If there is impeachment, Trump’s team will be able to create a money chart tracing the dossier payment right back to Hillary’s little trembling hand. On national TV.

The Democrats will not let the Russian collusion/ obstruction of justice debacle rest and will keep pounding on it into the election with the willing cooperation of talking heads at CNN and MSNBC. The American public is sick of this and wants to move on. In the meantime the two score Democrat candidates will move further left pushing an increasing socialist agenda. Biden will not get the nomination, but maybe Warren or Harris who will continue or even double down on the the far left agenda. Trump will be re-elected causing pandemonium on the left. I suspect we may see the emerging of a new liberal party as the Democratic Party will soon crash and burn.

Rep. John Ratcliffe To Mueller: Who Said It Was Your Job To Declare Non-Exonerations?
Hotair ^ | 07/24/2019 | Ed Morrissey /<> FR Posted by SeekAndFind

Rep. John Ratcliffe went to the heart of an assumption made by Mueller and House Democrats DJT's "obstruction." Ratcliffe wonders where Mueller found in his job description that requiring positive exoneration of DJT from charges of committing crimes.

RRatcliffe asks Mueller to cite an example where the DOJ "determined that an investigated person was not exonerated because their innocence was not conclusively determined"

Mueller reploed: I cannot, but this is a unique situation
CBS News (@CBSNews) July 24, 2019

Ratcliffe slams Mueller for writing "about decisions that weren't reached" on obstruction of justice: "I agree with the Chairman … when he said Donald Trump is not above the law, he's not. But he damn sure shouldn't be below the law"

RATCLIFFE: Prosecutors are not there to prove innocence. Unless they find probable cause that a crime has been committed, they are supposed to close the file and not comment on the degree of exoneration they have determined. In fact, it might be accurate to say that prosecutors aren’t in the exoneration business at all, unless it’s to eliminate a suspect in a case in order to prosecute another suspect.

.......a special counsel is guided under a statute that requires a report on any prosecution or declination decisions. William Barr chose to release the report with all of this detail on the declination decisions involving obstruction.......but Mueller (or somebody) wrote it as if Trump had to be proven totally innocent.

As Ratcliffe points out, half of the report relates to non-decisions, which is entirely outside the purview of the statute. “You wrote 180 pages,” Ratcliffe points out, “on DJT's pirported activities ....then claimed decisions could not be reached.” --snip---
