(11,742 posts)The problem was with people thinking that it was going to be an open and shut case, that the power structures of the government were going to just allow someone to take down the president, and that Mueller was the only one who could "save us".
That is actually the problem with American politics and society in general. Like waiting for the next diet, or pill, or machine that is going to help us loose weigh with minimal effort. We wait for someone to save us, Mueller, Avenatti, Pelosi, Bernie, etc... instead of getting active.
Moore in my opinion is not being helpful with his "I told ya so".

(55,445 posts)14-16 years ago, I was by far the biggest Moore fan and defender on this forum, and now I'm muting and blocking his ass on Twitter. He's now dead to me...

(55,445 posts)I really hope me fellow DUers are taking a watchful eye on which "liberal" thought leaders are still smearing shit over anything that has to do with the #Resistance while once again giving Trump a pass...
These people played a huge role in handing 2016 to Trump and they have every intention of doing it again in 2020 if we aren't vigilant... Ignore this warning at your own peril...
