    None of that is true. But if all your “news” comes from the little echo chamber of trashy blogs and Fox that most of the Trumpsters here live in, you’re being told that all day long.

    The Mueller Report is far from dead, and will be presented in summary on live TV next week.

    Trump thinks like Archie Bunker, and isn’t as smart. Is he a racist? Almost certainly. Although I doubt that he gives it much thought beyond how he can used it as a wedge issue. He built his political career on pandering to bigotry. He’s doing it right now, loud and clear.

    He views bigotry as a tool he can use. He knows that white resentment is the core of his appeal to his almost all white base. He want’s a political race war. So do many of his supporters. You heard them the other night.

    The GOP is nervous because this is another one of Trump’s fealty tests. Making the GOP embrace and endorse something that his morally reprehensible.

    This too, is a Trump triat. “How low can you go, and how many people can you drag down with you?”. It’s the family motto,

    He is putting the nation to the test.

    Are we going to live up to the implicit challenge laid down in the Declaration of Independence and the preamble to the US Constitution?

    Are we going to give in to fear, weakness, dissipation, and hide behind “big beautiful” walls.

    Yep first it was going to be the Senate investigation, then the House investigation, then the Mueller investigation and then finally the SDNY would finally nail him and we would see the orange suits coming out.
    Another nothingburger it seems and they still won't give it up.

    This is the crux of the matter. He has a history of paying off former mistresses that goes back to before his run for president. With that in mind, it's easy to conclude that this payment is not tied to the election.

    Did they ask about the entire quote

    "Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how...."
    Which is not racist
    Or just
    "Why don’t they go back"

    Why would you need a "summary" of a report that has been released for quite a while now?

    I don't think he is going to be doing any testimony about evidence or statements in the report, he has already said his testimony IS the report and he will have nothing left to say about it. What is it you think he is going to say that is not in the report, what did he hold back and why would he do that?

    So what about this survey did they misrepresent what he said by cherry picking it?

    I believe the if the media could find anything potent anywhere in the report they would have been shouting it from the rooftops. Bob Mueller just wants to run away and hide.

    The excitement value in tossing this case is low. "No Russia, no collusion, no obstruction?" The Mueller Report doesn't agree with your assessment. You'll have a clearer picture of this next week.

    It's going to be yet another anticlimax.

    Do you really think the American people are going to rise up and demand impeachment?

    Yes it does there was no collusion or obstruction of justice presented in his report and now no campaign finance violations from SDNY whom we know are out to get him. You can pretend all you want that doesn't change the outcomes.
