    Wow, a proper use of a contraction!
    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        Maybe he tried too hard. In my experience, the best we can do is temper the foolishness a tiny bit and from time to time, introduce some news that would otherwise go unnoticed.
        Thanks for letting me know.
        I actually kinda liked him.

          One point for constructing a grammatically correct sentence without any spelling errors. -100 points for ignoring the source and appealing to the ad hominem fallacy.

              I couldn't figure him out. I mean, he claimed to have a genius level IQ and yet said some of the most irrational stuff that's ever been posted on tWeb. Was he smart but astoundingly naive? Was he really an idiot who lied about his intellectual prowess? Was he deceived? Was he insane? Was he just trolling us and having a laugh? I was never entirely sure.

                I think there was a whole lot of "poking the bear", but, yeah, I quite often couldn't tell if he was 'for real'.

                      Translation: "After years of not being able to get folks to believe my unproven arguments because those who know better or are experts in the fields I arrogantly say I know all about. I'm going to do what I always do when things get to hot for me in the threads and pull a brave sir robin by running away; because I don't want people to see what a close minded anti-intellectual I am."

                      to bad for Starlight his close minded anti intellectualism is here on Tweb for all to see.

                          We haven't seen the Mueller Report, merely the Barr 'spin' on it. Not having evidence "beyond reasonable doubt" is not the same as "not having evidence". Trump and his associated were NOT exonerated and the public needs to see why.

                              And you can bet your bottom dollar that Trumps toadies, Atty Gen. Barr, S. Mnuchin etc etc will do all they think they can get away with to keep that report from going public. Mnuchin is already coming very close to breaking the law (5 year prison sentence) by trying to obstruct Congress from procuring Trumps tax filings from the IRS which he promised to make public during his campaign. And atty Gen Barr, who told Congress at his confirmation hearings that he would be as transparent as possible is doing just the opposite in his attempt to hide the Mueller report from the public.

                                In order to keep this fantasy up you continue to purposefully omit the fact that Rod Rosenstein (the man who tried to get people to wear hidden microphones in order to collect evidence to have Trump impeached) worked alongside of Barr to write the summary. If this was "spin" you can bet he wouldn't be silent and would have immediately disassociated himself from it.

                                Further, Mueller has already shown that when someone misrepresents or fabricates something about his work he will publicly step up and call them out on it (like he did when Buzzfeed falsely claimed that Trump directed his former lawyer Michael Cohen to lie to Congress). He would not be silent if Barr was not portraying things accurately.

                                Learn to deal with it or get ready for yet another major disappointment where you're forced to grasp at even fewer straws in a vain attempt to keep this wild conspiracy theory afloat.

                                Mueller said there was no evidence for collusion. Deal with it. The fat lady has already sang, left the stage and is eating dinner at a restaurant across town.

                                Moreover, an investigative prosecutor like Mueller cannot "exonerate" anyone all he can do is say whether or not there is sufficient evidence to proceed. And he said there wasn't. Deal with it. The fat lady is now finishing desert.
