That he is "naive"?
That he is "unconventional"?
That he permitted himself to be used by people that did not have the best interests of our nation at heart?
That he was lonely and was only looking to make friends with Putin and Kim?
That he was not really "obstructing" the investigation but felt he was just "fighting back" against unjust charges?
That he looked at negotiations between nations as just another "business deal"?
That he wasn't really serious when he tried to get Mueller fired?
What is the best thing he can say about Trump?

(52,227 posts)even if the report says there's compelling evidence that he did all kinds of horrible stuff, if there's no indictment, and especially if it explicitly says there's not enough for a winnable criminal case, then he'll say, "see, i told you it was all a witch hunt!"
and the media will very likely eat it up and hail donnie for surviving a difficult scandal.
of course, then there will be house investigations, sdny, dc, etc., but that's another story for another day....

That's the ONLY 'best' that Trump can hope for, that Mueller decides NOT to challenge that 'conventional, if as yet untested in Court, wisdom'.
Trump is fucked. I suspect Mueller is taking the time to triple-check the knots in the noose. Even if all this is, is him prepping the rope, it's so that when he gives all this to Congress to kick out the chair, that noose WILL HOLD.

(6,377 posts)People like Manafort, Flynn, etc attempted to make deals with Russia, but he was completely unaware of it as were Trump Jr, Kushner, and other high ups.
I doubt it says that, but thats probably best case scenario for him.

It's difficult to argue that horseshit smells like a hot chocolate cake fresh out of the oven...
