People can vote-out Trump if they buy into the Democrats wild fables.
How is it a wild fable that 600 prosecutors would have indicted Trump for obstruction? Sounds like reality to me. Unfortunately, Mueller didn't go far enough. Guess he left that up to Congress.

Apparently over 650 of them would, with more signing on all the time.

That will support him regardless of the fact that he clearly has no morals or values and does not believe in America as we once knew it?

We live in a nation of mesmerized nitwits.
The upsetting thing is that a good portion of American citizens feel no allegiance to their own country. They will support a con artist, but not the Constitution.

Seems like an important question to ask when the primary focus of your job is to evaluate the evidence and make a recommendation to the AG to prosecute or not. Mueller has to prove guilt. Trump doesn't have to prove innocence. Unless the presumption of innocence until proven guilty is only for leftists.

I like how Scott Adams put it: The democrats went elephant hunting and shot 12 squirrels. LOL.
More like the Republicans went elephant hunting but didn't have a license to shoot anything. Comey, Mueller and Rosenstein were all Republicans. They figured out where the elephants were, and handed the elephant guns to the Democrats. Now the Democrats are going hunting, and they have a license.

Why AREN'T you concerned about all they lying that went on behind that farce?


Oh yes. Its that Double Standard at play.
No I never said that at all. You made that up.

I have said from day one I don't believe Trump knowingly conspired with the Russians. He's not that clever.

His big concern was finding out the Russians were conspiring to get him into office, because that would imply HE didn't win by himself. And that was why he kept trying to interfere with the investigation. His ego is his biggest downfall.

The 17 agencies never said that he conspired with the Russians. They said that the Russians interfered.

So I am not concerned with that information being false....and even Senator Graham says the agencies were right.....so come on now.

There is no double standard -- you are making that up.

Sounds like they don't have any confidence in Mueller or his prosecutorial ability.

Where was their objections to Mueller when he was appointed ?
There most definitely seems to be disappointment by some that Mueller didn't pursue an indictment against the President.

But didn't Mueller make it clear in the report that he wouldn't and isn't that the understanding -- no criminal indictments of sitting Presidents.

But yeah there are some questioning why Mueller wasn't more firm.

Did they prepare a formal letter or statement?

I think Mueller was wiling to churn away investigating 7 days a week building up evidence against Trump and others—passing off other crimes he discovered along the way to various DoJ offices like SDNY and others

But Barr and Trump were too afraid and they called him off the pitch so to speak
His office was supposedly in the middle of investigating someone involved with the campaign’s computer, looking into emails and other documents

As far as I know Mueller still has not produced the document he was tasked to provide by Rosenstein that lists any and all times Mueller was not allowed to pursue a line of investigation, wasn’t given money or staff to do down a certain avenue of inquiry
Until that is produced in full w/o redactions then as far as I am concerned Barr pulled Mueller’s investigation to a close—
It didn’t just end because he was running out of leads or evidence to follow...
