Our president may be a boorish incompetent, but he's not a traitor. If you've been marinating in left-wing commentary, that's probably unexpected, but it's good news. A dramatic Trumpian exit would admittedly have had its charms. But do we really want to hear that the Oval Office has been occupied by a Putin puppet for more than two years? It's a relief to hear that American democracy isn't quite that sick.
""Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice."
- Arthur C. Clarke
It's worth observing that Mueller's report, whatever it contains, was not about whether the Russians knowingly colluded with Trump, it was about whether Trump knowingly colluded with the Russians.

On the right, many will view this as an opportune moment for scathing indictments of the liberal media and the FBI.
Wait, what did the FBI suppsoedly do now?
