Here's what the report said with out any doubt.....Russia attacked our democratic election in 2016. And lots of people were indicted/convicted as a result.
What would you call someone who did everything in their power to stop that investigation including firing the person leading the investigation...and undermine the law enforcement institutions performing it....and siding with the dictator behind the attack instead of those institutions on a world stage? And the whole time calling the investigation a witch hunt.
I call that person a crook and a traitor.
Mueller said he does not have the authority to indict so he gave the evidence to the people who can. And so here we are. If you are ok with the president trying to cover up Vladimir Putin's attack on our democracy then that is your choice. Its a sad choice, but its your choice.
What you're missing here is the 'Witch Hunt' part of this was that Trump and his campaign 'Colluded with Russia to influence the election'. That was flatly proven wrong by the special prosecuter. You read the report, right?
What is now known is that Russia began interfering in American democracy in 2014. Over the next couple of years, the effort morphed into an attempt to interfere in our 2016 presidential election. The Obama administration knew this was going on and yet did nothing. Were they just being 'flexible with Vlad?' or are they 'Crooks and Traitors' too. Of course the more sisnister view is that Obama and Democratic partisans started the 'Collusion Delusion' in an attempt to weaken the Trump presidency. Those facts are still under investigation. I wonder if the Democrats are going to be as receptive to the IG Report as they were to media reports on Trump Collusion for all those years.
Still, President Trump has imposed the most severe sanctions on Russia and is positioning American Energy producers to better compete with Russia...that has clearly hurt Russia economically. If Trump is such a good buddy of Vlad, why would he be trying to crush their economy like this? Maybe because he's not a crook or a traitor but a true American Patriot.
