Rosie O'Donnell, Alyssa Milano slam Trump after release of Mueller report: 'Impeach him'
Nearly two long years after Special Counsel Robert Mueller began his investigation into Trump, the report has finally been released — in all of its redacted glory. And while the non-Hollywood types like to tell the Hollywood types that they should “stick to acting” and not express opinions about these types of things, they do and they’re sharing them.
Trump quickly took to social media to tout what he has “been saying all along” and that’s there are no findings of collusion or obstruction in the report. For the record, Attorney General William Barr said Mueller identified “10 episodes” of Trump’s possible obstruction of the probe, but that was not enough to charge the president with a crime.

Trump also posted another Game of Thrones meme as a message for “the haters and the radical left democrats.” (HBO was not happy he did that.)

But we all knew what Trump’s reaction would be. So here are some from people who aren’t trying to hold on to their elected office:
Trump’s longtime nemesis Rosie O’Donnell called the whole thing a “charade” and demanded Trump’s impeachment.

Director Rob Reiner called Trump “guilty as hell.” He said he was looking forward to Speaker Nancy Pelosi taking on the president as a result of the report. “Get ready to rumble!” he wrote.
Prima Facie: Trump is guilty as hell.

America now has a ringside seat in the political arena for the biggest heavyweight fight in US history. It’s Trump vs. Pelosi. I’m all in on Pelosi. Get ready to rumble!
— Rob Reiner (@robreiner) April 18, 2019
Ana Navarro-Cárdenas doesn’t know how anyone can “conclude that Trump did not attempt ... to obstruct justice.”
I don’t know how anyone can read Mueller Report and conclude Trump did not attempt time and time again to obstruct justice. Republicans in Congress are going to do just that. They will let Trump get away with it. It is up to American voters to hold him accountable. Vote him out!
— Ana Navarro-Cárdenas (@ananavarro) April 18, 2019
Several — including Stephen Colbert, Padma Lakshmi and Alyssa Milano — called attention to Trump’s “I’m f***ed” quote in the report upon learning that Mueller was appointed to investigate him. It’s noted that those aren’t the words of an innocent person.
"Oh my God. This is terrible. This is the end of my presidency. I'm fucked."- an innocent person

It is my opinion that an innocent man wouldn’t say the below words out loud. But that’s just me. 🤷🏻?♀? pic.twitter.com/IL2mGZEtZv

Regardless of what Barr says, it seems like President Trump is completely Page 290'd. pic.twitter.com/BEnXfNOQwx

Trump on 1st hearing of #MuellerReport, “Oh my God, this is terrible. This is the end of my presidency. I’m f---ed,” Trump said. If only!!!

Here are more reactions, including more cries for impeachment and criticism of Barr:
Mueller Report summary: "So it turns out you can just kind of do whatever you want."

Sooooooo it’s not illegal if you’re really upset?

Barr = complete whitewash coverup
A press circus orchestrated by the White House - 💯 corruption— John Cusack (@johncusack) April 18, 2019
Thank you Barr for admitting that Russia attacked the USA in an act of Cyberwarfare. Even though you left out hacking and attempting to hack into our voter rolls. And the US has done nothing!!

Just stunning to see the Attorney General in the role of Trump’s personal attorney
— Mia Farrow (@MiaFarrow) April 18, 2019
I never knew before today that the Attorney General is a personal defense attorney for the President of the United States. Cool beans.

Remember: when you are reading the Mueller Report and see a redaction it is safe to assume that’s where Don Jr. said something stupid and incriminating
— Ike Barinholtz (@ikebarinholtz) April 18, 2019
Not that he ever watches it because he only watches shit like Lou Dobbs but if he were a GOT character he’d be a hybrid of Walder Frey and Craster https://t.co/NZTH0ikl19

I don't care what your party affiliation is: we’ve got to put aside our differences & unite to defend our country against this attack on democracy. Trump let the Russian govt. manipulate the people to install him as president.
American patriots will not stand for that. #Impeach https://t.co/3QvpE0XqUh— Misha Collins (@mishacollins) April 18, 2019
Ok, that’s it! I want the report from MY Federal Investigation released. I never committed #HarmToOngoingMatter and I’m a ballsy, vulgar comic. Legendary, yes, but... https://t.co/U9dRw9BhGb
— Kathy Griffin (@kathygriffin) April 18, 2019
Impeach to remind America what he's done. There are so many things we can't remember most of it. Drag it out so that re-elections happen before the Senate can vote to acquit him.
— Nancy Lee Grahn (@NancyLeeGrahn) April 18, 2019
I’m not counting on even a Dem led House to do what’s right, so I’d never thought the Mueller report would solve all our problems (We will; through direct action, unions, strikes, protests, primarying, etc) but holy shit it is damning & the president is a garden variety criminal.
— rob delaney (@robdelaney) April 18, 2019
“At the same time, if we had confidence after a thorough investigation of the facts that the President clearly did not commit obstruction of justice, we would so state. Based on the facts and the applicable legal standards, we are unable to reach that judgment.”

Glad the report helps us get to the bottom of things. https://t.co/W4fkWa7Mxb

Trump loyalists have his back though, including his mini me, Don Jr., who was referenced by many celebrities in their reactions above. And former game show host Chuck Woolery wants the democrats to “just try” to impeach the president. “I’m personally looking forward to it,” he wrote.
TOLD YA!!!
— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) April 18, 2019
To Democrat enemies. Please just try to Impeach Trump. Take your best shot. I'm personally looking forward to it.
— Chuck Woolery (@chuckwoolery) April 18, 2019
Meanwhile, Pelosi seems to be gearing up for the fight Reiner predicts.
As we continue to review the report, one thing is clear: AG Barr presented a conclusion that @realDonaldTrump did not obstruct justice while the #MuellerReport appears to undercut that finding. pic.twitter.com/mHCzGc8RGT
