oh boy
---

I'm sure it'll be hinting at something juicy but also restricted because he can't ignore the higher-ups and statutes like that.
---

his stance of "i dont want to say anything because that would be political" is bullshit because his silence is inherently political. about time he steps up.
---

He will be acting like a pompous ass and get on his high horse but say nothing substantial.

He had every chance to be poignant at his investigation but didn't because he is pompous like that

The cultists are shook. Now is the time.

The fact of the matter is, if trump had colluded with Russia, mueller would be unable to say that he did. So the fact that he said what he said is a clear indication that trump colluded with Russia.

What rationalizations are they going to conjure up for themselves?
---

So Trump wasn't charged because of the DoJ policy.

Yikes.
---

I just wanted to see if he would address the part of the report that concerned Fusion GPS and Guccifer 2.0.

Unsurprisingly, he didnt.

"We do not have evidence that he's innocent.
We legally cannot accuse him of a crime.
We will not say one way or the other whether he commited a crime."
---

What happened to his testimony?
---

i jumped the gun a bit there. looks like he wont testify but he just blew the totally exonerated talking point outta the water

When will da Democrats learn
---

He just said Trump didn't break the law.
---

Mueller then explained, citing Department of Justice policy, that a President "cannot be charged with a federal crime while he is in office. That is unconstitutional."

This is just embarrassing at this point.

I mean, it's clear that the Russians fucked with the U.S. elections, but to think Trump was some kind of mastermind who was colluding is almost 9/11 Truther-level of crazy at this point.

CALLED IT!

"Oh! Look at me I am so professional!!!' "oh, look at me, I am so fair!!" "oh! look at me, I am so pure and correct that I chose not to make any determinations in my probe!!!" "see you later, aligators!"

Lmao no he didnt. He said its unconstitutional to charge a sitting president with a crime. He made it clear that Trump commits a crime but they are unable to charge him
---

trump being potus is the only thing stopping him from rotting in prison
---

I misunderstood what he meant when he said "had confidence that the President clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so."

So because they never said he didn't commit any crime then he did commit a crime.
---

Wait, so based on this policy, a president could get away with literal murder if there was proof because hes a sitting president ?

Am I misunderstanding ?

He can't be federally charged but I'm assuming he can be charged by the state? LMAO man this shit is confusing.

Thats what it sounds like. Scary and needs to be changed IMMEDIATELY
---

The problem with these overarching statements is that people will make their own versions of it.

The clear thing is that he never said that the President was innocent and that indicting him was never an option because of the DoJ policy.

Feels like he's passing the buck over to Congress and he's definitely getting subpoenaed.
---

as long as you have the magic R by your name and a evil turtle covering your ass he could get away with anything

Yeah, it almost sounds like he was setting himself up for it too even if he said he is resigning and wants to close the case.

Yeah. He's pretty clear that he wants to indict him but can't because he's the president.

He also says it's not a good idea to accuse someone of a crime unless you can take them to court.

Yea it was strange. Its almost like he was hoping he would. He knows how it would look if he voluntarily went to Congress. Being subpoenaed sounds like the best move for the country. I think he knows that
---

So....this was pointless and presented no new information whatsoever. Trump supporters will still stick to their narrative, the far left will still stick to their narrative, nothing will come of this at all
---

even as a trump hater i'm getting sick of this

finish the fucking thing already jfc
---

I mean at least we know for a fact Russia really did hack our shit in favor of Trump.

We got him now, boys!

Sounds more to me be like hes sick and tired of this shit and how it wasted two years of his life, and he just wants it to end.

And yes, he obviously will be subpoenaed by Congress, and his testimony will be as measured and unsatisfying there as it is now. Just another round of future disappointments for people who are expecting an impeachment.

Literally nobody on planet earth thinks Trump is the mastermind behind this.

What a hilariously sad attempt to sweep this under the rug.

They have enough to impeach the president now. They are just afraid of the public. They dont need Mueller for that outside of the public opinion
---

The idea that the president is immune from prosecution was just invented to protect Nixon. There's no constitutional basis for it.

Democrats are constantly looking for a ref to make some call rather than playing the game.
---

So the president is above the law after all.
---

He can still be indicted by state law. Just not by federal law. Local authorities should go arrest him ASAP.
---

Nothing changes from the Mueller Report. There was insufficient evidence and therefore, in our Country, a person is innocent. The case is closed! Thank you.
