Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal Warns Trump That Russia Convictions Are Imminent

Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal warned Donald Trump on Monday not only that more indictments are likely in Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation, but that he also expects convictions early in the new year.

According to Blumenthal, Mueller likely has more damning information not yet known to the public, which will lead to more criminal indictments and probable convictions of those in Trump’s inner circle.

The Democratic senator said:

At some point in the new year I think there will be more indictments, and very likely also convictions. Because Robert Mueller is doing his work methodically and meticulously and he will use every tool at his disposal. He is already in possession of knowledge that we don’t have from a public source. I have no inside information. But I would expect the evidence that he has gathered so far and as well from cooperation from Michael Flynn and George Papadopoulos who have been convicted to provide a basis for convictions and indictments going forward.

While Trump continues to blow hot air on Twitter and at news conferences about how the entire Russia investigation is a hoax, Mueller continues to work behind the scenes, thoroughly compiling evidence that makes it increasingly clear that the Russia scandal is anything but a hoax.

The fact that Michael Flynn and George Papadopoulos – who both played key, high-level roles on Trump’s team – are cooperating with the investigation makes it even more likely that Mueller has damning information on the president.

Not only is Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation far from over, but as Sen. Blumenthal said on Monday, more indictments and likely even convictions are imminent in the new year. That should have this president shaking in his boots.
