Trump Blasts Obama But Never About:: Indictments, Pleas, Convictions, Sentences

See S/C Mueller's Scoreboard Below
(Those close to or connected to Trump)


Obama took a swipe at Trump over those who have been caught up in special counsel Robert Mueller's probe, saying:They (the Trump camp) promised to take on corruption. Remember that? Instead, they went to Washington and just plundered away. In Washington, they have racked up enough indictments to field a football team. Nobody in my administration got indicted.”

Historical note: Since 1969, Republican presidential administrations have had 121 criminal indictments and 89 convictions. Democrats for the same period have had 3 indictments and only 1 conviction.  


1.    Michael Cohen: Sentenced to 3 years in prison.
2.    Roger Stone: Charged in Federal Court, trial pending.     
3.    Richard Pinedo: Sentenced to 6 months in jail.
4.    George Papadopoulos: Sentenced to 14 days in jail.
5.    Paul Manafort: Charged/convicted, sentenced to 90 months    
       in prison, NYS 16-count charges pending.     
6.    Konstantin Kilimnik: Obstruction of justice, status pending.
7.    Alex van der Zwaan: Sentenced to 30 days in jail.     
8.    Rick Gates: Financial fraud, lying to FBI, trial pending.
9.    Michael Flynn: Charged/pleaded guilty, trial pending.

My 2 cents: So, Trump loyalists faced with hard historical evidence (see above), how do they feel about this? Jubilant, overwhelmed with “Fake News” (Trump’s motto), at a loss for words (not likely), or trusting and unconcerned. 

S/C Mueller is not done yet and states are lined up with more indictments and charges. So, stay tuned.

Thanks for stopping by.
