  1.  @sirmikalus9923  Contradicting? I'm telling you exactly what's in the report. Are you sure we're talking about the same one?

  2.  Steve French  I already read the report. What's taking you?

  3. Too_Short_Corte Tm A foreign government interfered to help Trump win and you’re more focused on something that there’s no evidence for?

  4.  Steve French  If people can be arrested for attempted murder, attempted obstruction of justice doesn't count as "nothing," especially when the only reason you say it does is because his aides and cabinet members didn't do what he said.

  5.  @too_short_cortetm8507  Trump telling Sessions to stop the investigation doesn't count as evidence?

  6.  @sirmikalus9923  If Mueller can't exonerate Trump on obstruction of justice, is it because Trump is unethical or a criminal?

  7.  Steve French  Project much? Donald Trump Jr. literally tweeted a chain of emails about Russians helping Trump get dirt on Hillary. How is that not evidence?

  8. Zay Ray ...what are you saying isn’t a crime, again? Last I checked, obstructing a federal investigation is a crime. And before you say anything, the Mueller report explicitly says it doesn’t have evidence to exonerate Trump of obstruction.

  15. Terri D. Then why hasn’t Mueller exonerated Trump of obstruction?

  16. aroenche Mueller never said there was no evidence. He said that given the evidence he had, he wasn’t able to “establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities,” but he is not saying that there is no evidence of “collusion” at all, in any sense. There is simply insufficient evidence to prove that the Trump administration was directly involved in Russian crimes like stealing Clinton’s emails.

  17. Marco Polo1 The report provides evidence to suggest that the Trump campaign actively worked with the Russian government to improve its electoral chances. First, Russia repeatedly reached out to the Trump campaign to establish a connection to the Kremlin. The Russian contacts consisted of business connections, offers of assistance to the campaign, invitations for candidate Trump and Putin to meet in person, invitations for campaign officials and representatives of the Russian government to meet, and policy positions seeking improved U.S.-Russian relations. More importantly, the Trump campaign was receptive, as evidenced by Manafort’s meetings with Konstantin Kilimnik, a Russian political consultant with a history of connections to the GRU intelligence agency. The FBI believed he had links to the Kremlin, a view shared by Manafort and Gates. Yet despite Gates’s suspicions, Manafort repeatedly met with Kilimnik, worked with him to develop a pro-Russian Ukraine policy that Trump could implement if elected, and regularly shared polling data with him. Does that mean Trump himself is responsible? No. But again, the Russians still interfered in the election to help him win.

  18. aroenche Sharing internal polling data with a foreign government isn’t a crime?

  23. aroenche Once again, that’s a conspiracy theory that requires way more wishful thinking than you think liberals used on the Mueller investigation.

  24. Steve French Reagan also said “Listening to the liberals, you'd think that the 1980's were the worst period since the Great Depression.” He must’ve forgotten about that time he added $1.4 trillion in deficits.

  25. Steve French That chain e-mail you’re quoting was wrong to suggest the additional debt during Obama’s tenure already has exceeded the level of his predecessors. In terms of both debt held by the public and total debt, the Obama administration added less debt than the amounts in place when he took office.

  31.  @aroenche428  Actually, the FISA investigation was started in response to the actions of George Papadopoulos, who had told an Australian diplomat at a London bar in May 2016 that Moscow had "political dirt" on Hillary Clinton. Now, if you can't get the thing that started the investigation correct, why should I believe what you say about the rest of it?
    1
  32.  @zayray4283  So you're just going to celebrate Mueller not finding the thing his appointment letter didn't task him with finding anyway? You're basically celebrating the fact that the trash collector didn't find a dead body buried in the backyard. In spite of that, there were still Russian efforts to commit election interference on Trump's behalf, and Trump and his cabinet still lied about their ties to Russia (along with everything else). Heck, Sarah Sanders admitted to lying to Congress in the report. And you expect me to think nothing shady and unethical ever took place?
    1
  33.  Marco Polo1  There was plenty of collusion between Trump campaign and Russia. However, there was not enough evidence to prove a criminal conspiracy. Also note that some evidence was destroyed and that a criminal conspiracy requires a "meeting of the minds," which they couldn't prove to make out the charge.

  34.  @trishfitzpatrick2066  So when Trump told Don McGahn to fire Mueller, that didn't count?

  37. Panic over a president being implicated in federal crimes? How is that funny?

  38. Jim Brady Even if collusion isn’t a federal crime (the report said Mueller wasn’t investigating collusion anyway, but whatever), lying to prosecutors and to Congress is a crime.

