Shameful Post-Mueller Report Inaction

So the Mueller Report clears Trump of Collusion, and can’t make out an Obstruction charge. Do we owe the man an apology? I think not.

Trump is spending his time crowing about his apparent exoneration. He is threatening to go after those who had to audacity to do their jobs. He is acting like a complete ass.

The Mueller Report also confirmed that the Russians tried to pervert American democracy by impacting a US presidential election. Both Republicans and Democrats accept this essential reality.

But what of Trump? How does he suggest Russia be punished for this? 

Has he suggested kicking out Russian embassy staffers, and pulling Americans embassy staff out of Russia? 

How about banning certain Russians from the USA? 

Will he apply even more sanctions and threaten more severe responses if they ever try this again?

From Trump we have heard nothing whatsoever regarding his obligation to uphold and protect the Constitution of the United States of America – the foundation of American democracy and liberty – in the face of a clear and present danger to that liberty and democracy.

Is he the President of the United States, or the President of Donald Trump?

His post-report conduct belies his true loyalty to Putin, who appears to be his closest confidant regarding all things Russian. 

His failure to take action, or to even acknowledge the problem with Russian interference in US democracy, may be the clearest indicator yet that he is likely deeply compromised.



This isn’t over.
