First things first: Don’t miss the STUPIDEST WORDS EVER SPOKEN.
Onward:
Though their far side of the aisle opposes the foundation of his overarching message to the world, in light of no evidence of Russian collusion, many Democrats are no doubt simmering on the title of Martin Luther King’s August 1967 speech: “Where Do We Go From Here?”
In my view, a reasonable response to the Mueller probe findings would just be, “Oh.”
Then life would move on in the light of reality — Trump won the election fair and square.
But something tells me that won’t happen, and this and this don’t work toward changin’ my mind.
So where do they go? For some in Hollywood, they go to Twitter. And for some on Twitter, they go to refusal.
Let’s start with my personal heartbreak — the once outwardly-kind, now somewhat belligerent Alyssa Milano (here, here, here, and here):
“Well, if there was nothing in the report why won’t they just release it? If the report fully exonerated him or his family, he’d have it all out in seconds. Wouldn’t he?”

I’ll answer her question: No.
Next up, we have Saving Private Ryan actor, Adam Goldberg, questioning Trump:
You gleaned this from a report based on an investigation you deemed a sham and which clearly states it does not exonerate you?

Two and a Half Men’s Jon Cryer (who, it should also be mentioned, played Duckie in the seminal Pretty in Pink) suggested Attorney General Bill Barr is scamming to protect a guilty Donald:
This is why Trump appointed Barr. https://t.co/Vj2kjVFOnC

Comedy’s ideological contradiction, socialist-worth-$150-million Jim Carrey (here), offered some non-believin’ in the form of a painting:
The Mueller report is out! The question now is…how low will this Barr go? pic.twitter.com/IveGZzlcRo

Actor John Leguizamo’s conclusion? Russia collusion is a fact:
#trumpColluded beyond a doubt! Now America must confront itself about its own moral Boundaries and code of ethics! Turning point in American history! Are we a rule of law country or are we a lawless lie! https://t.co/VBhbE3FisP

Rosie O’Donnel doesn’t care about the summary of the report; she only cares about the report.
the summary is irrelevant – only the full report matters #ReleaseTheEntireReport

John Cusack’s of a like mind:
Mr Nichols RT @NicholsUprising: We’ve gotten a little bit of the #MuellersReport but not enough.
Four pages of rumination by Trump appointee Bob Barr is insufficient.
It is essential that the Department of Justice #ReleaseTheFullReport.https://t.co/Dca8GCrQwc

FLOT*TS tweeter Bette Midler (here), as well as the great Don Cheadle, is taking no dubious position:
#MuellersReport finds no evidence showing #TrumpsTeam of "collusion" with Russia, but stops short of "exonerating" Trump on obstruction of justice. Knowing Trump, he probably tried to do exactly that. TWO MORE YEARS OF CHAOS, RACE BAITING, GRIFTERS, CON ARTISTS, SHAME/FEAR. SAD.

Last but not least, George Takei — who I very much like — had an eyebrow-raising take on the AG’s assessment:
If William Barr summarized Romeo and Juliet, he’d probably say that Romeo murdered Juliet’s cousin, was banished for it, and is now dead. Let’s wait to hear the full story.

So there ya go. It appears some of Hollywood’s political minds aren’t open to changing.
Trump bad. Democrats good.
It strikes me as bit of partisanship, and it’s their right to have it.
A whole lot of Republicans have it, too.
The report — upon its full release — is unlikely to alter the beliefs of those who were hell-bent on Hillary.
A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still.
And some in Hollywood — as in America — will keep believin’ Trump ain’t right.
