    1. @SkyGemini you are not credible, Malcolm Nance. is. Malcolm Nance PBS the Muller report unredacted. Go on run along and google it. I will wait.

    2. @SkyGemini you are wrong again…Muller put 44million in cash and property back in the treasury. The investigation did not cost 30 million. Try again…

    3. @SkyGemini so, what you are saying is that the government took stolen money and stole it again to use to pay for the scam Mueller report?

    1. @Freaky Mickey nice job rewording the same reply i just gave you🏆 kind of like the kindergarten copycat game or ‘i know you are but what am i’ game

  1. Barr is right up there with John Mitchell for sleaziness. Trust that history will reflect we were too easy on him.

    1. Except the political rats who fear the base and believe their jobs, power and business dealings will be safe as long as they appease The Base.

    2. Came here to read the comments because I knew somebody would say “rats jumping ship” thanks for being so predictable and not disappointing me.

    1. @billycarson I think his own party will assassinate him….hes a loose canon….it will look like illness or a heart attack….but they will get rid of him…make him a martyr….and attempt to use it to galvanize his voters to back the Republican party again…. the alternative is a factionallized party relegated to a minority….corrupt… irrelevant….and reduced to scrambling for penny back room deals…..lol….I mean…if we are going to go down the rabbit hole….😉😊😄

    2. @Lauren You could be correct but what about his children who have big money connections to Russia also? I was reading that VP Mike Pence will maybe run for President because I believe Trump will be going to jail for most likely the rest of his life If he remains in the USA Outside of White House Power after the November Election is over with by past women who he did enjoy, obstruction of justice through the Mueller Report, City & State of New York Taxes, Debt, etc. But I believe people like VP Mike Pence, Nikki Haley, etc. would even be worse than Trump because they are still supporting him & what he stands for. They should have jumped ship a long time ago. Some conservative Republicans are starting to jump ship right now. But the vast majority of Republicans are still supporting Trump & remember the so called 70+ million voters who voted for him. I hope we do not end up with Civil War before Uncle Joe is in the White House.

    1. @None Given you people are boring as watching paint dry get out of that basement and do something functional with your life ya inbred

    1. He has his own all purpose ‘ pocket pardon ‘ and has enough sense to bail before there is actually blood in the streets.

    1. Mueller didn’t do an investigation of trumps financial records. If he did all roads would’ve led to Duetsche bank and the Russian bank who did the underwriting for trumps loans. The art of the deal has always been Trump making unethical and shady decisions.

  2. Trump: “I never met him. I don’t know what he does. But from what I’ve heard he’s a not so good guy. The DOJ is a mess and he’s a disaster.”

    1. He’s going to jail soon. Trumps letting him have his last Xmas with his family. If I knew he was a Deepstate Rat 4 yrs ago so did Trump. Trump is just letting all these Deepstaters do their dirty work so he can fry them all.

    2. Exactly. One of the first very bad mistakes that basically opened up to all the crap that’s happened since. Someone should have come out and said that was a lie. Wish Mueller did that. Wish Mueller didn’t have the ridiculous circuitous line . . . Well, if we found him innocent, we would have said so . . . Something to that effect. Ridiculous! He should have come straight out and said, T is guilty of these things and we have the proof. Wimps, all of them.
