5:21Now PlayingAccording to a new report from The Washington Post, Donald Trump’s “inner circle” in Washington, D.C. is very concerned that the release of the Mueller report is going to seriously damage Donald Trump, at least politically if not criminally. While most of us are hoping that the report is going to remove Trump from office, the truth is that we may not get any evidence that could lead to his removal, and then each of us are only left with our own confirmation bias and nobody’s minds will change. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins explains what’s happening with Trump’s inner circle and why we need to curtail our expectations for the Mueller report.

So I know right now everybody's sitting on pins and needles after we got the news that the Mueller report might wrap up next week, might even be released next week. Who knows? But what we do know is that the people that have been working on the Muller, a, a special prosecutors team, they're starting to go back to their old jobs there. They're leaving because they personally are finished. And reports suggest that because these people are finished, it means the whole thing is wrapping up. Could be ready next week and we could be good to go and move on from there. Um, and as such, has these reports come out a source close to the president told the Washington Post that there is palpable concern among don or Donald Trump's inner circle, that this report is going to be very damaging to him politically, but not criminally politically. It's going to be bad, but it's not going to result in the president getting indicted or going to jail or getting removed from office.
That is the optimism that this inner circle has. And the reason I did the little air quotes around source close to the president talking to the Washington Post is because that's how the Washington Post put it. But we've seen in the past that Kellyanne Conway is typically the person who speaks anonymously to the press and she has a pin Sean for doing it with the Washington Post. So I wouldn't put it past Kellyanne Conway to be the one who said yes, we're concerned it's going to hurt him politically, but he's not going to jail for any of the crap that you know people think he is or think he's done. Now here's the thing, I, I don't disagree with that. I don't, and that may come as a shock, but I don't know that there's going to be anything from this Muller report that is going to result in Donald Trump either being impeached and removed from office or hauled away in handcuffs.
