For two years we were told to wait for Robert Mueller to speak. That there was no one who knew more about President Trump and the many allegations of Russia conspiracy/collusion and obstruction of justice then he did.
Then, on Wednesday, July 24, 2019, Mueller spoke and didn’t even appear to know where he was and looked as if he was introduced to his own lengthy report for the very first time.
Make no mistake about it, Mueller accomplished much on this fateful day. He demonstrated to the American people that he was not in charge of his own investigation. It was in his name only. The rabid, Trump-hating, Obama-Clinton loving Democrat attorneys, who Mueller appointed ran the whole, dirty show. All doubt has now been removed. It is was a most powerful display, that boomeranged right into the faces of the partisan Democrats.
Previously, the confidential, long-awaited Mueller Report was released to the public in an unprecedented fashion by United States Attorney General William Barr. The final result was in. No conspiracy/collusion with Russia and no obstruction of justice.
“The Mueller Report, The Final Report of the Special Counsel into Donald Trump, Russia, and Collusion” was even turned into a book, with a Forward by Alan Dershowitz. It became a New York Times Bestseller.
The American people were billed more than $ 40 million for this hoax. The radical Democrats were not satisfied when President Trump was fully vindicated. They said we had to hear directly from Robert Mueller, III, who did not want to testify publicly and said so. Now we know why. Mueller’s appearances before The United States House of Representatives Judiciary and Intelligence Committees were a disaster for the partisan Democrats.
Please don’t take my word for it. Here are the exact words of prominent Democrats immediately following Mueller’s unsteady testimony as follows:
NBC New Political Director Chuck Todd: “Mueller hearing an optics disaster and the special counsel didn’t advance the cause for Trump impeachment.”
Savanah Guthrie led a NBC panel discussion and said, “When the Democrats were asked why. Why would they put Robert Mueller on the witness stand, why did he come before Congress when he’s issued this report, they said, because you needed to have this report come alive, because the movie will be better than the book, that it would captivate America’s attention and focus them on the issues here. And to our panel, I ask the question, is it mission accomplished?”
CHUCK TODD, NBC NEWS: “If that was the goal, it’s a complete failure on that front.”
Democrats experienced anxiety attacks over Mueller’s testimony. They can’t believe or won’t accept how bad it went. It was if ABC, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, The Washington Post, New York Times and more were rhetorically curled up in a fetal position, nearly passed-out on the floor trying to remain conscious as Mueller’s testimony continued for five torturous hours.
United States Congressman Ted Lieu, D-33 California has gone so far as to say that “someone got to Mueller.” They simply will not accept that there was no “there,” there in the first place. You can’t find what’s not there. However, Lieu represents the beautiful people of of Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Bel Air, the Palos Verdes Peninsula and the Beach Cities. They will never accept that President Trump is even their President.
The Democrats are now breathing in and out of paper bags to stop from hyperventilating. They refuse to accept defeat.
Former Barack Obama senior political adviser called Mueller’s testimony a “disaster,” saying that Mueller does not appear as sharp” as he was six years ago “This is delicate to say, but Mueller, whom I deeply respect, has not publicly testified before Congress in at least six years. And, he does not appear as sharp as he was then.” Axelrod said this publicly on CNN and tweeted it to his 1.1 million followers.
Anti-Trump Harvard University lawyer Lawrence Tribe also called Mueller’s testimony a “disaster,” that set back impeachment prospects. “Much as I hate to say it,” said Tribe. (Note, that he hates having to admit the truth). “This morning’s hearing was a disaster. Far from breathing life into his damning report, the tired Robert Mueller sucked the life out of it.”
Tribe has taught at Harvard for more than 50 years. He is so radical that he recently compared President Trump to Adolph Hitler. Remember, Trump Derangement Syndrome is real and Tribe’s got a very bad case of it.
Tribe also once said about President Trump, “If you’re going to shoot him, you have to shoot to kill,” said Tribe. Tribe felt perfectly comfortable saying these hateful words to another “Never Trumper,” CNN’s Chris Cuomo. He knew he’d be protected by the media.
I strongly believe in our Constitutionally-provided rights regarding freedom of speech, but, Tribe’s words should have been considered a crime and threat against the President. Of course, Tribe is still a Professor at Harvard and there was absolutely no consequence for his dangerous rhetoric. The Socialist Democrats can say and do anything with impunity in during The Age of Trump.
Tribe has often been referred to (by the Democrat media) as “The 10th United States Supreme Court Justice.” This is a label (to falsely elevate him) that I find to be repugnant and completely undeserved. The media has hopelessly wished for decades that Tribe be given a seat on our coveted Supreme Court. Since they know that it will never happen, they invented an “honorary” place for him to serve on the court.
I don’t have to quote even one Republican as to how bad the Mueller appearance on Capitol Hill went. I predicted in advance on-air and in this space that the Democrats would regret ever calling Mueller to testify publicly before their Committees.
It’s too late now, but, what they should have done was to have Mueller appear in closed session and then leak the transcripts to the American people. In Mueller’s current “state,” he would have agreed to every false allegation that the Democrats would make.
However, when you suffer from “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” there is no objectivity or clarity of mind. They were convinced that the “movie” would play better than the written word.
They calculated wrong. Do not expect them to retreat or surrender. They won’t. Our radical Democrat Socialists will slog on and make no mistake, it will be at their own election peril.
The American people have turned the page on this entire false narrative. President Trump has proven that a sleazy Democrat-led “Witch Hunt” was the case from the beginning.
Now, get ready. The pendulum is about to wing the other way. Democrats are going to be on defense. United States Inspector General Michael Horowitz’ long-awaited report will be released (most likely) sometime in September. For the first time, the American people will learn about the improper conduct of James Comey, Peter Strzok and many other Trump haters; who took their deep visceral hatred of President Trump into their public positions of trust.
The Horowitz Report will only be the beginning. The absolute truth about what really happened will become self-evident upon the completion and release of a special report that is currently being conducted by United States Attorney John Durham.
All will be known by the public long before the American people vote on Tuesday, November 3, 2020.
