Mueller Report is out and the fraudian goes into a frenzyArchived Message

Rather than being chastened by spending two years on a wild goose chase with dogs borrowed from Senator McCarthy they decide to try and spin it as if it hadn't actually exposed what a farcial episode the whole thing has been but was rather a massive, crushing blow to Trump.
They have half a dozen articles on this, front and centre, this morning with a big "live reaction" spread but just from their "Guaridan View on.." editorial:
Its length, and the complexity of matters with which it deals, means that it will take time to fully digest the document and understand its ramifications.
= We haven't had time to read it and twist the meaning of the content yet.
The politicians and journalists frenziedly combing through it in Washington have already found plenty of meat. The bar had been set high by the shocking facts that had already emerged about Russia’s role in the 2016 election and the actions of Donald Trump and his campaign.
No examples or references; just "meat" and "shocking facts".
There is no single new killer fact which transforms the picture and is likely to sway a dedicated Trump supporter. But the report is nonetheless damning, and a vital and necessary addition to the body of evidence already amassed.
There is no single new killer fact = there is no evidence but...it's nonetheless damning...and a vital addition to all the evidence already amassed which we er can't quite lay our hands on just at the moment.
That's just from the first paragraph!
Then just look at the mangling of truth going on in the next paragraph:
It details the “sweeping and systematic” Russian interference. It lays out the multiple links between the campaign and those with ties to the Russian state, reminds us that it “expected it would benefit electorally from information stolen and released through Russian efforts”, and was at times receptive to Russian offers of help, even if conspiracy or coordination could not be established. It lists 11 possible instances of obstruction. It states that there was evidence which precluded the investigators from conclusively determining that the president did not commit a crime.
"Sweeping and systematic" Russian interference. I would love to know the exact context of the "sweeping and systematic" quote, but you can bet that it doesn't say anything like what the first line here does.
"It states that there was evidence which precluded the investigators from conclusively determining that the president did not commit a crime."
Wtaf does this sentence even mean? It seems to be a convoluted inversion of "there wasn't enough evidence to conclude a crime had been committed"
The document released on Thursday, however, is not the complete story. It is copiously redacted, often in striking places. There are valid legal reasons to excise material from such a text. But no confidence can be placed in the man overseeing the process, Mr Trump’s hand-picked attorney-general, particularly after his almost comical attempts to misrepresent the document.
The balls on these people to talk about comical misrepresentation. They clearly haven't been chastened one bit by being exposed as having lied for the last two years and they are just going to double down on this bag of shit. Incredible.
