(67,782 posts)....sticking up for the guy who tried to destroy Hillary Clinton, but failed miserably) he did say it.
The good thing is that it's gotten a lot of press, anti-trump press.

(297,154 posts)Very strange.. but good advice coming from Trey.. even though it's impossible for the mole's lawyer to do so.

(54,770 posts)wont get trump because evidence isnt strong enough for GOPers to do anything. Gowdy wants Mueller to finish the investigation with no charges against trump, rather than leaving it up in the air.

(22,976 posts)If Trey Gowdy wants to stand with Mueller, fine.
But just recently, he expressed a desire to appoint a special counsel to investigate Hillary Clinton, the Clinton Foundation, and the FBI's handling of its investigation into her use of a private email server.
I have zero faith in that man to do the right thing.

(8,000 posts)no one can point at him and claim he was on the wrong side. I think he intends to run for a state office like governor or attorney general.
George II
(67,782 posts)....I despise the man for what he's done the last several years, especially to Hillary Clinton. But if someone as deplorable as him says Mueller is doing the right thing and is telling trump's lawyer that he's acting like his client is guilty (for whatever reasons), I have to admire that.

(8,000 posts)Just saying that I think it was carefully crafted to be right no matter what happens.
