The Mueller investigation into collusion by President Trump during the 2016 presidential election with the Russians is finally over after almost 2 years. Obstruction of justice in the firing of FBI Director Comes was really never as serious an issue as the MSM made out as the President has the right to hire and fire anyone within the executive branch of government for any or no reason at all. There is little to show for it as far as President Trump is concerned. Mueller said that no future indictments by him are forthcoming. We did learn that the Russians did play a part by buying space on social media for both candidates and tried to divide the American people by organizing demonstrations for both sides, even at the same time. A number of Russians were indicted, but they will never set foot in an American courtroom.
Several people very close to the president were indicted in an attempt to gain leverage for charges against the President, but no one could say anything to save himself that could be verified from other sources. Both Michael Cohen, President Trump's personal attorney, and Paul Manafort, a campaign manager during the election campaign, were indicted and convicted or pled guilty to numerous charges, non related to Russia collusion and will spend time in prison. Process crimes were claimed for George Papodoupolus and Gen. Michael Flynn for leverage purposes, and very short sentences of 14 days was meted out to the former. Flynn who apparently cooperated with Mueller's investigation is still awaiting sentencing for lying to the FBI.
Some material was turned over to very liberal, anti Trump, prosecutors for the Southern District of New York and it may still do some investigating into other campaign irregularities, but similar violations by other candidates in previous elections have either been dropped, ignored, or treated with a fine.
For two years, the MSM continued to talk about Russia, until recently as it was quickly becoming apparent that no collusion or obstruction existed and now that Mueller's investigation is complete and no high crimes and misdemeanors by our President have been found. Nothing to impeach him has been found to exist so they ware weeping like little babies as they did on election night when it became obvious that Donald Trump had defeated Hillary Clinton and was to become our next POTUS. CNN has patted themselves on the back for their biased and fake coverage. CNN is becoming more and more significant as a news source everyday.
So what's next. Both Adam Shiff, Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and Jerry Nadler, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, want to carry out their own investigations. Nadler has already sent out 81 subpoenas and Shiff wants to subpoena Mueller himself, claiming that Mueller is hiding evidence. Shiff has been stating for the past two years that he has evidence of collusion, but has yet to produce one shred. Now his removal as head of the Intelligence Committee has become an issue as he has lied continuously to the American public. Most Americans will look at this in a very negative way in the wake of Mueller investigation, knowing that these two are wasting time and money and it is time to move on and do something productive for the people of the United States, who they are supposed to represent. Those far left crackpots like Maxine Waters and her ilk, who have been screaming to impeach the president, even look more like crazy people shouting at the moon. Speaker Pelosi should rein them in, if she can, as they will only be perceived as a negative come the 2020 elections, especially by moderates and independents.
On other factor may comes into play. The Mueller investigation has managed to divert and delay what may be the real crimes of the 2016 election campaign, namely those committed by the Clinton Campaign, Clinton Foundation, and high ranking Justice, FBI, and official in the Obama Administration, including President Obama himself. The Steele Dossier has served as the basis for this investigation and despite it not being verifiable was used in obtaining FISA warrants to wiretap and unmask American citizens at an alarming rate. A number of high ranking members of the FBI have already been singled outs as potential targets for indictments and this could extend to the DOJ, some Obama administration officials, and even Obama himself. The plot to overthrow a sitting American President may have serious consequences, as this is certainly considered treason. It is up to the newly appointed Attorney General William Barr on whether to proceed, possibly appointing a new special consul to look into this can of worms.
In the end, President was correct. His campaign was indeed spied upon by the Obama administration.
