First, is there a case against Donald Trump? For sure, the evidence is mounting for the Special Prosecutor to open a specific investigation into Donald Trump and not just the Russian incursion into the American Political System.
Before launching into the case against Trump, consider Trump's latest protest tirade made while he was on the way to Asia for a severe diplomatic tour.
Trump criticized the Department of Justice for failing to investigate Hillary Clinton. His allegations are based on a book by Donna Brazille that said that Clinton had a contract with the Democratic Party that compromised the independence and integrity of the party organization in assuring equal treatment for all candidates.
The Clinton and Democratic Party relationship should be investigated by the Federal Election Commission as the FEC may also have cause to investigate the Trump and Republican Party relationship. Trumps calling for the DOJ to investigate his political opponent is akin to an authoritarian act and is undemocratic and undermines the rule of law.
By factual evidence as the public knows it, Carter Page, George Popadopolous, Paul Manafort, and Rick Gates, all Trump campaign associates, engaged the Russians with the intent to obtain their support in undermining Hillary Clinton's campaign. Attorney General Jeff Sessions swore under oath that he did not know of that. However, there are at least three contradictions to his statement that make him vulnerable to charges of perjury and lying to Congressional investigators as well as the Special Prosecutor.
The public also knows that Donald Trump Jr and Jerrod Kushner were directly involved and met with Russian spy representatives.
The smoke around The White House doesn't get any thicker than that before a fire ignites.
