People want a magic bullet in the form of Mueller, but Trump will not be leaving until defeated, or until the end of his second term.

But WTF did the Democrats set it up like the Mueller Report was the end all be all for the last two years? If nothing comes out of this, this will go over like a lead balloon.

have been trying to lower expectations on the report, honestly. It’s the breathless Twitterverse with endless speculation about six thousand sealed indictments and Trump in chains that got some folks worked up over nothing.

In the last month after hyping expectations for two years, doesn't work. This is end badly if there is no meat in this report and spinning will NOT help one bit.

People with a political axe to grind, taking short-term potshots the Administration as politicians are wont to do?

We can't count on the republicans to do anything so impeachment was always fairly close to being a non starter. Even if we got a majority in the senate it would have been an uphill slog. On top of that we now know that republican voters are willing to swallow anything to stay on course with their narrative of fear, loathing and hate.

The report probably contains things that would sink anybody, and I do mean anybody, if we had reasonable, rational, human beings on the other side of the aisle. Sadly, as they have conclusively proven, we don't.

All we can do is keep taking it to them at the polls. Keep pressing and not give up. Fight against this insanity tooth and nail like we have been doing. Stay in the ears of everybody we know about how they are being fucked.
