Trump Innocent/Hillary Guilty

Tue Durham report is out. Far from being a "nothing burger" like MSMBC said. There was not enough evidence to justify an investigation. They also treated HRC with kid gloves and much differently than Trump.

I have known liberals were crooked, and the proof is in.

What, now do you have to say about the horrible names you called him?

Trump is innocent of collusion with Russia contrary to the belief of the left!

@specman That's not what the Mueller Report concluded. Here are some of the findings:

[quote]The investigation produced 37 indictments; seven guilty pleas or convictions; and compelling evidence that the president obstructed justice on multiple occasions. Mueller also uncovered and referred 14 criminal matters to other components of the Department of Justice.

Trump associates repeatedly lied to investigators about their contacts with Russians, and President Trump refused to answer questions about his efforts to impede federal proceedings and influence the testimony of witnesses.

A statement signed by over 1,000 former federal prosecutors concluded that if any other American engaged in the same efforts to impede federal proceedings the way Trump did, they would likely be indicted for multiple charges of obstruction of justice.

The investigation “identified numerous links between the Russian government and the Trump Campaign” and established that the Trump Campaign “showed interest in WikiLeaks's releases of documents and welcomed their potential to damage candidate Clinton”

Special Counsel Mueller declined to exonerate President Trump and instead detailed multiple episodes in which he engaged in obstructive conduct

The Mueller Report states that if the Special Counsel’s Office felt they could clear the president of wrongdoing, they would have said so. Instead, the Report explicitly states that it “does not exonerate” the President and explains that the Office of Special Counsel “accepted” the Department of Justice policy that a sitting President cannot be indicted.[/quote]

You should actually read the Mueller Report some day. Or at least read the summary.

@specman That was neither Durham's finding nor the focus of the investigation. He was looking into whether the FBI should have looked into connections between Russia and Trump, not whether anything was found (which it was). Durham's own investigation shows only a difference of opinion, since he recommended no indictments nor any changes in FBI policy or approach.

Of course Barr would support any finding that makes people conclude Trump is innocent. He spent his failed AG stint functioning as a protector of Trump, not as AG for the US people.
