Since then a significant amount of the focus has moved to others not Trump (with noticeable relations to the Clintons and others), and the media has turned on Mueller to a noticeable degree. This tells us something useful. And, from the beginning, some of us who don't live inside the ctrl-left universe have been saying this is a slow burn that will reveal no dirt on Trump and will ultimately fall on others. So far we're under budget ahead of schedule.
You're extrapolating a lot from vague measurements.

the media has turned on Mueller to a noticeable degree.
This is what your above scenario rests on. Not only does it hinge on this, but layered on that is an assumption about this vague metric, the assumption that it means what you need it to mean.
