea, Iran, or the Palestinian Authority take Trump seriously when they get the impression that he might be gone soon?

The Mueller investigation is the latest act in the total war waged by Obama against Trump. The same rigged system that gave Hillary a pass is now being utilized to generate crimes by Trump officials.

Peter Strzok, the lead investigator in the Clinton email scandal, was sending pro-Clinton and anti-Trump messages during his extramarital affair with a woman working for FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe. McCabe’s wife had received a sizable amount of money from a Clinton ally. Strzok was on Mueller’s team until he had to be removed because of his shenanigans. Instead of coming clean about his removal, the FBI stonewalled Congress about what really happened. It’s gotten so bad that Rep. Nunes and other House Republicans are preparing to charge the FBI head with Contempt of Congress.

Strzok’s investigation of Trump relied on the Steele dossier that was paid for by Hillary and handfed by at least one current Russian intelligence operative. That was the same dossier that figures in the FBI chose to fund despite its utter lack of credibility and its partisan origins in the Clinton campaign.

We’re now in Act 3 of a leftist conspiracy to invent a conspiracy to justify its own conspiracy.

In Act 1, the Clintons created the Trump-Russia conspiracy theory and used a British former intelligence agent with connections to Russia and the FBI to inject the dossier into the FBI. In Act 2, Obama officials used the dossier to justify their eavesdropping on Trump officials In Act 3, Team Mueller is using that illegal eavesdropping to entrap and generate crimes against assorted Trump officials.

And the conspiracy theory is that the past election was illegitimate, that Trump doesn’t belong in the White House and Hillary does, and that radical measures must be taken against the First Amendment, the Electoral College and our entire political system to prevent such a “mistake” from occurring again.

That’s not just a conspiracy theory. It’s a radical leftist conspiracy against America.

Enough.

Mueller must go. This circus must end. And a real investigation must be conducted of the Obama administration’s eavesdropping on Trump officials and members of Congress. Both the DOJ and the FBI require urgent housecleaning. That is the only meaningful result of the Muller investigation.

Either you drain the swamp. Or the swamp drowns you.
