So when Mueller says that he didn't have enough evidence to point the finger at the President - it goes back to him not pressing Don Jr. about the Trump Tower meeting with the Russians. I thought Mueller was a straight arrow and by-the-books kind of person.
Mueller caused the problem of not having enough evidence because it appears he stepped off the judicial rails.

Mueller should testify in front of congress, fuck that ... he's not king.
There are other reasons Red Don should have been questioned ...

(46,166 posts)I'd like to hear Mueller's reasoning. So his public testimony is critical to clear up the matter, imo.

(4,164 posts)Does anyone else remember during the elections when Trump took his family to the Scottish golf course. There was a report afterwards that Don Jr was soliciting donations from European contributors and he was slapped down for that. That's it, it was just a slap on the wrist he was told no you can't do that.
So f i am remembering correctly Don Jr knew it was illegal to accept any kind of foreign contributions or help for an election.

(46,166 posts)I never heard about it. All the more reason for Mueller to testify in public.
