    I know what you're thinking........it's an oxymoron. But hey, let's give this group credit, they are trying to restore some dignity to a party that now has Don's shyte smeared all over it. Let's also acknowledge they aren't the only ones. As individuals like George Will who have renounced their membership in the party, to Kellyanne's hubby George Conway who organized a group of lawyers called "Checks and Balances" some principled Repubs are pushing back against Trumpery.

    I recommend clicking on one of the videos shown at the cite. When you do a montage of other videos become available to watch. I was left with a feeling of encouragement that beneath the din of constant noise coming from the Carnival Barker-in-Chief, liars like Sister Sarah, sycophants like Steve Mnuchin, and propagandists like Faux, Rush, and Levin, there are still some members of what was the GOP who have not lost their minds. Who see Don for the ass clown he is........and understand the serious threat to the country he poses. If the GOP is to be saved from the corrosive effects of Crooked Donald there are the folks who will save it.

    Republican group to hand-deliver Mueller report to every GOP lawmaker

    https://thehill.com/homenews/house/...-deliver-mueller-report-to-every-gop-lawmaker

    A Republican group is hand-delivering special counsel Robert Mueller's report to every lawmaker in its party on the heels of his first public remarks on the two-year Russia investigation.

    Republicans for the Rule of Law announced Thursday it will deliver a copy of the report with highlighted sections to Republicans in Congress.
    ......................................................................................................................................................
    I implore members of the Trump cult to listen to these former members of your tribe. The members who you left in order to follow a demagogue who by your own admission is a despicable human being. They are not the heretics you make them out to be.

    Donald Trump has been displaying disregard for the law through his entire adult life. That is how he was raised.

    David Cay Johnston's book "The Making of Donald Trump" documents it very well.

    Can you explain trumpery vs republicans? He ran as a republican and has republican policies so what is the difference besides you not liking him?

    Traditionally, Repubs have had principled positions on small government, unfettered markets, and low taxes.

    Trumpery is about any position the Bigot-in-Chief feels is expedient in order to garner votes. Followers of Trumpery likewise act in accordance with Don's whims, vigorously defending anything he does or says even if it's the opposite of what he said yesterday.

    Trumpery is about self-preservation taking precedence over the rule of law, ethics, long standing norms. It doesn't recognize the existence of any guiding principle other than defeating and degrading the opposition.......any opposition.

    Go ahead and pass out the Mueller report which has exonerated President Trump.
    Some people have no respect for the Office of the Presidency. Constantly smearing him only further damages your own credibility. The coup d'état against the President has failed miserably and impeachment will either never happen or will also fail. I should add this to the conspiracy theory forum.

    There was no exoneration on obstruction. There was no coup attempt. Anyone who believes otherwise is delusional.

    Actually, it's unAmerican to refer to the constitutional process of removing a criminal from the Oval House as a coup.

    Right wingers calling it a "coup attempt" shows how they want to suppress freedom of speech. When their fellow party members did it to Clinton nobody called it such. Instead, they allowed the process to work itself out. In the end, the Republicans lost thanks to votes made by Republican senators.

    Something tells me you didn't read the report. It didn't "exonerate" Trump of anything. If anything Mueller hinted at obstruction of justice. He even said so in person to the press.

    Conspiracy was the birther movement but many righties didn't seem to mind. There is no deep state in existence. Perhaps the next time a righty bring it up, I should recommend the thread to be relegated to the conspiracy theory forum?

    Mueller pointed out the obstruction of justice in his report.

    But since you are on about a conspiracy theory of a coup attempt please show some evidence and let us all know who is in charge of this coup attempt with some concrete evident.

    It's unAmerican to call our President a criminal after he's been totally exonerated.

    right wingers on this forum have repeated the oft debunked myth that Clinton was responsible for the death of Vince Foster - I guess you are persuaded that your fellow right wingers are unAmerican ;)

    I think it's safe to say patriotnews posts nonsense to get a reaction..............cuz not even Faux viewers are completely in denial of facts to the extent he is.

    Newsflash: AG Barr and Deputy AG Rosenstein say differently and they have the final say. What Mueller doesn't say is that the report doesn't say he did obstruct justice.

    Probably just as safe to say some posters create threads just to attract attention to themselves by the constant grilling of nothingburgers don't you think?

    They lied. And they don't have the final say, Congress does.

    Granted the Meuller saga is pretty much the leftist full time gig and I don't think it leaves any of them much time for square dance lesson!

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Special counsel Robert Mueller said Wednesday that charging President Donald Trump with a crime was “not an option” because of federal rules, but he used his first public remarks on the Russia investigation to emphasize that he did not exonerate the president.

    Wrong. The Special Counsel reports to the DOJ, not Congress. If Mueller thinks President Trump obstructed justice, why not come out and say so? No, he's a coward. That's why he said he can't say he didn't obstruct justice but what he refuses to say is that he can't say HE DID! That's just more left wing weasel speak to placate the Democrats and pretend he actually had something to investigate. This is why he's too much of a coward to go before Congress in public and answer questions. Question #1, when did you know there was no collusion? Answer, DAY ONE. Then why did it take 22 months? Because they wanted to try an manufacture an obstruction of justice charge.
