Trump says he has nothing to hide. The Dems show no signs of throwing in the towel. Do American voters still care?
A Newfoundlander might reckon that the arse is out of Democrats’ dream of putting Donald Trump in prison, but Congressional Dems pushed back Monday against the president’s substantial exculpation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller and vowed to fight on until ultimate defeat or the end of time, whichever comes first.
On Sunday, the erect and expressionless Mueller concluded—after 22 months of perfect, excruciating secrecy and 25 million American dollars of expenditure—that there was not enough physical evidence to prove that Candidate Trump had conspired with Muscovite moles to rig the 2016 election in The Donald’s favour, and left it to Attorney General William Barr to decide the prickly matter of whether Trump had indictable “criminal intent” when he cashiered FBI Director James Comey.
“Does all this endless Mueller-Trump-collusion-obstruction noise mean anything to the average American?” Rep. Connolly was asked. “Not in their daily lives,” he conceded. “If you’re evacuating your home, or you’ve lost your crops, or if your house is under water, it doesn’t mean much. But that doesn’t mean you don’t care about the integrity of your government. It doesn’t mean you don’t care about ethics in government.
“The Trump Administration shouldn’t get to lock up Robert Mueller’s report and throw away the key,” tweeted Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey. And when that is done, Graham vowed, “we will begin to unpack the other side of the story”—namely, the FBI’s half-arsed investigation of Hillary Clinton, her infamous emails, and how they wound up, the senator said, “in the hands of Anthony Weiner.”
