Trump declares victory in the Mueller investigation, but his legal perils are far from over.

President Donald Trump speaks with the media after stepping off Marine One on the South Lawn of the White House, Sunday, March 24, 2019, in Washington. The Justice Department said Sunday that special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation did not find evidence that President Donald Trump's campaign "conspired or coordinated" with Russia to influence the 2016 presidential election.

Federal prosecutors in Manhattan are pursuing at least two known criminal inquiries, one focused into possible corruption in Trump’s inaugural committee and another on the hush-money scandal that led his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, to plead guilty last year to campaign-finance violations. The Justice Department declared Sunday that Mueller’s two-year investigation found no evidence that Trump’s campaign “conspired or coordinated” with Russia to influence the 2016 presidential election, and did not come to a definitive answer on whether Trump obstructed justice.

“If you’ve got Michael Cohen, the president’s former lawyer, as a tour guide, that means you could go anywhere,” former Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey told MSNBC recently. The inquiry into the committee has focused partly on whether donors received “benefits” after making contributions or whether foreign nationals made barred donations, according to a subpoena sent to the committee. The same document shows prosecutors are looking at whether the committee’s vendors were paid with unreported donations.

Does anyone believe this rage? Fake news!

Seriously? Y’all are still doing this?

Trump claims vindication? No the FACTS are the reason. You just can’t hide or lose the bias even after making fools of yourself

Take a breath. When your in a hole, stop digging

AP can’t accept it...

Yeah it's not over. He should sue all of the media.

So he paid hush money to a woman, possibly blurred the lines between his corporation and campaign and he may have exaggerated his income? Campaign finance violation(s)? So basically stuff done by other presidents? Let’s talk healthcare, infrastructure and trade. Enough.

How many more years do you think you need? 10? 20?

Nah, they’re over.

It's okay to admit you were wrong...

Blah blah blah

I love the , 'He Must Be Guilty because I want him to be', mentality!!

Because the Democrats can’t face the truth. Trump won and is the President and will win re-election, with a landslide because the Democrats are stuck on perpetuating a lie.

What’s over are the days of an objective, ethical and trustworthy press.

FakeNews

Give us a rest!

Well—life’s perils are never over. It’s a fact of life.

Did you expect something different?

Make it up as you go along, huh.

and the press continues its beating the dead horse ... over and over and over ... you are beginning to bore us to death! Just stop it!

AP editors, your lives would be enhanced if you were to admit your candidate lost the election, and move on

Nothing compared to the likes of , CNN, MSNBC, NYT, and so on. MAGA GOP

Trump is nothing unless he immediately opens up an investigation committee for Russian Collusion against the Clintons & the Washington Liberals.

Stop the madness AP

Suck It AP!!!

The American people are not going to stand for anymore. POTUS realDonaldTrump is going to pardon General Flynn.

The continuation of looking for crimes before any proof of commitment them is not what the US is about. Everyone should be applaud because if they can to this to him they can do it to anyone. Even if you don’t like him just don’t vote for him .

In the words of the Loser of All Time Hillary Clinton, the Russian Collusion lies were a Nothing Burger.

Trump is the OJ Simpson of the presidents.

Really, this is a rookie performance in this racket, you are gonna have to pump up the fiction!

I think Mueller already did that and was confirmed by Attorney General Barr. How many more times do the loony left get their their asses kicked before they stop this charade?

And? He also 'declared' Mexico would pay for the wall, NK wasn't increasing nukes, Russia didn't meddle in our elections credibilityissue akalies

Give it up

Trump victory means show your taxes innocent Mr man

IanHartley_ He is not off the hook,far from it. Once the full Meuller Report is revealed, New York DA and others are finished with Trump, we will see him in orange overalls.

AP give it up. Trump 2020!!

The House must carry the weight on this because the other 2 branches of government and his administration are all in cohoots to get let this Traitor off the hook. All gor political reasons.Well we will FIX this politically alright. 11/2020 is coming!

You guys just don’t give up..... odd that MSNBC anchor used EXACT SAME VERBIAGE on Trump’s legal peril as the AP story.... Collusion much?

WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THE REPORTS CONCLUSION THAT RUSSIA CAMPAIGNED, ILLEGALLY, FOR THE CURRENT US PRESIDENT!! IF IT WAS 1955, WE'D BE AT WAR!!!!

Barr’s letter has a stench of partisan politics. The only way to get to the truth is to bring Mueller to the house for under oath testimony.

