The special counsel’s office’s 448-page report on Russian interference in the 2016 election and the Trump campaign and administration’s response to it. But the second volume, which lays out moments when Trump arguably obstructed justice during the investigation, reveals an incredible moment that occurred after Trump learned that Robert Mueller had been appointed as special counsel
Trump first reaction when he found out he was going to be investigated by the special counsel was a little suspect. According to notes by Jody Hunt, the former Attorney General Jeff Sessions’s chief of staff. Trump said, “Oh my God. This is terrible. This is the end of my Presidency. I’m fucked.”
Trump responded to the Mueller report on Twitter:
Anything the Russians did concerning the 2016 Election was done while Obama was President. He was told about it and did nothing! Most importantly, the vote was not affected.

When there is not an underlying crime with regard to Collusion (in fact, the whole thing was a made up fraud), it is difficult to say that someone is obstructing something. There was no underlying crime.” @marthamaccallum @FoxNews

“If dozens of Federal prosecutors spent two years trying to charge you with a crime, and found they couldn’t, it would mean there wasn’t any evidence you did it – and that’s what happened here – that’s what we just learned from the Mueller Report.” @TuckerCarlson

“The Mueller Report is perhaps the single most humiliating thing that has ever happened to the White House Press in the history of this Country. They know they lied…Many reporters lied about Russia Collusion and so much more. Clapper & Brennan, all lies” @TuckerCarlson

DO YOU THINK TRUMP SHOULD BE IMPEACHED?
