Since there is no crime, let’s release all the evidence before the (impeachment) trial. Bizarre!

The media: “Gosh darn it! If Mueller won’t leak incriminating, embarrassing info on Trump, we’ll dig it up ourselves. Now, give us the documents!!”

Actually, it's increasingly looking like the investigation was based on nothing remotely wrong at all, just started on bare faced lies.