  39.  @jimbrady1372  You seriously can't think of a single time when Trump lied? Lying about the Stormy Daniels payment doesn't count? Or lying about the Trump Tower meeting? Or lying about getting wiretapped by Obama? Or lying about literally anything?
    1
  40.  @jimbrady1372  1. Proven correct by who? Are you so lazy that you can't cite your sources? Actually, you probably don't read your own sources anyway. When Barr was pressed about alleging that Obama spied on Trump, he said he was not alleging that “improper surveillance” had in fact been carried out, but said he was concerned about the actions of senior FBI officials. He also declined to give details. So congratulations, your comment is bullshit. 2. Calling me a fucktard won't make me want to take you seriously. It makes me think you're an asshole, especially when even Trump's own Attorney General can't substantiate your claims. 3. About Stormy Daniels, lemme ask you this: would you be so dismissive if Obama had been the one who cheated on his wife with a porn star? No, you wouldn't. You'd call for a fucking lynch mob. We had one president get impeached for lying about an affair. Why should this one be any different?

  41. Mueller wasn’t investigating collusion. Instead, the investigation “applied the framework of conspiracy law, not the concept of ‘collusion.'” Collusion is not a word with “legal force,” the report states, meaning it does not constitute a federal crime. “While the investigation identified numerous links between individuals with ties to the Russian government and individuals associated with the Trump campaign, the evidence was not sufficient to support criminal charges” of conspiracy. That evidence may be incomplete because some witnesses, including from Trump’s campaign, deleted messages and information about their interactions. Because of this, “the Office was not able to corroborate witness statements through comparison to contemporaneous communications or fully question witnesses about statements that appeared inconsistent with other known facts.” Wow, you suck at facts.
    1
  42. Wrong about him being guilty of literally everything else? If you say so. The report still said that an underlying crime isn't needed for obstruction of justice to have occurred and to be charged, and Trump was already a white collar criminal when he ran in 2016, but who am I to let facts get in the way? Oh, there is one thing. Did you know that if you help to conceal a crime already committed, you can be charged as an “accessory after the fact"? Just saying.
    1
  43.  @c.august5358  So you're just going to ignore the fact that the Russians still committed election interference to help Trump win?

  44.  @too_short_cortetm8507  Oh, I dunno. How about destroying evidence? "[S]ome of the individuals we interviewed or whose conduct we investigated — including some associated with the Trump Campaign deleted relevant communications."

  45.  @sirmikalus9923  Whataboutism? Really? Do you think Hillary is the president now? Call for her to get investigated all you want, but nothing Hillary did excuses anything Trump did.

  48. Horatius Q. Durp You’re threatening to hold me accountable for something I had no part of, but you also claim that the investigation into something you claim Trump had no part of was misguided? Double standard much?

  49. Bruno Darkhorse At what point did I say Hillary had a spotless record? Your Dear Leader is a serial liar and a white collar criminal both morally and politically incompetent, and yet you think people are wrong for having issue with that? Hillary losing the election has nothing to do with my opinion of Trump. I didn’t trust him before 2015 and I still don’t. He could’ve run against a cardboard box and I would still rightly consider him an unqualified asshole.

  50. You say "no collusion" a lot for someone who claims not to be an NPC. Further, you say it like the report exonerated him of absolutely everything else. What the report said was "Trump enjoyed the help of Russia but didn't actively coordinate with them." Technically not collusion, but still illegal.

  51. Marco Polo1 THE RUSSIANS INTERFERED TO HELP TRUMP WIN AND YOU THINK I’M ON THE WRONG SIDE?!

  52. Common cents The report strongly suggests that there was at least an attempt to collude by Trump’s campaign and agents of the Russian government. If it’s not a crime, lying about it still is. Also, being an edge lord with less maturity than a fetus and excusing the actions of a white collar criminal aren’t positions that help the American people

  53. Common cents In order: yes, yes, no, and grow the fuck up

  54. Marco Polo1 So it’s okay for the Russians to interfere in our elections because they do it all the time? Do you expect that kind of defense to work in court? “Your Honor, I shouldn’t be arrested for murder because I commit murder all the time.” Also, the report outlined that members of the campaign were receptive to the Russians’ efforts whether Trump was personally involved or not. Also, listen to yourself. You’re excusing a crime with another crime that’s unrelated and you don’t even have any evidence to prove. How am I the one spreading fake news here?

  55.  Marco Polo1  How can I be a hypocrite for ignoring something you haven't proved the existence of? Or do Styx and Razorfist tell you not to bother because it's all so self-explanatory to everyone in the Tin Foil Hat Club?
