Still on the Mueller’s report that exonerated President
Trump from Russia collusion
Attorney General William Barr has delivered a four-page
summary of special counsel Robert Mueller's findings, and it could not have
turned out better for President Donald Trump. Here are my principal takeaways:
1. This is an unequivocal win for the country
That the president of the United States appears to have been
exonerated of treason — collusion with a hostile foreign power to win an
election — should make every American happy.
Unfortunately, Democrats had taken it as an article of faith
that Mueller would end their nightmare and frog-march Trump out of the White
House in handcuffs. Not only did that dream shatter, but Mueller also appears
to have absolved Trump of collusion.
On the issue of obstruction, Mueller, finding it too
complicated to draw a conclusion, allowed Barr to make the call. He did, and
Trump seems to be clear of that, too. Our nation will be spared what would have
been certain impeachment had Mueller and Barr found otherwise.
While some Democrats probably still want to go down that
road, Mueller's report makes it highly inadvisable.
2. Everyday Democrats ought to be furious with their party
leaders
There's a scene near the end of the "The Wizard of
Oz" in which the curtain is pulled back and everyone realizes there is no
wizard, just a manic man frantically pulling levers to intimidate people and
create an illusion.
That's what Democrats did for the past two years, and now
Mueller has pulled back the curtain to reveal the true hoax. Democrats now must
choose to accept the outcome of this investigation, or simply put the curtain
back in place and keep pretending we all didn't see what we just saw. Pay no
attention to the man behind the curtain, House Intelligence Committee Chairman
Adam Schiff will proclaim!
I understand that many Democrats are disillusioned in the
wake of this report, but focus your anger on the real culprits — Schiff, Rep.
Eric Swalwell of California and the other Democratic members of Congress who
took you for a ride. Without those clowns, you wouldn't have become so
emotionally invested in the idea that Trump's presidency was illegitimate due
to Russian collusion.
Honestly, I have sympathy for rank-and-file Democrats who
are demoralized today. Their entire party leadership, aided and abetted by a liberal
news media establishment, fed them a steady diet of bologna that just didn't
pan out. I'd be angry, too.
They put their trust in a group of snake oil salesman and
wound up ripped off. As an electoral matter, voters should turn away from a
Democratic Party that just tore the country apart on a total lie.
3. Americans should demand action to prevent future
interference
Now that this investigation is behind us, we need a plan to
stop Russia and other hostile foreign powers from interfering again.
Let's face it — President Barack Obama's administration
failed us in 2016, and we must learn from their mistakes, as the electoral
interference happened on his watch. Hopefully, Mueller's full report will give
us a road map to safeguarding our democracy in the future.
4. Trump deserves the benefit of the doubt for the next two
years
The president was robbed of that because collusion mania set
in immediately, never allowing his administration to function under the usual
sunshine instead of clouds. His decisions have been deemed illegitimate by many
Democrats who couldn't accept an election outcome and needed to salve their
emotional wounds by inventing this Russian collusion story.
Further, the 2018 election was run with the overlay of what
is now a proven falsehood — that voters had to rebalance the political
landscape to make up for Trump colluding with Russia to win in 2016. The entire
freshman Democratic class in the House is there, at least in part, because of a
bill of goods sold to the American people that whipped Democratic turnout into
a frenzy.
5. Hooray for government functioning properly
Mueller is a great American who deserves our thanks for a
job well done. I didn't agree with Trump's attacks on Mueller, and the special
counsel weathered that storm and completed his task by the book. No leaks, no
interference and no funny business here, just a comprehensive look that found
the president was not guilty of treason, as the Democrats claimed.
Surely, we can all celebrate the fact that our government
and its underlying institutions held fast — this investigation was legal,
conducted properly, and produced outcomes according to all of our laws and
regulations.
The information was not weaponized at any time during the
investigation, and the final conclusions have been transmitted properly to the
Congress. I agree that the full report should be made public, but that innocent
people who were interviewed should not be dragged through the mud for the
amusement of Democrats who must satisfy their bloodthirstiness with someone
other than Trump himself.
