After months as volunteer activists demanding that U.S. President Donald Trump be impeached, Eileen and Michael O¡¯Brien sat on their couch on Thursday, cracked open a laptop and began to read the 448-page special counsel report that liberals have dreamed would make impeachment a reality.

¡°Hmm, seems like there¡¯s a lot of gray area here,¡± said Eileen O¡¯Brien, 65, of Clearwater, Florida, reading aloud a line about the findings falling short of a criminal case. ¡°Legally wrong and morally wrong are two different things.¡±

The release of the long-anticipated report by special counsel Robert Mueller on his inquiry into Russia¡¯s role in the 2016 election landed in a stridently divided America: one side convinced Trump acted improperly, the other adamant that the investigation was a politically driven farce.
