March 20, 2019: Explaining Obstruction of Justice to President Trump and His Fans

 

3/20/19: Reporters catch the president for a moment and ask if he thinks the Mueller report will be coming out anytime soon. 

Trump says he has no idea when it might be coming out; but he’s not worried. “Let it come out, let people see it,” he says. “Let’s see whether or not it’s legit.”

All six lied about contacts with Russians.

Trump doesn’t know what’s in the report; but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have his mind made up. It’s all so unfair! Here he won the election in 2016. And in early 2017 stories begin to swirl – that the Russians may have helped his cause. “I just won one of the greatest elections of all time in the history of this country,” he grumbles, looking back. “And now I have somebody writing a report that never got a vote? It’s called the Mueller report. So explain that because my voters don’t get it. And I don’t get it.” 

Okay, me, me, me! Let the blogger give it a try: 

We know representatives of your campaign had dozens of secret contacts with Russians once you decided to run – and even after you won. Many of these contacts have been admitted, usually under legal duress. By now, six aides have been convicted of felonies and all six lied about contacts with Russians. 

Frankly, sir, if your fans don’t get it, and you don’t get it, I must assume you and they don’t want to get it. Because if you do and they do, then everyone in American will realize you colluded – that is, conspired – with Russia. 

Then you obstructed justice. 

Okay, that was easy.
