Whenever there is a major news story, it is always helpful to find a source of commentary that can easily explain the obvious. For me it was that TV show, The View. What do we make of a two year investigation that found no smoking gun, no outright proof of collusion between President Donald Trump and the Russian government? But the same report said that Trump was, to some degree, guilty of obstruction of Justice. If any other president did those things, their careers would be over. But to Trump and his loyal supporters, the man can do no wrong.
He’s a crook, a liar and a con man. He seems to be able to stay just one step ahead of the law. He’s slippery and just out of reach for any punishable offences. Those who really know this man, and aren’t conned into believing he is a “working class hero”Know that he is a no good scum bag. The sooner he leaves that office the better. Whether he is impeached or voted out of office—he really needs to go!
The hosts of The View didn’t know quite what to make of the first details that have emerged from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report on Monday morning.
“So, 22 months after Robert Mueller's investigation began, his report has been delivered,” Whoopi Goldberg said at the top of the show. “He found no evidence that the guy in the White House conspired with Russia . He stopped short of exonerating him for obstruction of justice, but you-know-who must not have read that part.”
For former Fox News host Abby Huntsman, the report’s apparent conclusion was good news.
“It did say in the report that Russia was clearly trying to impact our elections and that is a serious, serious issue,” Huntsman said. “But what obviously the big finding was that, no, there was no collusion between Trump or any American for that matter when it comes to colluding with Russia, which I would say, whether you like the president or you hate him, that's something we should all be happy about. (Personally I'm not.-Otto) The alternative is our president colluding with the Russian government. That’s a pretty bad place to be.”
