Watched about an hour before I needed to get some yard work done, DVR'd to review later. What I saw was a calm methodical questioning by the democrats, getting Mueller to confirm the key points in the report. What I saw from the republican's was anger, frustration and a futile attempt to lead Mueller where he wasn't going to go or couldn't as it was outside the boundries of the report. I'm certain the right on this board will call it a success, but unless I see anything different than I already have, I think it's a success for the democrats in getting exactly what they could out of Mueller.

The only way this is a success for the democrats is if impeachment precedings follow this up, otherwise its a win for Trump.

Really, let me suggest another way they win. Enough of the public watched, believe as I do if he were not the sitting president he would have been indicted, he is voted out of office and then charged for obstruction of justice. That to me would be the ultimate win for the American people and justice. But I know, best president of our life time, 27,000 yada yada yada.

The people who have watched, already had their minds made up before this even started, nothing has changed anybody's minds. The whole reason they are doing this today is to find something to impeach him on. Thats It. If they don't find anything, it will be back to business as usual tomorrow. Trump will be touring the country saying "See, I'm still here, they had nothing"

But I get it Russian Collusion, Islahomoraciphobic, Orange man bad, yada yada yada

A summary of the Mueller Report, told in 2 yesses:

Vol. 1:

SCHIFF: “Trump & his campaign welcomed & encouraged Russian interference?”

MUELLER: “Yes.”

Vol. 1 into 2:

SCHIFF: “And then Trump & his campaign lied about it to cover it up?”

MUELLER: “Yes.”

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
