12. I don't think we are jumping to conclusions at all

Most of us knew something was wrong with the investigation and Schiff kept trying to tell us and nobody was listening. I always felt something was wrong but now I understand. I never trusted Rosenstein but I did McCabe. What I didn't count on was how deceptive Rosenstein was to McCabe. I wish though Mueller had said as much in plain English when he was before congress. We are not jumping to conclusions, rather learning our unease was well founded.
