Matthews Leads Motley Crew Defending Trump Campaign Spying, Insists Mueller Found Collusion
By Curtis Houck | April 11, 2019 1:02 AM EDT

In the first 15 minutes of Wednesday’s Hardball, MSNBC pundit Chris Matthews and an assembled crew of cringeworthy guests to defend the Obama administration’s surveillance of the Trump campaign under the guise of alleged Russian collusion (built in part on some dubious beginnings) while decrying the use of the word “spying.”

And for good measure, guests (separately) asserted that collusion still occurred even if nothing was criminal and Attorney General Bill Barr doesn’t deserve to be referred to as attorney general because he’s already decided to ignore disregard America’s commitment to the rule of law.

Matthews led off the show by comparing the Mueller report’s impact on the Trump presidency to someone being hung (which harkened back to when Matthews joked the President would murder son-in-law Jared Kushner):

You know what these democrat talking heads are so afraid of, if Barr finds they were colluding with democrats on their stories Trump will become much, much wealthier ala the Washington Post being sued for $250 million for false reporting.

I believe they'll find Bigfoot or the Loch Ness monster before they'll find evidence of collusion between Trump and Putin.
The whole thing was ludicrous from the start.
For one thing, the Dems never presented any theory as to how the pre-president Trump could possibly have managed to fix voting machines or plant enough  anti-Hillary e-mails that were seen by enough voters to sway an election.
The possibility that many midwest voters simply didn't like Clinton never seems to have occurred to them.
So they keep chasing their tails, hoping that if they dig deep enough into their  sandbox they'll strike oil.
