Mueller drew up obstruction indictment against Trump, Michael Wolff book claims
The Guardian ^ | 28-05-19 | Edward Helmore

Posted on 05/28/2019 9:16:30 AM PDT by Monrose72

A new book from Fire and Fury author Michael Wolff says special counsel Robert Mueller drew up a three-count obstruction of justice indictment against Donald Trump before deciding to shelve it – an explosive claim which a spokesman for Mueller flatly denied.The stunning revelation is contained in Siege: Trump Under Fire, which will be published a week from now, on 4 June. It is the sequel to Fire and Fury, Wolff’s bestseller on the first year of the Trump presidency which was published in 2018. The Guardian obtained a copy of Siege and viewed the documents concerned.

“an explosive claim which a spokesman for Mueller flatly denied” Why let something like a denial stop a good narrative??

Hitlery destroyed emails and mocked the investigation with a crack about wiping her server with a cloth.

They are going to begin to draw parallels between the Comey “exoneration” of Clinton and Mueller’s failure to indict Trump on obstruction. This was orchestrated to shield Clinton.

the Guardian writer, Edward Helmore, enjoys fiction:

15 Aug 2016: Guardian: Edward Helmore: Donald Trump: I’m running against ‘crooked media’, not just Hillary Clinton
Allies defend campaign as Republican presidential nominee struggles in polls
Candidate questions role of free press as he claims unfair coverage
In search of answers about plummeting polls and reports of despair within his presidential campaign, Republican nominee Donald Trump questioned the role of a free press on Sunday, as his allies struggled to argue that their candidate remained focused on winning the general election...

Earlier on Sunday, campaign chairman Paul Manafort tried to pour cold water on the reports that had enraged Trump...
Manafort’s defence followed a New York Times report of confusion at the heart of the Trump campaign, quoting from more than 20 associates who anonymously described the candidate as increasingly angry, glum, and refusing to follow counsel from his advisers. Separately, Politico reported that Republican party leaders had started private talks about cutting off financial support for their nominee...

In the background behind Trump and Manafort’s media criticism, new polling data shows Trump falling behind secretary Clinton by five or more points in key swing states, including Virginia, Colorado, Florida and Pennsylvania. A newly released NBC-Wall Street Journal poll shows Clinton leading in Virginia and Colorado by double digits.
Nationally, polling averages show Clinton with a nearly seven-point lead. Reflecting the average, a recent poll Washington Post/ABC poll showed Clinton leading 50% to 42%.
Meanwhile, the queue of Republicans looking to abandon Trump grew larger on Sunday...
