In reply to the discussion: For those arguing against impeachment [View all]Qutzupalotl
(14,286 posts)9. He's going to declare exoneration either way.
Look at what he and Barr did with the Mueller report, which shows multiple examples of impeachable conduct and abuse of power. Hes willing to flat-out lie about whats in the report to try to save his political hide, the way he lies about everything else.
He can declare exoneration, but that doesnt mean most people believe him. Most people believe Mueller, especially as people are wading through the report and seeing the damning information for themselves. Trump has never been above 50% approval. So him claiming exoneration which he does constantly does not mean he will be reelected.

I am educated as are most of the DUers here. TV talking heads are not super authorities.

Trump's investigations of the investigators will get off the ground before the House investigations.

I didn't mean to get "snitty" in some of my replies (probably what Barr would say . . .)
