Here's why I think Trump was willing to release the "transcript " [View all]

I have little doubt that Trump directly colluded with Russia in the 2016 election , and probably did it in much the same way as he's now dealing with Ukraine. Mueller didn't exonerate him of such behavior, but only reported that he couldn't come up with sufficient evidence to prove collusion.

Trump's too stupid to understand the distinction and may think that Muller gave him a free pass to continue that behavior, so he thinks it's perfectly fine to continue doing it in plain sight.
