The following is an excerpt from the Saturday 3/23/2019 airing of msnbc's AM Joy in which host Joy Reid asks contributor Malcolm Nance a vital question regarding the recently completed (Friday 3/22/2019) report concerning the Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections from Special Council Robert Mueller.
Joy Reid: ...whether or not the president of the United States used help from a hostile foreign power to gain access to the White House, and whether that assecuture continues. Do you have confidence that Robert Mueller will tell us the answer to that, at least from the view of the Justice Department?
Malcolm Nance: Yes. I have great confidence that he's going to tell us that. I think he only has two options as to what he can tell us. Because there is an enormous amount of evidence that is already out there. He can tell us that [tRump] was either a handled Russian asset who had worked and willingly coordinated and conspired with Russia. Or that (what many other people suspect) [tRump] is a dupe. And that he foolishly found his way into this; stumbled through it; and did not really intend to do it, but used what he found to get himself elected president. That's it. Those are the only two options. Both of those are a betrayal of the public trust.

David Corn: ...it's not just the crime. We already know the scandal. There's a scandal without crimes. It's what Malcolm has been talking about. It's betrayal ... whether [tRump] was an asset or not, he aided and abetted the attack. Whether he colluded or not, he helped the attack succeed.
