Other views: ‘We still have no evidence of collusion’

-

Matt Margolis, PJ Media:

“I understand the left’s desire to hold onto the fantasy that the Mueller investigat­ion will reveal all the evidence and President Donald Trump will be forced to resign or be impeached and removed from office, but that’s just not going happen. ... It has been two years, and we still have no evidence of collusion, because it didn’t happen.”

Kevin Drum, Mother Jones:

“It’s obvious what Rudy Giuliani has been doing ever since he started representi­ng Trump last year: Tossing out chaff so vigorously that nobody can tell from day to day what the current story is supposed to be. The point of this — and this is the important part — is not just to confuse everyone. It’s to make Giuliani the bearer of bad news so that eventually, when Trump is forced to admit something damaging, it’s ‘old news’ that he’s been ‘saying all along.’ ... It shows a sophistica­ted understand­ing of how the modern media works and how to undermine it.”

Jennifer Rubin, The Washington Post:

“Trump’s chances for a second term are shrinking. ... This is not a prediction that Trump will be impeached and removed or forced to resign. Republican­s remain sheeplike in their devotion. However, it is more likely than at any time in his presidency that he won’t finish or won’t be nominated. And if by some miracle he survives a primary challenge, he’ll reach the general election bruised and battered.”
