    It occurred to me too that if Mueller is worried about the fascist impulses of the GOP he might do something like that. I can see Dump et al. now setting him up with laudatory comments about his judiciousness ("NO COLLUSION!!!") and impartiality ("NO OBSTRUCTION!!!") up to the moment on the stand when he simply states the obvious: Dump is a flagrant criminal who cannot be prosecuted by anyone but Congress because of DOJ policy and Constitutional interpretation.

    But I can't see him doing that. I don't see Mueller playing any "game" at all -- he's just doing his job within very tightly scoped bounds that he has set for himself, and thinking that the way to counter someone with no respect for law and process is not to make a hole in the process which you run through yourself.

      Ok, whatever. Every single pundit I heard today said he will not answer anything that is not already in the report. But, you believe whatever you want to believe. I, however, will understand reality.

        I don't think Mueller is going to speak to a hypothetical. He's gonna say, "I made my statement. It's the report. RTFM."

          That is what I understand and everyone I have heard that has worked with/for him identify it as his methodology.

            He said he will only speak in closed session. He has no interest in making his opinion public.

              Then Scooby is right.

                                Wow. Related to Trump only wanting to see the idiot sailors who wore the home made maga patches on their shirt. Imagine if Obama had done this?
