    Mueller Report paid for itself in fines.

    And then some...

    I believe the final figures are:

    Final Cost (High End Guess ) - 35M (Low = 32M)
    Manafort Seizures (Low End Guess) - 42M (High = 46M)

    http://money.com/money/5639569/mueller-report-cost-waste-of-money-fines/

    I'm no economer, but that's an income of between 7M and 14M....

    They got lucky. It was not the intent of the investigation. That would be like if I began digging a well, hoping to find water, and struck oil instead, but still never got water.

    How much in fines? Any evidence to support your claim?

    All of Mansforts civil forfeitures are tied up in court cases where creditors with a superior interest are fighting. We are losing more money

    True.

    And the most hilarious part:

    Trump Already KNOWS that he going to LOSE in 2020
    ^So he is getting an early start on planting these Imbecilic "Voter Fraud" conspiracies (that nobody (except him, apparently) takes seriously).

    Bullshit. Read the Report's introduction. The intent was purposely broad.

    Actually it wasn't the three agencies but a selected few from those agencies who came to the conclusion who were not officially speaking for those agencies.

    AND! don't forget to add HILLARY, I guess it just comes down to which LIAR! you admire the most, because they all LIE. Everyone of those Numnucks you see up there at the DNC Debates promising Free Stuff to everyone is a LIAR and you've probably told quite a few LIES! in your life also. The whole world is just one big LIE-ATHNON. where Liars are pointing fingers at other Liars and proving themselves to be big lying Hypocrites. I'm a LIAR, Deal with it, but don't be a Hypocrite and say you're not.

    Google tried to influence the election results. But we don’t know if they were able to change any votes. It’s not possible to quantify.

    google is neither pro or anti Trump

    Trump just does so much idiotic stuff that it tops the search results, that is not googles fault

    It appears through the manipulation of google and likewise companies some have been misinformed about this topic. I hardly blame these people, the bias has manipulated these folks on a “massive scale” and they seem “divorced from the facts”

    Sounds like Clinton is bashing her own voters now who have testified about the manipulating bias that was done on a “massive scale”

    LOL... it's good to see there are people who can use Twitter with a scalpel, instead of a sledgehammer...

    Good one, Hills....

    It certainly had more of an impact than the Russians spending 0.00000002% of the total amount spent in the 2016 election.

    No, the story was that he expected to lose in 2016... difference between expecting and knowing.....

    However, I disagree with AJ that Trump knows he is going to lose in 2020, because that implies he has some knowledge...

    According to the professor’s testimony it certainly did and will again in 2020. This is why the dems continue to block any meaningful legislation. They welcome the interference and manipulation

    no they don't in the case of the special prosecutor who can't indict a sitting president. Meuller even addresses that issue on page 2 of his report.

    I believe Trump thought he was going to lose in 2016, because polls were saying Hitlery had a 98% chance of Winning, but how'd that work out for her. She was crying in her Soup election night:roflol:
