Let The Downplaying Begin

In the aftermath of the Mueller Report being made public, all that palaver from the Democrats/media about how AG Barr was distorting it or improperly summarizing it has ended.  The Attorney General's letter has now been shown to be completely accurate.  There's been a flurry of left wing types cheering about how Mueller listed ten instances of possible obstruction of justice, but it's hard to get too excited about that since Mueller said there wasn't enough evidence to show that obstruction and both Barr and Rosenstein have concluded that there was none.  So what's left for the left?

Here's the answer:  the left is now telling us that the Mueller Report really isn't that important and the whole investigation won't have much impact for 2020.  You may want to read that again, since it is as if the last two and a half years didn't happen.  Here's how lefty Matt Bai put it in a column today:

"What the report won’t do, I’m betting, is have much impact, one way or the other, on the 2020 presidential campaign. Most Americans seem to have decided already whether they think Donald Trump is culpable in foreign subterfuge or the victim of what he calls a “witch hunt” (or maybe both), so nothing in Mueller’s report is likely to change the basic contours of a general election."

I wouldn't believe this if I didn't see it.  The same people who went on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on about Trump Russia collusion and nothing else for literally years are now telling America it didn't really matter.

It's hard to imagine that anyone could think that this position will fly with the ordinary American.
