Someone please, i'm curious as to why he didn't push harder to get tRUMP and families testimony? In this area i wonder if he could have succeeded forcing this further? What am i missing? TY

(4,066 posts)I'd like to think that he is a man of principle. That what he did today was not something he wanted to do, but had to do. That it probably pained him to do it.

(27,835 posts)Both Rs and Ds agreed on that assessment. The fact that you're unhappy with him, for whatever reason, is of no consequence whatsoever.

(7,808 posts)Problem is; I don't hear it from him.

He was tasked with a job, and he did it. If you're not happy with how he's conducted himself, that's your problem. not his.

If his hands were tied by anyone, he should have said so earlier, or at least today. Nothing.

But, you are right, I don't know. But, neither do you. I honestly hope you are correct, though.

(14,964 posts)they were going to plead the 5th, I really don't know why that would stop Mueller's team from getting it on record though.

(18,781 posts)I just feel that it should have been pursued to the MAX! No matter the outcome.

(14,964 posts)Congress all along or at least for awhile, not realizing they would be so reluctant to act.
And so many wouldn't read the damned report.
