Donald Trump and the Mueller Report

Two years. Unlimited budget. A severely partisan team of lawyers and investigators. And the result. No Russian collusion. Not enough information to prove obstruction of justice. A bunch of old infractions committed by guys who had a connection of some kind to the President. Some process crimes, that is to say things like lying to the FBI, crimes committed by people entrapped during the investigation, that sort of stuff.

And the reaction of the Liberals? Impeach the President!

Critics have combed through the massive report looking for anything and everything that can be spun to make Trump look bad. Like I asked last week, why are these people so disappointed that our President is not a crook, or a Russian spy, or a traitor?  So, now we have to listen to their fake shock and amazement at every line of a four hundred page report that somehow reveals some secret only they can discern. Pathetic!

One of the statements that has drawn the attention of the Left is a comment by the President that the appointment of a special counsel would destroy his presidency.  To the Liberals this clearly shows that the President knew he was guilty and the investigation would finish him. OR, maybe the President could already see what the Democrats would spend the next two years doing, or should I say not doing.

With complete Democratic opposition and resistance, and with less than the full support of even his own party, the President has struggled to keep the campaign promises that got him elected in the first place. With a Republican controlled Congress, getting a wall built or getting Obamacare repealed should have been easy. Instead the constant reminder that “Trump is under investigation, blah, blah, blah” is all we heard. RINOS used the excuse to divide the controlling party ensuring that nothing would get done. Even appointing Supreme Court justices (and filling Cabinet positions) became outrageously difficult.

In that sense, the Left has succeeded in ending his presidency before it even began. And unfortunately, they aren’t about to stop now. Their current obsession is to somehow prove obstruction of justice. My question, voiced by many, is whether or not you can obstruct justice when there is no actual crime to investigate. Rather than spend time with that argument, allow me to direct you to a great article that thoroughly covers the subject.  https://reason.com/2019/04/19/in-defense-of-trump-obstructing-justice-when-theres-no-underlying-crime/ Bottom line? No obstruction of justice by the President.

The worst part of all this mess is that the Liberal Left Democratic Party has succeeded in smearing the reputation of the man and the office. I think of Richard Nixon and the effect of the Watergate investigation on his legacy. In many ways an effective president, the release of the report and the tapes from the oval office completely changed the public’s perception of him. People were particularly shocked to hear him using such profane language in the oval office. (I remain much more shocked at what Bill Clinton did in the oval office.) Of course, the Left and the media have already spent two years doing everything they can to ruin Trump’s reputation and image.

So, what happens now? Apparently not much. Someone recently asked what the Democrat controlled House has done in their first 100 days. The answer? Pretty much nothing. We’re still waiting. And while we wait, maybe we should look into the Uranium One deal. You know, the one that shows Hillary colluding with the Russians. Or maybe we should investigate a sitting president (Obama) spying on an opposition candidate’s campaign.You know, real crimes and impeachable offenses.
