THE REPORT, buttoned up (SCO Thread v. 33)

[OverCoronavirus Pressure]

Process crimes and paul f... not too impressed.

I don't think people should be taking a victory lap on this.
It doesn't sound very good for Trump despite not being charged.
I don't see how the lack of a chargeable presidential offense amongst all that criminality is something to crow about.
He's got shit on his shoes but not on his shirt, victory!

 

[andnowweknow]

It's already been posted twice. You are quoting the CNN edited quote.

Are you honestly not aware what you are posting is not the FULL quote?

YOU posted it out of context, and jumped to some shit from a later point in the notes. First he was "Fucked", than you are trying to find context, which you also misinterpret and give Trump the benefit of the doubt on, which he clearly doesn't believe after that debacle of a report documenting his farcical behavior.

 

[Ultra O’Dia]

I know Trump's guilty, and anyone who says otherwise is a goddamned liar.
I will wait until the next accusation and ridicule people who say it is without merit. When it is proven to be without merit, I will know who more lying Nazis are.

Trump is evil, and I will not accept otherwise even if the facts are fucking me in the face.

If Clinton laid the ground work to beat an impeachment and obstruction case trump certainly made a mansion. oh yeah remember when Republicans were like this with Clinton? Graham is so embarrassing.

 

[AlexDB9]

You couldn't even respond with anything coherent and dodged why trump no longer could remember the events Mueller asked him about. Arguing with you is just a waste of time. You know trump is shady but all you have is trump gonna win! Take that libruls!

I’m pretty sure I was clear enough in my response to you

I can only say that it seems to me that there has been a different standard for other presidents.

Shame the real Trump is obese

I agree for the most part.

I also think anyone who got really invested and spent a ton of time debating the various aspects of the investigation totally pissed their time away.
It was an all around shit show from the beginning.

Look at my prediction just minutes before it came out.

Both sides will claim vindication, the whole thing was a giant thurpttttt. **farting sound**

Well it's long, but among other things:

Vol. 1; Pages 53-54
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/04/18/us/politics/mueller-report-document.html#g-page-61

It's clear the trump campaign reached out to Wikileaks who they knew had data stolen by the Russian state (Barr gave a retarded explanation for why that couldn't possibly be illegal this morning with "collusion with WikiLeaks could not amount to a criminal conspiracy because WikiLeaks’ publication of the emails was not a crime so long as it did not help Russia hacking them."

So according to "the president can never be indicted ever" Barr, even though the trump state knew that they were working with wikileaks who was working with the russian state, the trump campaign is blameless because wikileaks didn't actively help the russians with the hack, they just disseminated selected info on their behalf.

That should be impeachable, if we have any integrity.


Or Vol. 1; Page 9:
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/04/18/us/politics/mueller-report-document.html#g-page-17

Where Trump ordered WH personnel to lie about his attempts to fire Mueller. That's pretty much obstruction on it's face, unless you accept Barr's "it's not obstruction because his lawyers refused to lie for him," excuse.

Or Vol 2; Page 4
https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/04/18/us/politics/mueller-report-document.html#g-page-216

Where Trump called the acting AG at home and directed him to fire Mueller. Again, obstruction unless you believe trump is off the hook because McGahn refused.

And this is of course excepting the large portion that's redacted that deals mostly with Roger Stone reaching out to wikileaks on behalf of the trump campaign. Of course it's likely the most damning portion, hence why Barr's going to keep that redacted as long as possible. His excuse for that being that it would prejudice a future jury, which is just plain horseshit.

Oh, you've found the collusion that Mueller and his team couldn't.....



As for the obstruction, I thought we all assumed he tried to obstruct. I said long ago that if he was innocent that he was going to a lot of trouble to look guilty.

COMEDY GOLD.

Like when Sarah Sanders told Mueller that she lied about Comey.

https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2019/04/18/mueller-report-sarah-sanders-lied-comey-sot-vpx.cnn

Anyway the report is VERY damning, but people VERY do not give a fuck.

It is damning to the ‘gotcha’ people in the MSM and on the left. A big waste of time and money. I just skim read it then and (naively going on media reports) thought it would look far worse for Trump than it did, but no. This is once again the boy who cried wolf. Not 3 times but about 50 and the ‘gotcha’ moment was Trump saying “I’m fucked” Really?

It’s time after nearly three years, for the media to start doing their job again and the Dem controlled congress to do theirs.

 

[BarryDillon]

Time for Congress to do its fucking job.

 

[hillelslovak87]

Why do you guys keep using the term process crimes to obfuscate? You know those are felonies, right?

A. I doubt anyone here would trust your skimming as representative of the contents of the report, nor would anyone take you seriously had you read it in full.
B. The investigation actually turned a profit just on the seizures of Paul Manafort's property, so this waste of money shit kind of goes out the window
C. Mueller essentially left it to congress to impeach the man

It's especially funny because Sleepyboy made a total fool of himself insisting that Clinton was some kind of criminal for not being careful enough with information security. This guys just have no sense of honor and don't mind looking ridiculous.

 

[Bloody Pulp]

He says "I'm fucked"...than goes on to complain about other stuff, likely after someone told him to calm down.

 

[SleepyBoy]

You mean being Martha Stewart-ed?

LOL at you being serious.

It IS bad bad bad bad for Trump.

...but I doubt it matters.

All he does is lie, but...oh well.

Americans don't care, in part because they are ULTRA tribal and just...dumb.

 

[andnowweknow]

Memes is all that's left.

 

[andnowweknow]

Time for Congress to do its fucking job.

First they will get the unredacted report.

Then they will bring Mueller to testify.

See what happens after that.
