The moving goalposts with this episode have really been fascinating.

First, allegedly some Russians "hacked" the election.

Then came the Russian collusion conspiracy theory. But then that fizzled out.

Now, suddenly the new worry is that President Trump obstructed justice.

These moving goalposts have turbo'd engines.

I am so sick of hearing about it. If they really want the man impeached, they should impeach him for not sticking to the campaign promise which got him elected in the first place. Building a border wall.
President Trump did everything in his power for the wall to be built. But the reason it hasn't been built is because the Democrats did everything in their power to oppose it, and they have the power of propaganda with about 90% of the media on their side.

As it turns out, it isn't the entire fault of Democrats and they aren't completely to blame for no wall.
There were a few "never Trump" Republicans that were working against Trump which was enough for Democrats to be successful in resisting Trump on the wall. I didn't say it was only the Democrats, but the fact is they have been the primary force of opposition to Trump.

I remember that. Let's face it, some cannot give credit when it is due. Like or dislike. It's all about the hate they proclaim to be against. But that's not true. It's plain for all to see. :sick:

The report specifically says that he is not exonerated, only that there is not enough evidence to charge him with a crime, which is what most everyone expected in the first place.


In the US justice system your eith guilty or not guilty. Prosecutors don’t exonerate.

They came at Trump with the full force of the law with unlimited financing and got zero.

That's not how it works. Mueller is operating under the precedent that the president cannot be indicted while in office, so no possible evidence would lead to a direct conviction. This video explains it pretty well:

Your missing the point.


Exoneration, in Criminal & Civil Cases. Under American law, a verdict in a criminal case is binary: guilty, or not guilty. (There is no intermediate Scottish verdict: “not proven.”) In a civil case the binary choice is liable, or not liable. N.B., In neither instance is there a formal legal finding of innocence. Absent a conviction, defendants are generally entitled to be presumed innocent, unless a verdict is clearly tainted

Indeed they do.

First, there was "no contact with the Russians"
Then, there was "contact but no collusion"
Then, there was, "well even if it was collusion, collusion is not a crime"
Then there was, "there may have been criminal collusion, but Trump wasn't involved"
Now it's "You can't obstruct Justice if you aren't charged with an underlying crime"

Lucy... grab the football.

That last one is my favorite...
If someone who's not me breaks into a car across the street from my house, and I engage in a mop-up operation with the intent to mislead law enforcement and hamper their ability to investigate and bring the actual perp to justice, (maybe simply because I dislike my neighbor who owns the car) I have most definitely committed obstruction of Justice, even though I had nothing to do with the underlying crime being investigated...

How do they come up with this stuff?
