When all the facts have been thoroughly investigated and corroborated, and not a minute sooner.

This is a grand jury indictment for prosecution rather than impeachment due to the Senate. I say by the end of year, setting stage up for prosecution upon his leavimg office in 2021.

That is how I see it. When a prosecution of the President becomes moot, this investigation will itself be in the winding-up phase with the activity in Federal courts. I see President Trump losing to a Democratic nominee who gets 295 to 375 electoral votes. with him gaining nothing from 2016 and losing Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin with near-certainty; and Iowa and Arizona with a high level of certainty. I see the President having about as much chance to lose Texas as to win Arizona, and the states on the bubble are Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and Ohio along with the recently-wayward Congressional Districts of Maine and Nebraska. That is the margin of the electoral vote that I see in 2020, and I cannot distinguish those four stat4es and two districts as well as I can distinguish them from Arizona and Texas.

There are other possibilities -- flight, disability, death, resignation, and the now non-zero chance of a military coup.

Of course there are others who will be at legal risk. So far members of the House and Senate have yet to be exposed.

Lawrence Walsh: appointed Independent Counsel for Iran-Contra 1986. Wraps up investigation in 1993, seven years later. (After Reagan and Bush were out of office)

Kenneth Starr: Took over the already-ongoing Whitewater investigation in 1994. Wraps up the investigation in 1998, four years later. (After a presidential election intervened and Clinton was reelected)

Robert Mueller: Appointed Special Counsel in 2017. Wraps up investigation Huh

Isn't the Grand Jury required to end like July this year or something?

If Mueller wants to, he can get another six month extension.

You may see the probe wrap up in 2019 on Collusion and Obstruction, but Mueller might then transfer his findings about Tax Fraud, Money Laundering and Campaign Finance irregularities over to SDNY and other investigators. Can Mueller indict over financial stuff, or would he have to hand it over to another team like he did with the Cohen stuff?

I don't think people here understand just how complex investigations of mafia and mafia-type organisations like the Trump administration are. I expect it to wrap up at some point in 2022
