I'm trying to imagine what you think he will say that will make people cry?

Actually, I'm not expecting him to say anything political at all. I think he's doing his best to remain bipartisan, which is actually what the DOJ is supposed to do.

I'm thinking it is valuebuy who will need the "Bounty super absorbant (sic) paer (sic) towels" if Mueller doesn't outright state trump is innocent of any wrong doing.

'If we had confidence the President clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so. We did not,' Mueller says

well, at least you got the numbers right. 98% would include all the conservatives. |

"If the president had not obstructed justice we would have said so. We didn't say so. However, we didn't think we could indict a sitting president - that has to come from a different part of government (meaning Congress).
I'm still confused about why I'm supposed to be crying. He just repeated what was in the Mueller report to begin with, for anyone willing to read it, so no new news there. Should I be sad that so many Americans bought Trump's line about 'no collusion, no obstruction?'
I've given up being sad for the Trumpettes. You believe anything a well documented liar says, you get what you deserve.

I should also point out that, when Mueller said he was going to have a news conference at 11 AM, Trump tweeted that the Mueller investigation was closed, nothing to see there, nothing new would be announced.
Two hours before Mueller even started his press conference.
And for so many Trumpettes, that will be all the assurance they need that they're right. |

Trump is not exonerated.
What is a 20 count pack of Bounty? Like 20 rolls of paper towels, or is there a pack that only has 20 paper towels in it? I don't think paper towels come in packs of 20 rolls. Usually it is like 4 or 8 or 24. I could be wrong about it. Using paper towels if you are crying sucks. It hurts your skin and leaves you all raw and it is painful. Why are 98% of us crying so hard that regular Kleenex wouldn't be enough? Is it because our President is a criminal and there are bunches of people who refuse to see it? I hope Valuebuy has the testes to come back and answer my questions. I will send him some paper towels if he needs them.

Trump is rich. Trump is white. Trump is a man. Rich white men NEVER do anything wrong.
Pizzagate is real though. Also real Obama being an illegal Muslim from Africa. Those are both the God's honest truth.

Trump is presumably (unconfirmed) rich. Trump is white - this could be up for discussion. There is more that reminds me of Florida when I see him on TV than his golf course. Trump is a man - if I were male I would resent this statement, but he does have the requisite Y-chromosome so there is that. Rich white men NEVER do anything wrong - unfortunately in this society that seems to be the perception of an unbelievable number of people. Pizzagate is real though. Also real Obama being an illegal Muslim from Africa. Those are both the God's honest truth  . "Slightly" edited for the sake of clarity  |

Did that turn out the way you hoped? Maybe he thought we would all need paper towels because we did spit takes on our computer monitors when Mueller stated if Trump was innocent of committing obstruction he would have said so?
By the way, I snuck a peek at Fox News. They had Giuliani on, who is claiming Mueller got 'corrupted' by other people on the investigation, so we can't trust him anymore.
So once again, Trump is chunking someone he used to think was awesome right under the bus wheels.

there was a point in time where the GOP knew that, too. several points in time, actually.

Video footage of Trump handing Putin wads of cash while hookers pee on a mattress behind them would not be enough. FAKE VIDEO they would say.
Sometimes, you become so completely invested in a belief, there is no way you can stop believing it, and you have to ride it to the bitter end.
Remember those cult members who became convinced a UFO was hidden in the tail of Hale Bopp comet and it was going to take them away? The ones who committed suicide in their black outfits and purple shoes?
Like that.

What in the world are you talking about? Looks like it's you and Trump's cabal of sycophants, who needs the paper towels. Perhaps you can get Trump to throw them at you, like he did in Puerto Rico, which was a disgusting display in itself. Better yet, use hankies...they're reusable. WASHINGTON -- Special counsel Robert Mueller said Wednesday he was legally barred from charging U.S. President Donald Trump with a crime but pointedly emphasized that his Russia report did not exonerate the president. If he could have cleared Trump of obstruction of justice he "would have said so," Mueller said.
The special counsel's remarks, his first in public since being tasked two years ago with investigating Russian interference to help Trump win the 2016 presidential election, stood as a strong rebuttal to Trump's repeated claims that he was exonerated and that the inquiry was a "witch hunt" that found no crime. Mueller made clear he was barred from indicting a sitting president and that it was Congress' job to hold the president accountable for any wrongdoing. www.ctvnews.ca/world/mueller-special-counsel-probe-did-not-exonerate-trump-1.4442091 |

Did that turn out the way you hoped? Pretty much. The investigation was pretty much just a distraction according to him. He thanked A.G. Barr for releasing as much of the original report as Barr possibly could. that tells the democrats to get over it........nothing was hidden from anyone. He admits the Russians interfered with the election process. He indicted the Russian perpetrators He could not charge the President based on Federal law. He knew that from day one. He refuses to say anything more about the investigation. He is retiring or is about to, from government. Do not ask him anything about this in the future. He is not going to go before Congress. He admitted they could not find a chargeable offense by Trump, hence no collusion, no obstruction. A good prosecutor either finds a chargeable offense or closes the investigation. By ommission, he is also admitting no Trump family member or a member of his election staff or Presidential office staff colluded with the Russians because unlike the President, they could be charged for the crime and no one was charged. He sounded like he wanted to find Trump guilty and did his darndest, imo. Here is a good synopsis of today. www.msn.com/en-us/news/opinion/well-never-be-rid-of-robert-mueller/ar-AAC5Xwc?li=BBnb7KzOne other thing. I do not know how good of a public speaker he is, but he looked and acted very very tired. Hope his health is good. |

I now expect the Congressional Democrats try to Impeach Trump.
I want to thank the democrats for singlehandily being responsible for re-electing Trump in a landslide victory in 2020.

However, there is at least one statement that you made that I whole-heartedly agree with: I too hope that Mueller's health is good. And not for any political reason but just because I have no reason to wish him anything else.

Honestly, what bothers me most of all, is that in general we agree that Russia interfered and no one is talking about it. Are we going to do anything to discourage their behavior? Can we do anything to educate social media users? Can we do anything to minimize the damage? We won't because Trump might have to admit that he may have been helped by them (even if he didn't have any say in the matter) and doing that would put an asterisk next to the election results. His poor sad ego couldn't handle that.
