What I'm getting out of this is that Mueller is coming off as old. It's kind of painful. I so wanted him to be a badass bulldog up there, but of course I will be disappointed today, as I have been every day of this hellscape administration.
I do like that Nadler repeatedly had Mueller state that Trump was not exonerated by his report, was not exonerated of obstruction and wasn't charged namely because the OLC said a sitting President could not be charged.
You're almost there, guy. You've almost figured it out. Now if only Nancy was a few steps ahead of you in figuring it out...
I like what Jackson Lee is doing. Laying it out and let him answer. It seems a lot different than screaming and slamming the report down.
FYI, Mueller turns 75 in a few weeks. Not everyone can be sharp and on point in their later years like JoePa.
I'm still pissed at the collusion = conspiracy thing. The language said it is largely synonymous, and it is, but legally they are not the same. Bob was right.
so the GOP strategy here is to suggest the entire section 2 of the report was beyond the purview of his investigation. They know goddamn well there's impeachable obstruction offenses in there.
I’ll give you the brief version of how this plays out and save you the time - there were no bomb shells and nothing will change.
Seems like bob was more the ceo than the front line leader. Dems should start asking the 2nd attorney the questions
They’re better off just making Bob look old and incompetent. The democrats are doing nothing to rehabilitate him after the republicans confuse him.
Finally caught some of the Mueller testimony. Rewound video to watch some of his other responses. All I have to conclude is this: I'm tired of old fucking fucks fucking up every fucking thing. Old fucks like Mueller, Trump, Biden, and Sanders by no means should be burdened with the responsibility of running an investigation or a country, let alone a golf cart. And as smart and quick-witted as Elizabeth Warren is now, she'd be 75 by the end of her first term. Today is useless. Mueller is gone. All the Dems know to do is slowly ask him yes/no questions. The guy can barely keep up if he's keeping up at all. The afternoon is going to be a clusterfuck. Old man Mueller is fodder for Fox News. Fuck.
Dems: did your report say this? Mueller: yes. Dems: thanks. Republicans: THE DEMOCRATS ARE CLOWNS! DID YOU CHARGE THE PRESIDENT WITH A CRIME?!? Mueller: No. Republicans: CLINTON Edit: damn, a full Clinton monologue right after I posted this.
