Hakeem Jeffries says Trump could be illegitimate, a Russian asset or "useful idiot"

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, the fourth-highest ranking Democrat in the House, said special counsel Robert Mueller's report should be made public so Americans can find out whether President Trump is a legitimate leader, an asset of the Russian government, a kingpin or a "useful idiot."

"Let's take the first step in terms of the full disclosure of the report and the underlying documentation," Jeffries said on "Face the Nation" Sunday. "The American people deserve to know whether Donald Trump is either: A, a legitimate president; B, a Russian asset; C, the functional equivalent of an organized crime boss or; D, just a useful idiot who happens to have been victimized by the greatest collection of coincidences in the history of the republic."

Concluding a far-reaching investigation that ran for almost two years, Mueller submitted his final report to Attorney General William Barr on Friday, triggering a new effort by Democrats to ensure the probe's findings are made available to all members of Congress and eventually, the American public. Barr and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein spent Saturday and Sunday reviewing the report and preparing to brief top lawmakers in Washington.

Jeffries, considered a rising star in the Democratic caucus, said his party wants the Justice Department to release as much of the report as possible. "We don't want to see simply crib notes," he said. "We don't want to see an outline. We don't want to see an executive summary. We need to see everything so that the American people can draw conclusions on their own."

Asked if House Democrats will seek to launch impeachment proceedings against the president regardless of Mueller's conclusions, Jeffries said Democrats didn't run on impeachment in 2018 when they took control of the House after nearly a decade in the minority.

Hakeem ought to be embarrassed for making such a stupid comment. Proves that he has no substance other than the goal to get rid of Trump. Hakeem apparently got an “A” in grade school for name-calling.

'Trump could be illegitimate, a Russian asset or "useful idiot"', but, in fact, he is the greatest President in the history of the USA.

Not according to the latest FoxNews polls. They are almost giddy reporting that either Biden or Sanders will defeat Trump in 2020 according to their poll results.

Hakeem can schlep back to the mosque and ask "Allah" what the hell went wrong. LOL!

Speaking of "Hakeem," do any Muslims play football? Are they aware that a football is pig skin? LMAO!!!!

They are full of Obamacrement. They need to keep the whole lie and coup alive. I give President Trump credit for having patience,fortitude and a keen sense when not to overreact. I would be grabbing these a-hole by their throats for their threats especially personal and what they are doing to the country.
