Dems should avoid turning the "full report" into the "long-form birth certificate" [View all] Azathoth Mar 2019 OP

Nope, the Mueller investigation report is real. Iliyah Mar 2019 #1

Fuck that. W_HAMILTON Mar 2019 #2

So not the same thing. nt UniteFightBack Mar 2019 #3

Why not? Azathoth Mar 2019 #4

We haven't even seen the report. It's been an hour since the letter. Please don't compare us to UniteFightBack Mar 2019 #5

I didn't say it was at birther levels, I said we shouldn't let it get there Azathoth Mar 2019 #7

Basically agree. I think we need to keep working on this matter, but focus mostly on why trump, Hoyt Mar 2019 #6

Excuse me. Are you comparing requesting the full report the same thing as the Obama birth still_one Mar 2019 #8

So just take bars word for it? uponit7771 Mar 2019 #9

No, get the report, but keep expectations low Azathoth Mar 2019 #10

Hmmmm, I'm thinking liken Red Don's administrations unwillingness to turn over the full report to uponit7771 Mar 2019 #18

Only works if they never release the report Azathoth Mar 2019 #19

You're comparing this to the racist birther bullshit? cynatnite Mar 2019 #11

You mean, the long-form birth certificate controversy that Trump himself caused? jmowreader Mar 2019 #12

Yes, and which ended his 2012 candidacy when it was made public Azathoth Mar 2019 #13

Are you kidding me? rusty fender Mar 2019 #14

Huh? Azathoth Mar 2019 #15

Right. They demanded to see the certificate and got it... regnaD kciN Mar 2019 #28

It would have gradually hurt Obama at the margins, but not ended him Azathoth Mar 2019 #30

Huh? malaise Mar 2019 #16

And maybe the report really does back up everything Barr says nt Azathoth Mar 2019 #17

And maybe there are sparkly pink unicorns living in the White House. pnwmom Mar 2019 #22

lol, link? Azathoth Mar 2019 #23

The Barr letter itself, without even a paragraph from the actual Mueller report -- pnwmom Mar 2019 #25

I understand, while also understanding the OP's point ... we put our eggs in one basket once, so to mr_lebowski Mar 2019 #31

It's not clear how much Mueller even investigated the "oligarch" angle Azathoth Mar 2019 #33

I'd say, knowing what's already in the public record... regnaD kciN Mar 2019 #29

I agree Puzzledtraveller Mar 2019 #20

There's no way the full report doesn't contain a great deal of information that needs pnwmom Mar 2019 #21

It's going to come out one way or the other Azathoth Mar 2019 #24

That's fine. And that's why Nancy has never been pushing for impeachment hearings. pnwmom Mar 2019 #26

I give Pelosi credit, and I say that as someone who was very critical Azathoth Mar 2019 #34

Can't begin to tell you how much I disagree with the OP EricMaundry Mar 2019 #27

Trump is Putin's puppet, radius777 Mar 2019 #32
