MSNBC's Chris Matthews livid over Mueller report: ‘How could they let Trump off the hook?'
 [FOX] MSNBC host Chris Matthews expressed outrage on Friday upon hearing reports that Special Counsel Robert Mueller had completed his Russia investigation and submitted it to the attorney general -- with further indictments not expected.Matthews began his show by summarizing the breaking news, but stressed that Mueller handed his report to the Department of Justice "without ever directly interviewing the president of the United States." "That means no charges against the president, his children or his associates after all those meetings with the Russians," a visibly upset Matthews told his viewers. The liberal cable news host opened the discussion to the panel, telling them his "biggest question" was "How can the president be pointed to as leading collusion with Russia, aiding a Russian conspiracy to interfere with our elections if none of his henchmen, none of his children, none of his associates have been indicted?" NBC News national security reporter Ken Dilanian responded by telling Matthews that Trump couldn’t be indicted "in a criminal sense" since Mueller’s office "didn’t have it," adding that the president "couldn’t conspire with himself."
