MSM Is Talking Collusion/Conspiracy With Respect To The Mueller Report .....

But what happened to the issue of Obstruction of Justice which Trump pretty much committed in the open over the last two years?

Was it so normalized by the MSM that he's going to get away with Obstruction?

All I know is if you listen to the talking heads on the cable news shows - they are all talking about collusion. The Repugs are already saying 'no collusion' Trump is vindicated.

I haven't heard anyone mention 'Obstruction'.

My point about 'normalizing' Trump's behavior over the last two years as he committed obstruction in broad daylight for all of us to see is that we've become immune to it and we let him get away with it. They give Trump a pass by saying 'that's just Trump being Trump'.

I'm hoping Mueller addressed Trump's instances of obstruction in his report because we need to address Trump's obstruction.
