Was the Russian Collision/Obstruction really over when Barr "exonerated" Trump?"

Leaving aside the fact that no one but Trump ever thought idiots like his supporters would buy exxoneration, it appears that the deep state(s)' actions in terms of persecuting or defending office holders during the Trump years are still being witheld.

The nuts and bolts here, and the refusal to release stuff because of a "deliberative process" privilege when the decision was non-existent because Trump was off limits from the get go is fascinating, but it's probably not worth speculating about until the en banc and/or cert. process is over.

"When a president does something to get himself re-elected and he believes that it is in the best interest of the country then it is not an impeachable act." Alan Dershowitz
Trump believes that the election was rigged and stolen from him. (Guilty by accusation without verifiable proof) He believes that is in the best interest of country that he should be president. Megalomania: "A person obsessed with his own power", with delusions of grandeur, must be in the best interest of the country 🤷‍♂️

It will still be interesting reading about what Barr called an "academic exercise" because he believed Trump was above the law.

I think it was over when it was found that Hillary made all of it up and the Democrats went along with it.

You mean when his pet attorney general found him not guilty under threat of being fired?

@LordShadowfire Sort of, but this is focused on the pet attorney 's backup/defense for doing it getting released to the public.
