Mueller thinks he is smarter than we are. Notice how his sleight of hand starts with the his apptmt. order to determine if the 2016 election was interfered with. As an aside, this is a stupid mandate since everyone knows there has always been foreign interference to some degree just as we regularly meddle in foreign elections. So with regard to the basic mandate, there was nothing new there to discover. Now watch the magician’s hands. As he distracts you with his right hand - the Russians meddling - with his left hand, he suddenly pulls out of the hat the insinuation or implies that Trump may have been behind the meddling. Again, there is not a shred of evidence to support this smear. Then, after making this totally outrageous accusation, he leaps to obstruction of justice when Trump get rightfully incensed and mad over being falsely accused of being behind the meddling. Can you see the trick they are trying to get away with? Don’t fall for it.

So they can exonerate you if they are 100% sure you are innocent but they can never clearly state that you did something wrong? That’s total BS.

Mueller is German for miller, one who grinds grain between stone wheels to make flour.

People often live their names. In this case, perhaps, “The wheels of justice grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine.”?

Not this time.

You are an embarrassment to your craft and your name, Mueller.

“If We Had Confidence President Did Not Commit a Crime We Would Have Said So”

Considering the number of potential crimes that can be committed in the US (invented or otherwise), I doubt he could say that about 80% of the US population.

This is a transparent attempt to avoid the questions that would be asked by the minority if he agreed to appear before the house committee. I wonder if the Rats will subpoena him or accede to his wishes.

If I were Lindsey Graham, I would subpoena Andrew Weissmann and ask him a few questions.

I know Rosenstein is gone. I don’t think it’s an coincidence Mueller waited for him to resign before he did.

Let's consider the number of actual crimes committed by members of Congress!

“...provide a basis for impeachment and to try and stop the Barr investigation and Trump’s declassification of incriminating documents. The coup plotters need to be brought to judgment and this makes it that much harder.”

How so? I completely disagree. This will give the Dims a few days of talking points, that’s it.

Mueller’s contradictions within this statement and contradictions with his other statements and his bald face lies will not help the Dims.

I can’t wait for the day when Mueller is perp walked out of his house, in the middle of the night, like Roger Stone was.

Anything Romney says has a shelf life of about 5 minutes and then he’ll say the opposite.

Did Ruth Bader Ginsburg have a stroke last night or something?

Did something happen relating to Iran?

You can't always conclusively prove that someone DID NOT do something.
Our justice system is not based on that.
Of course the Left will read too much into it and incorrectly assume the door to impeachment is still open a crack.

Mueller proved he’s a lowlife political hack.

Mueller and his hand-picked, Trump hating Democrats couldn’t find or prove any crimes, so that’s the end of their “trumped-up” investigation and 448 page “report.”

Arrogant Mueller didn’t stick around for any questions.
Of course not.

His purpose was to smear AG Barr, President Trump and give fuel to the Democrats.

Trump’s enemies have nothing now that they didn’t already have. On the contrary. We’ll be seeing clips of Mueller’s statement during election season every five minutes in Democrat ads. Guaranteed.

You are (unfortunately) correct.

Dems will trumpet this as "Mueller was begging us to impeach the criminal Trump he couldn't prosecute because his hands were tied..."

I was shocked at first to hear a soundbite last week (despite Barr) of a Dem saying "We have to impeach because of the collusion shown in the Mueller report...."

They wanted SO badly for collusion to be shown that they convinced themselves and the media and try to convince us that collusion was there after all.

The hate against President Trump from the biased Hillary & Obama donors with Mueller was so intense the Dems feel it steaming out of the report indirectly.

““If we had confidence the president DID NOT commit a crime we would have said so. We did not however make a determination if the president did commit a crime.””

Makes no sense and is not constitutional.

A determination a crime was committed is all that matters.

Anyone at any time could be arrested or prosecuted if the standard is they may have committed a crime but we can’t be confident.

Does he expect us to believe that THE BAND OF CORRUPT CUTTHROATS THAT HE ASSEMBLED WHO HATED THE PRESIDENT WOULD EVER...EVER SAY POTUS DID NOT COMMIT A CRIME.

It is not in their genes to be honest, for God’s sake.

Not being familiar with the report almost seems like an attempt at “pausible deniability”, all the while he was deeply at the heart of, and directing the biggest and most agregous hateful act against the US Constitution and electorate in US history, beside the civil war!

And Mueller doesn’t want voters to arrive at the real conclusion he was involved in massive fraud and illegality, as well as the sedicous and treasonous conspiracy he directed.
