A few days ago, Republican Congressman Justin Amash, uh, tweeted out in a series of tweets that he believes Donald Trump committed impeachable offenses. Also in those tweets, he said that the Mueller report, having read the full thing, uh, congressman Amash, again, a Republican admitted he read the whole thing and one determined yet Trump committed impeachable offenses. But he also said number two, that it established a pattern of behavior of potentially illegal criminal behavior for Donald Trump. And any good prosecutor in this country is going to tell you that the first thing you have to do and trying to prosecute somebody is establish a pattern of behavior saying that this is who this person is and that's why they likely committed this crime we're talking about today. Amash says that, yeah, it established that he also went on and as a Twitter feed to say that Attorney General William Barr misled the public about what's actually in that report.
And those are pretty strong words. And especially considering the fact that they're coming from a Republican member of the US House of Representatives, not exactly something we would expect to see. Certainly not something that Donald Trump was expecting to see. And that is why a few days after this happened, he took to Twitter on Sunday. Any tweet it out, the following about Congressman Amash, never a fan of Justin Amash, a total lightweight who opposes me in some of our great republican ideas and policies just for the sake of getting his name out there through controversy. If he actually read the bias Mueller report composed by 18 angry Dems who hated Trump, he would see that it was nevertheless strong on no collusion and ultimately no obstruction. Anyway. How do you obstruct when there is no crime? And in fact, the crimes were committed by the other side. Justin is a loser who sadly plays right into our opponent's hands.