Far from over? Lol

We don't know yet whether Mueller 'found no evidence' of a tacit agreement. We know the investigation 'didn't establish' that, but that might not be the same thing.

Media: yeah, but......

It doesn’t matter, the majority of the left’s eggs were in that basket. They failed, miserably, now every investigation that comes after will be shrugged off as more fake news.

Outrageous! Trump is the most vetted person ever! Liberals need to let it go!

You guys really want another round?

ReleaseTheFullReport

It’s over but thanks for helping Trump secure a 2nd term with your BS.

FAKEAPNEWS

But but but. It’s BUT HURT you are trying to say. It’s ok, we all know it anyway. You can say it.

Collusion Truthers just keep yapping. . . .🙄

AP: 500 years from now, waiting for the next report on Trump 😜😜

Meaning what?

Trump gloating like a wronged choir boy will come back to haunt him. Remember, his national security advisor, campaign chairman, deputy campaign chairman, lawyer, etc. all guilty, his business interests under criminal investigation, SDNY deemed him an unindicted co-conspirator.

if agent orange has a successful bowel movement in the morning he considers himself successful and has won the confrontation with constipation and it was mueller, obama and clinton's fault that he was constipated to begin with.

Let it go- you lost...again

He wld 'declare' victory no matter what it says. I.e. he'd hit a foul ball and declare it's a home run

This POTUS is in peril needs to stop. Now! The4thEstateIsDead

Trump is the NEW 'Teflon Don.'

Any media who was peddling the Russia hoax should not be regarded as news. The viewers who believed the nonsense were tricked by media they trusted. Those that still believe in the Russia hoax probably are flat earthers as well

Winner

Yes they are, all future investigations are tainted by the original witch hunt.

An honest headline would've been : 'Trump cleared from any Russian collusion allegations, and we in the media should apologise for lying to everyone about this since 2016.'

AKA Media won't stop until they *find* something

Too bad the report is a hoax and a witch hunt and can't be trusted, remember Donald?

iTs nOt oVeR...

Even is scrambling to cope

AP, all set to double down on the wrongness... shocker.

yawn noCollusion

Now onto this..... Hey Barry. What exactly where you implying to Medvedev here

The American people have a right to see the FULL Mueller report Then we can judge for ourselves just how much of a criminal Donald Trump is ReleaseTheFullMuellerReport realDonaldTrump TheJusticeDept PressSec GOPLeader senatemajldr

Of course he does... Barr’s summary is NOT the report. It did not exonerate him. There is evidence, just not enough to prosecute. He needs to go.

It's pretty obvious people with Trump derangement syndrome are cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs

Biased news! How about report on your 3 years of lies.

No victory.

Adam Shiff needs to resign. The American public demands it. Americans do not need this biased liar in office let alone the Intel Commitee!!!

Legal perils? Or your continued bullying and harassment? Leave him alone. He is an American citizen and doesn’t deserve this treatment.

As a Democrats I could care less about anybodys policy.... I just want this man gone.. That's the objective.. Trump had no agenda and still won.. who can beat Trump one-on-one that's it....

Haha. 2 years AP. 2 years you've been on the Russia collusion conspiracy theory... Now you wanna move goal posts Just admit you were wrong already and prepare to be sued out of business...

Crybaby democrats in constant denial. Hahahahahahahahahaha!

😎

Sooo, America is now Trump Org? Sounds like that to me... Vote this corrupt man and his family out of office and make Republicans pay a price for their support in Nov 20/20...

Lock him up (and throw away the keys)

Mueller submits report on Trump investigation to AG Barr, no new chargesSpecial Counsel Mueller wrapped up his nearly two-year investigation into Donald Trump and Russia and sent his report to Attorney General Barr. Now do Hillary. 'without any indictments involving Trump and Russia collusion' which was the point of this investigation How can Mueller indict Cohen for lying to Congress, but Don Jr. and Kushner get a pass? The House has said (in so many cryptic words) that both of them lied and they turned their testimony over to Mueller...I don't understand; justice for some, but not for all.

Poll: Majority of Americans say Trump tried to interfere in Mueller investigation, but few likely to change mindFar more voters say they trust Robert Mueller more than President Donald Trump when it comes to potential 2016 Russian interference, but simultaneously, a large majority of Americans say there is zero chance something in the report could change their view of Trump. So what? Because... he told us he did? He fired the Director of the FBI for investigating his connections to Russia. That is a fact from his own mouth. Trump win Democrat lose
