Opinion | Barr Is Right About Everything. Admit You Were Wrong.

As Attorney General William Barr said on Thursday before releasing the Mueller report, “After nearly two years of investigation, thousands of subpoenas, and hundreds of warrants and witness interviews, the special counsel confirmed that the Russian government sponsored efforts to illegally interfere with the 2016 presidential election but did not find that the Trump campaign or other Americans colluded in those schemes.”

I find that it is too easy to say all Democrats are the same. What certain people stuff in our faces on TV does not speak for any and all Democrats. We can let each one speak for oneself, and take the time to really get to know a person.

So, ones are claiming that Russians interfered with the election, it seems. And Donald lost the popular vote; if the Russians had not interfered, I wonder if Donald would have lost more votes so he would not have made it in.

But, may be the Russian hoaxsters were giving Donald a bad name, by how they disrespected and misrepresented Hillary, for all I know. So, it could have effected things, either way.

Ones may say Russian misrepresentation swayed votes away from Hillary, but I look at how someone treats another person in a Biblical way or not, in order to have a feel for if the person is credible. Un-Biblical treatment of a candidate can backfire against the one who is disrespectful and unloving and not caring for someone in prayer the way Jesus says for us to love even enemies. When ones looked down on others, Jesus would warn us to be humble and not exalt ourselves in comparison with ones we consider to be wrong, right?

And, of course, "God resists the proud" > James 4:6, 1 Peter 5:5. So, He can see through ungodly ways of relating and resist the ones who are not relating His way, thinking they are too good for Jesus > and therefore being proud, I would say. Jesus did not approve of the guy standing in prayer and looking down on the sinner who was at a distance > Luke 18:9-14 < so, of course, then, I need to not be looking down on anyone who is looking down on others!!

This is not a New York Times article, so the title of the thread is a bit misleading. It's an opinion piece by Chris Buskirk, a Trump supporter and publisher of the conservative web site American Greatness. Of course he's going to say Barr was right.

Wrong about what? I've always held that Trump is a disaster as a man and is unfit to be president and this report only confirms it. Whether he was a Russian plant or not never really factored into that assessment.

The right isn't changing by much. On the other hand the left is stretching itself so far to the left that it is fracturing itself in half from it's base. If traditional democrats want any chance of ever getting elected again you have to reign in these crazies on the news. The emotional incontinence over trump needs to stop. I didn't vote for him, but these crazies are mentally unhinged and tearing the country apart to achieve their ideology.

STRAWMAN:

And yet nearly the entire complex of elite media was actively complicit in promoting the biggest political conspiracy theory in American history: that Hillary Clinton lost the election because Donald Trump conspired with Vladimir Putin to well, that was always a moving target — but to somehow deprive Mrs. Clinton of victory. What we now know definitively is that Robert Mueller, the special counsel, and a team of very accomplished, mostly Clinton-supporting, prosecutors were unable to find evidence of a conspiracy that had been taken as an article of faith by Trump haters.

....and simply false. But I recognize this is the narrative the Op and many others want to believe.

If traditional republicons want any chance of ever getting elected again you have to reign in these crazies on FOX. The emotional incontinence over trump needs to grow. I didn't vote for him, but these crazies kissing trumps assss are mentally unhinged and tearing the country apart to achieve their devilish wants.
