Mueller and the DemSocialists turned logical reasoning on its ear.
It’s not the job of Special Counsel to exonerate. Neither is it the job of Special Counsel to determine innocence or guilt; that’s for the judge and jury. Special Counsel’s job is to investigate and prosecute. Mueller’s report indicates that he wasn’t only the investigator and prosecutor; he was also the judge and jury.
The logical course of events in any investigation is to first, determine if a crime has been committed, and then look for the perpetrator. Mueller did a procedural inversion, defying all logical reasoning; he started with the perpetrator, and then searched for a crime. He painted himself into a corner. He was unable to find a crime, even though he knew the name of the perpetrator who would have committed the crime, had there been a crime; nonetheless he was stuck with an inadvertent purposeless perpetrator. He said, “If we had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so.” I guess the converse could be said, as well, but it’s a benign statement since it’s impossible to prove a negative. That was just plain dumb.
What’s a prosecutor to do when he has a perpetrator but no crime? It’s time to mutter a bunch of mumbo jumbo and pass the buck.
