The Spin
Democratic narrative
Smith and his team clearly stood up for the rule of law with this thorough, unbiased investigation. Trump is only being saved from facing charges by his election win and DOJ policy. The evidence against Trump is so damning that he isn't able to formulate a coherent response to it.
Republican narrative
This entire investigation was a politically motivated witch hunt by an out-of-control prosecutor. Smith's appointment was unconstitutional, and the report represents another attempt to interfere with the peaceful transition of power through false and discredited accusations.
Metaculus Prediction
There is a 0.4% chance that Donald Trump will win the Nobel Peace Prize before 2029, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
