Me too. I think it's in the interest of everyone that as much as can is publicized, taking in mind classified information and other reasons to redact certain things.

I'm doubting the collusion but I do suspect they found something else that's as juicy.

I can't really doubt the collusion at this point, unless he's gonna pull a Reagan and pretend that he was too incompetent and clueless to collude and turn his large adult son into the new Ollie North.

So, there's no more indictments, which means his Don Jr and Kushner escape, for now. But if I recall, indictments and recommendations for impeachment are different since that will be the case for the President.

Mueller is the least of Trump's problems; the Manhattan Investigations are the ones he should be worried about.

Probably not; if Mueller didn't find anything, it's going to make anything Manhattan does look partisan especially given the how SDNY is.

I don't think that's much of an issue considering how comparatively low they fly under the radar.

Some people will call anything that demonstrates Trump wrongdoing partisan. That's how strong their reality distortion field is.

The Manhattan Investigations are looking into financial crimes and whether campaign finance laws were violated. If he's innocent, they'll clear him and his family. If not, you can bet they'll indict him once he leaves office, and or, go after his kids and associates. And I doubt they are partisan, that's mere attempts of undermining the investigation.

He didn't say they're partisan, he said it will look partisan, and he's right. It'll be stupidly easy for Trump to spin any charges by SDNY as nothing more than angry Democrats still trying to get him after their collusion narrative failed.
