White House counselor Kellyanne Conway on Thursday compared special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation to a “political proctology exam” on President Trump who emerged from the metaphorical procedure unscathed.
Where asked about the “unflattering” aspects of the report that show the President in his most untethered form, Conway was dismissive.
“So? Intent matters and that’s the whole point here. What all these people have had to say over millions of words, thousands of hours on TV, in print, on Twitter, has zero legal significance. What matters is what the Department of Justice of the special counsel concluded here, which is no collusion, no obstruction, and complete exoneration, as the President says. This has been a political proctology exam and he’s merging with a clean bill of health. There’s no other way to look at it.”
