Who knows where this investigation will lead. Remember that Ken Starr's original remit as the Special Counsel/Prosecutor investigating Bill Clinton in the 1990s was to investigate the Whitewater land deal, but ended up with an obstruction of justice charge related to his affair with Monica Lewinsky. Mueller will be able to look into all of Trump's financial records, and who knows what links that will divulge. This investigation is going to continue for a few years, and is going to be a very nasty ordeal. Also, we don't know what will happen in the 2018 mid-term elections.
They appointed the right person. Mueller will act independently and responsibly and get to the bottom of this
