Fox News host Shep Smith told Fox News viewers to read the Mueller report in full, and they responded by losing their minds over being told to read.
Smith said, “Remember, in his 400-plus page report that everyone in America should read, everyone, Robert Mueller laid out 10 instances of apparent obstruction of justice, criminal obstruction of justice, potentially, by President Trump. The special counsel did not exonerate the president.”

Fox News Viewers Won’t Be Moved By Shep Smith
It may seem funny to watch Fox News viewers lose their minds until you realize that they are flipping out because they are rejecting facts and truth. Fox News viewers want to be misled by the propaganda. The Republican Party has rejected science, facts, truth. The viewer outrage is based on the being told something that doesn’t mesh with their feelings and beliefs. The current dynamic has been exaggerated and exploited by Trump, but it is nothing new.
The lesson for Democrats is they will never be convinced by the evidence that Trump has committed crimes. They will never support impeachment, and they will never leave Trump’s side.
The only way to get rid of Trump is to beat him in 2020.
