The Mueller Report pretty much laid out a case against Trump but concluded it had no authority to indict. Oh, and that recession talk was coming from Trump’s own Fed. Dems haven’t had to say anything for it all to come out. So it looks like it’s BOTH collaboration with a foreign power to influence the election AND an utterly predictable race toward recession based on disastrous policy.
I think Gorrell forgot about the cartoon he did yesterday, or at least he’s trying to pretend an impending recession isn’t Trump’s fault. Anyone still think Gorrell is finally acting like a human being? Finally standing up to Trump? Nope he’s back to attempting to further the idea that the president is being unfairly attacked by democrats. Tomorrow he’ll probably do a cartoon about how scary socialism is.
Everyone else has already pointed out that the term “collusion” has no specific legal meaning in criminal law, and if not for the OLC opinion, Trump would be charged with crimes for obstruction(and could be after he leaves office).
and because Pelosi hasn’t moved forward with impeachment yet, Gorrell and the GOP are going to say that means he’s innocent of crimes.
collusion aside Trump should be impeached for numerous other things (emoluments, corruption, inciting violence) but most of all for the concentration camps on American soil. These concentration camps are bad enough for the adults, but separated children are being physically and emotionally tortured and being scarred for life. the 3rd panel should read “CONCENTRATION CAMPS! CONCENTRATION CAMPS! CONCENTRATION CAMPS!”
If you still support Trump at this point, you are okay with the concentration camps.
So I see Gorrell has drunk the Kool-Aid. There WAS corruption. Mueller WOULD have indicted Trump, had he been permitted to do so. Falling in line with the lies and falsehoods of this administration merely shows how poor Gorrell has become as an editorial cartoonist.
I agree the democrats have switched their primary narrative from Trump’s illegal activities to economy (such is politics), but “Mueller Report Finds No Collusion” is a deliberate lie or Gorrell is woefully ignorant of the facts…which is it?
Trumpers refuse to read the report and/or to watch the hearings. Like ostriches sticking their heads in the sand.* Ignorance is bliss.True Believer by Eric Hoffer.

Gotta love Gorrell for giving this tired old idea another shot: That’s his job and by god, when he’s ordered to spew it, he’s going to spew it to the best of his ability. And of course I endorse the copy-paste of the donkey: Even cartoonists should work smarter, not harder.
“Collusion” isn’t a crime. A conspiracy to commit a crime is itself a crime, though. Such as the (probable) conspiracy (plural?) between The Twit and Barr, or between the Russians and members of the Twit’s family.
So yes, Mueller did not report collusion. However he did report several instances of probable conspiracies to commit various federal crimes.
It’s what happens when you run up giant deficits. We’ve been down this road before.
You can look very rich if you write tons of bad checks. But it only works for a very short time. Then, boom.
Add to that dissing America’s trading partners, giving the farmers nobody to buy their products, and trying to redo the Smoot-Hawley Act because it was such a good idea the first time.
Donald Trump inherited about 200 million bucks and went bankrupt. Business after business after business failed.
But his business model was simply borrowing tons of money and not paying it back. You can’t do that if you’re a Government. It doesn’t work.

Remember when the GOP wouldn’t shut up about Obama’s record deficit increase?
Remember when they did the same when Trump started closing in on Obama’s gross increase and GW Bush’s net increase? Me neither.
