    Mueller reminds of "To Serve Humans" on Twilight Zone fifty years ago.

    The right wing happily boards his 'spaceship of exoneration.'

    Some of it is over... more of it is not...

    And Trump ADDS to it... the primary difficulty for Dems and the American people is deciding which tentacle to cut off..

    If he had OOJ it was his DEFINED requirement to report that to the Attorney General. How can you have a crime but no evidence, a smoking gun?

    It's called the law in the USA which is quite different than your country. There is no requirement nor provision for exoneration as Mueller was schooled on yesterday.

    A distinction without merit. And no because Mueller did not look into the DNC/Clinton campaign collusion with foreigners including Russians to influence and then overturn an election.

    "Guilty until proven innocent" has become a mantra for the unAmerican Left.

    First Trump...then Kavanaugh...

    As Jim Jordan pointed out, their arrogance will soon be rewarded.

    Trump is a very good counterpuncher. His opponents should have figured that out after the first few dozen split lips.

    Nevertheless, Trump has, IMO, been exonerated by Mueller's investigation because the objective of the Mueller team had nothing to do with a legitimate investigation of some perceived crime. It was, in fact, a political dirty trick designed to first rig the election and failing that to nullify the election.

    Anyone who survives that kind of partisan witch hunt conducted by US secret police/spy agencies with the help of foreign spy agencies is completely exonerated by its public failure.
    I am amazed that this massive activity could not tag Trump with at least 1 (one) misdemeanor let alone a high crime.

    Who are you to say DEFINED or demand anything? You have no context.

    If Mueller exonerates Trump on collusion, then he can and has not exonerated him on OJJ.

    Contextualize that.

    Yes, here too on some stations. Fortunately our 50 watt station with the largest market share is still doing some decent journalism and honest reporting and is providing some honest analysis. I just wish President Trump would cool the tweets for a bit and let the loony left continue to hang itself in ridiculousness and mean spiritedness, but he is who he is. But for sure their hope that they would finally get him failed miserably.

    So you keep wanting Trump to be like Obama.

    This is not about reform for the right, it is only about power, which they will soon lose forever.

    Yup, a corrupt GOP president appointed a corrupt GOP AG who recused himself, who appointed a corrupt GOP AAG, who appointed a corrupt GOP Special Consul and former FBI Director.

    Every Prez can put their cabinet together, so what's the problem. Trump went for a Law and Order AG.

    After seeing Bob yesterday, no one expects Bob to exonerate anyone. No one expects Bob to tie his own shoes. If anyone is going to exonerate Trump it'll be congress ... again. Every time impeachment is voted down, congress declares that there isn't even prima facia evidence to warrant a charge. Pelosi's exonerated Trump on several occasions.

    No, he's an UnAmerican liar.. besides, being a prosecutor implies knowledge of the law and the ability to convince others using logic..

    Who actually did the right thing in recusing himself. Trump went nuts for two years because of it

    No one is expecting anyone to be able to make the OOJ charges go away.
