If Mueller fails to produce evidence that President Trump colluded with Russia to win the election, Democrats will say that the report “did not draw a conclusion.†By doing so, the suspicion which has surrounded the President for nearly three years will linger. Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper is already setting the stage for this outcome.
The Hill’s Tal Axelrod writes, “former Acting FBI DirectorAndrew McCabe on Friday made the startling claim that he believes it’s possible Trump is a Russian asset.†First, coming from McCabe, it’s not startling. Not even a little bit. Second, he’s telling us what McCabe, a four-time liar who was fired from the FBI due to his lack of candor, believes or would like us to believe.
Three, his noncommittal “it’s possible†makes his statement meaningless. It’s possible that anyone could be a Russian asset. McCabe provides no evidence.
