    Then try reading them instead of making things up. You'll quickly figure out you are wrong.

    As I said, I would not have impeached Clinton. He deserved getting the boot, but partisan politics was certain to save him.

    If nothing else, the two failed impeachments show we have a problem with relying on the process.
    His obstruction slowed the process as was pointed out by Mueller.
    Mueller is a Republican appointed by Republicans. So, Mueller was intent upon "hampering Trumps ability to get anything done?" Doesn't make a lot of sense and seems a bit paranoid.
    It would have before 2019.
    Trump was dumb unless he has something to hide. By obstructing Mueller, he slowed down the investigation and added to a second investigation into obstruction.
    It doesn't matter if a dossier was legit or not. There was reason to look at the Trump campaign because of the involvement of Trump operatives with foreign powers.
    There was very little "information" leaked to the media. They could have caught Trump with his pants at half mast if they had leaked "information" about his alleged sexual assaults.
    It's bad Trump was exonerated? Hohhhhh-Kayyyy...
    You're exonerated if you're innocent, not guilty.

    Actually Mueller specifically stated that the investigation was not hindered by Trump at all.

    Have you seen the thread around here labeled something along the lines of "Republicans against Trump"? Think that's a new thing? I seem to recall lots of Dems hooting and a hollering about how a bunch of Republicans hated Trump through out the last 4 years. So your statement here is not evidence of anything.

    No, it wouldn't have. In order to have actually stopped the investigation Trump would have had to fire each and every single investigator involved. This is not a situation where you cut the head off the snake the body dies. The investigators would have kept on trucking along until someone new as appointed and then reported their findings to that person. In this country things don't stop just because the Head of X agency/department/investigative team or hell, even the President of the United States is suddenly no longer around. It was purposely built that way. Redundancy upon redundancy upon redundancy.

    Except Mueller was not obstructed. And his investigation was not slowed one iota. Mueller himself admitted that.

    In that case then you should have no problem with Trump or Barr or some other agent taking up the case ordering/taking up an investigation into Biden, his son, and associates ties with Ukraine and China...right? They do after all have ties (I believe that's the term being used now a days) to government officials in both countries after all.

    Doesn't matter how much was leaked. What matters is what was leaked. And the leaks purposely came from a dossier that they knew was fake but associated Trump with Putin in a nefarious way.

    Wrong. Exoneration is only applies to those that are guilty or released from some form of liability like a bail bond.

    "Impossible" is kind of a strong word don't you think?

    I mean, did you actually read your article BEYOND the word impossible or, like a good sycophant, just stop when you saw the word you wanted.

    The claim is based on an unverified claim that Trump didn't meet this person till they got to Penn. Which, rather than 4 years later as implied, would have been a few months later, AT MOST since both attended Penn.

    No we have a guy, known as a cheater, who's accused of having a guy take his SATs for him. The guy just happened to be someone he knew, from the same city, who ended up, coincidentally, at the same college...

    More than one coincidence is a thing.

    He said he figured he got to the truth about Russia. Part 2 of Mueller's report is about Trump obstructing the investigation. Mueller said he wouldn't pass judgment on the obstruction case because Trump wouldn't be able to defend himself in court.
    I don't think so. The investigation would have ended until 2019 when Democrats took the House. The AG would have simply not allocated resources to further investigating.
    No, Mueller said Trump was not exonerated on obstruction.

    I think that's fair. Trump's crime was obstruction and Congress could remove him for that. They public wasn't saying, "Off with his head!" so Republicans figured they wouldn't have to remove him. It was a reasonable calculation until COVID-19. This isn't going down well...

    They're unhappy with Trump.

    They've had 3 1/2 years to look into Biden, his kid, and who knows what else. If they haven't, they aren't doing their jobs.
    So, all that is a sideshow. No one cares about the dossier. They want Trump to do what's necessary to get the COVID-19 new case count wayyyyy down. Masks? Wear them. Big parties? Don't have them. Bars? Clubs? Close them. Restaurants? Limited to take out.
    It's more in this instance than legal exoneration. What were talking about is political exoneration. Trump had it is his grasp, but tossed it aside when he obstructed.

    If Trump doesn't do a 180 on COVID-19, he won't be with us on January 21, 2021. Air Force One will have dropped him off at his his Mar a Lago estate. Of course, he could try to hold on, but the military would escort him away from the White House.
