There was plenty media hysteria to go around after the release of the Mueller report. NBC News political director Chuck Todd appeared on NBC Nightly News to declare that even though the Mueller report concluded that there was no collusion, nor was there obstruction of justice charges, both things did indeed happen. "Well look, I can tell you this: the headline is not 'no collusion, no exoneration' as the Trump administration and Bill Barr essentially set us up for three and a half weeks," he claimed. "When you read through this report, what you see is Mueller found attempted obstruction and attempted conspiracy." According to Chuck Todd, the only reason the Trump campaign wasn't able to pull off a collusion plot with Russia was that they were too stupid to figure it out, comparing them to the inept Keystone Cops.
