Congress hires Russian mob prosecutor to investigate Trump ho ho!

The Democratic-controlled House of Representatives has just made an appointment which has got to have involved a deep belly laugh. Adam Schiff, House intelligence committee chairman, has hired a lawyer who has in the past prosecuted cases against Russian mobsters. It can't be a coincidence. So the Russian mobster legal expert, Daniel Goldman, has joined the committee to act as chief adviser on how it should investigate the Russian collusion allegations made against Donald Trump. There is a certain if not definite irony in this appointment. But with his background, Goldman, as director of investigations as well as senior adviser, will be a pretty potent adversary for the president. No one is yet talking about impeachment, but the Goldman appointment is a serious step towards a potential sticky end for Trump. Remember one of his main lawyers is Rudy Giuliani who has a habit of making extraordinary and not-helpful-to-his-master remarks and statements. This fellow Goldman will probably eat Giuliani for breakfast. He is going to be looking into all kinds of allegations being made aganst Trump, not just Russian collusion but also alleged dodgy business dealings. As if the Robert Mueller investigation into Russian collusion is not enough to infuriate the president. Now he has a fancy lawyer delving into the darkness. Both Mueller and Goldman spell big trouble for Trump. BIG trouble. Not to forget of course the pursuit of Trump by Democrat Jerry Nadler, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, who has sent off demands for cooperation from 81 people associated with the president and are expected to be fored to appear before him and his committee which will be investigating allegations of obstruction of ustice, corruption and abuse of power. Oh my God, you almost feel sorry for Trump. It's beginning to becme overwhelming.
