He was telling the truth about what Mueller said, he wasn't giving his own opinion. He also never said he agreed with Mueller's assessment. But I agree that it's pretty stunning to hear someone who works for Fox News use words other than 'exonerated' and 'witch hunt'.
Quote:You are correct about the FBI director job, but the point remains that Mueller was not being special council out of any sort of revenge for not getting a job he did not apply for.
Agreed.

You are missing the point. The mere fact he was basically repeating protocol on that station was giving viewers something different than the lies they are fed most of the time. He was telling the truth. He wasn't disagreeing with Mueller though.
And that clip is consistent with the hundreds of federal prosecutors of both parties whom agree that if it were not for him being in office, it would have gone to a grand jury.
Mueller said himself that if Trump was 100% innocent the report would have said so.
What is disturbing to me, is that his behavior alone, his constant scapegoating and vilification of rivals, races, religions, the press, his own intel, should alone deem him unfit. His actions are counter to the Constitution. But add to it Mueller's report, he is behaving just like mafia boss. I am old enough to remember Gotti vilifying law enforcement and the courts. NYC knows what pile of scum he is. Something will eventually get him when he is out of office, regardless.
And just yesterday he tried to claim the courts could stop impeachment which is bullshit knowing what article 1 says.
Never in my life have I seen a president wipe his ass with the Constitution as much as he has.
