I hope you re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. the mueller report says, by the way, that within approximately five hours of trump s statement, gru officers targeted clinton s personal office for the first time. did russia take this as a joke? well, that s i mean, a and b. there you have it. in terms of president trump getting up there and making those words, and as you said, the gru acting five hours later. but this is one of the fundamental challenges in the mueller report is that he lays out dots but he doesn t necessarily connect them. the scrupulousness around that is what it is. he leaves it for the american voters, the american people to decide. i will say there was one important point in that with hope hicks testimony where she talked about intent. she used the word intent, and she said she thought it was the intent of president trump to be making a joke there. i think sort of over and over again, in the questions that she did answer, she was trying to get at this idea that, you know,
