Mueller has diddly poo and we know that because President Trump is still President Trump. The story is "Donald Trump asked Russia to help with information on/from Hillary and the Democrats" and why do we know that's a bunch of bullshit? Well the 33,000 emails HRC deleted/used bleach bit on are still missing and if Russia had been listening and/or in cahoots with Trump or WikiLeaks then THOSE emails would have shown up at some point. Secondly there's good old Vault 7 from the CIA which got leaked out and showed that indeed a hacking could take place (or faked) and made to seem as though a foreign actor had done the dirty deed. What could set the record straight on that? The servers themselves or Julian Assange.

It's quite possible for even complete scumbags, which Romney is not, to do something good at some point in their lives and there's no contradiction or incongruity in pointing out when somebody does something good.
It was mocked because the corporate newsmedia has a double standard for politicians. They only care for THEIR candidate and it is a disservice to our political system. Your praise for Romney rings hollow.

Mueller charged twenty five Russians with a variety of charges stemming from them hacking the DNC computer system. He wasn't able to charge Trump with anything due to various Trump underlings refusing to cooperate with the investigation, destroying evidence, taking the fifth and various other tactics.


Romney was mocked because he said something mockable. He did something unique the other day, or at least unique compared to the rest of the Republican Senate and House representatives, that I think is noteworthy. Romney may have been an outright crook or otherwise bad person previous to this event, and he wasn't, and it would still be worth mentioning the noble thing that he did even if just to contrast it with the rest of the GOP national representatives.
