Who is responsible for the Mueller report?
I watched the congressional hearing with the star witness, Robert Mueller, on the hot seat last week. It quickly became apparent that he did not know or did not remember what was contained within the report that bears his name.
Over time since he testified word has come out that the report was prepared by a group of Democratic Operatives and just added Mueller’s name on the cover, I feel sorry for him.
Democrats pinned their hopes that Mueller’s testimony would have been the knife in President Trump’s back that would have led him to resign or allow Congress to impeach him. It was a big disappoint for those who hate Trump and all the good things that have been accomplished in the 31 months since Trump took office.
I would like to copy part of an article penned by Townhall columnists Derek Hunter called “Democrats have Lost What Was Left of Their Minds.”
“Imagine being a Democratic right now. You have the house, and the Republican majority in the Senate is small. In the race for the president, you have every advantage with the exception of incumbency. Yes, the economy is booming but there isn’t a mainstream media or cultural institution that isn’t on your side and willing to do anything to help you win. All you have to do is not act crazy and you’re 99 percent of the way home. And that’s the problem; there are no longer any sane Democrats.
“The house hearing with Robert Mueller was supposed to be their shinning moment, their chance to rally the country to their far rejected cause. Instead, it was another in a long line of flops.
“It’s true that Mueller didn’t want to be there, but it appears everyone was wrong about the reason why. He’s not ‘above the fray’, as he was portrayed by liberals, he’s lost a lot of steps. Most shocking, the hearing exposed that he was, at best barely involved in the investigation. He was a name to put on the letterhead to give it gravitas and the appearance of bipartisanship.
“Democrats are running out of silver bullets to take out President Trump. First, they thought he’d implode. He didn’t. They said he’d destroy the economy, it’s thriving. They swore he colluded with Russia. He didn’t. They promised the Mueller report would change minds. It didn’t. They switched their focus to obstruction of justice. No one cared.”
But, if you think all this nonsense will stop, it will not. Because, most leaders of the Democratic party by now realize that if they can not get Trump out of office before the November 2020 election, they are certain that he will win another four year term and the Democratic party’s attempt to turn this country into a Socialist state will be dashed for next twenty or more years.
