Breaking up is hard to do — and those who were longing for Special Counsel Robert Mueller to bring down the Trump Administration aren’t yet ready to let go.

Joy Reid of MSNBC segued into conspiracy theories.

“The fact that this investigation takes place within the Justice Department which Donald Trump essentially controls … It feels like the seeds of a cover-up are here,” the host declared on the air, casting suspicion on Attorney General William Barr’s plan to review the report before releasing any of it.

And some on the left got a little choked up as the lack of hoped-for indictments became clear.

“Very rough night at MSNBC,” tweeted radio talker Mark Simone late Friday. “Rachel Maddow looks like she’s going to cry.”

Conservatives piled on, posting video clips that appeared to show a glimmer of tears in the host’s eyes as she went into an emotional monologue about the “trial and challenge and intrigue and embarrassment and scandal that we have been through as a nation.”

Bitter Dems clung to the belief that they would pick up the slack after Mueller reportedly concluded his probe by seeking no new indictments.

“It’s the end of the beginning, it’s not the beginning of the end,” vowed Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

“Whatever is concluded by Robert Mueller doesn’t mean that the president and his core team are free of legal jeopardy from these other proceedings,” he told Politico, including the prospect of continuing congressional investigations.

“Want to know what’s actually in that report?” asked an impatient Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif) on Twitter. “Let’s subpoena Mueller and find out.”

Swalwell asserted Tuesday that Trump’s campaign-trail riffs asking Russia to turn over emails hacked from Hillary Clinton’s homebrew server was “circumstantial evidence, which in a court of law can be treated as the same as direct evidence” of collusion.
