Here's Where the White House Stands With the Mueller Report

It's been 24 hours since Attorney General Bill Barr announced Special Counsel Robert Mueller has officially concluded his two-year long investigation into the 2016 presidential election. 

When the announcement was made late Friday afternoon, the White House had not been briefed on the report.

As of Saturday afternoon, the situation hasn't changed. Deputy White House Press Secretary Hogan Gidley told reporters Sanders' statement stands.

Meanwhile, President Trump is in Florida this weekend where he is conducting a series of meetings with foreign leaders and administration officials. He golfed Saturday morning and the White House called an early lid on the traveling press pool.

Attorney General Barr is expected to release a few details about the findings in Mueller's report as early as Sunday.

Attorneys for President Trump have reportedly asked for a briefing on the report before any of its details are made public.

If there is not enough evidence to indict, after two years, there must be no case at all.

Exactly..and Ive heard those BS rumors about Barr telling Mueller not to indict Trump Jr, etc..that is total BS..if Mueller wanted to indict, he would indict ANYONE he wanted to if he had ANY evidence of anything..the fact that there are NO sealed indictments, no indictments of any kind means this BS is over..but Dems will NEVER admit that they LOST in 2016 FAIR and SQUARE

Well, let’s examine the premise.

How much is it worth to have written proof provided by prominent Democrat lawyers that the President and his campaign did not collude with the Russians to destroy the Clinton attempt at the presidency?

God loves Republicans.

He shouldn't. They are feckless weaselly wascals who would sell out their own mothers for another round at the bar. I have no truck with democrats, but I spit almost every time I see a genuine GOPe republican. They need to be hunted to extinction to save out Constitution and our Republic.

Simply stated, if there was *any* evidence of "Russian collusion" found at anytime during the past 2 years, would it stand to reason that Mueller would submit his report at 5pm East Coast Time on a Friday and be outta D.C. before 6pm without indicting Trump? It's inconceivable.

This right here tells me all I need to know about the "Mueller report."

Trash not worth printing to crumble up and wipe my arse with after taking a good, healthy Obama.

The real waste of taxpayer money is the daily spend rate of the entire government that continued spending in its misguided fashion because the will of the voting public was being subverted by the Mueller nonsense. The cost of the investigation itself is a pittance by comparison.

“If there is not enough evidence to indict, after two years, there must be no case at all.”

Not on Russian collusion. The potential dangers will be from other investigations, especially from the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, and from the state of New York’s Attorney General.

Well..there’s always a recount and late absentee ballots to count to revise an obvious win for the good guys.

It’ll be interesting to see what tomorrow’s Sunday talk shows will be assaulting us with following the Mueller Report.

It’s never a good idea for people to be making plans while still in the throes of a nervous breakdown. Yet even now the DNC/media powers are concocting talking points and themes and anti-Trump attacks that no mentally healthy individual could even dream of.

So far, there seems to be a concerted effort to attack white supremacy, as if everyone’s been running around in white sheets and only Pocahontas and Kamala Harris can save the country.

For any given person, the stupidest remarks proceeding from their mouths are unlikely to represent an absolute measure of their full mental ability.

In other words, most people are not as stupid as their stupidest comments.

Let’s keep this optimism as we designate your comments here to the category of stupid, adding to that the thought that you still have some chance to restore your reputations simply with the acknowledgment that your comments here have no basis in fact or in sound judgment.

As we have seen in this case. Mueller hired rank partisan democrats to go after people with all the force of the Gestapo. If they could not find anything against the president in nearly two years with unfettered access and resources, I suggest there was nothing to find. And remember, there was nothing to suggest there would be anything to find from the very beginning. The original source of this investigation was fraudulent to begin with. So there should be no expectation that there would be something to find. That Russia and several other countries were playing with our internet even at the time of our elections, is very old news. We always new that. Its true of Israel and China as well as Russia. It is likely true of the EU as well. And of course the faulty evidence suggested that the Russians and Trump were in cahoots for over 5 years while the wiki-leaks emails were only written in April of 2016, before either Hillary or Trump one their nominations. The whole thing makes no sense.
