The best "spin" for the Democrats.

We were relieved to hear that Mr Mueller did not find any evidence of collusion with the Russians. We sincerely hope that is the case.

For the benefit of the people, we will continue to demand to see the entire Mueller report so we can fulfil our responsibility of oversight.

In the meantime, we will be putting forth more legislation to help the American people.

We will continue to protect the rule of law and provide oversight of the Executive Branch.

The Russians interfered with our elections and we had no choice but to get to the bottom of it. We are still working on it and would like the help of the President in protecting our democracy. We would like for him to act more presidential and work to unite our country, rather than dividing us.

We are very happy to hear there was no collusion. But we must remain vigilant that it doesn't happen again in 2020 .

told us - correct?

It could be that there was collusion but not with the "Russian Government", there could be collusion but not criminal according to current law.

What we know they did that is in public record is not okay and shouldn't be swept under the rug. It was unethical and unpatriotic even if it wasn't found to be criminal beyond a reasonable doubt. IMO, Dems should continue to demand the full report, interview Mueller and then decide what the party statement should be. I don't think it offers any benefit to our society to pretend like there weren't unethical and unpatriotic actions taken by Trump, his campaign or his administration when they did indeed commit such acts. The bar is being lowered so much in so many areas. Can't we at least demand integrity?
