President Trump’s tweet advising special counsel Robert Mueller not to testify was reportedly posted after days of stewing over the amount of media coverage a Mueller hearing would receive, The Associated Press reported.
Trump reportedly believes that Mueller has become an unfairly favored figured in the mainstream media and Trump has growing concerns that a Mueller testimony would get even more coverage than what his former lawyer Michael Cohen received, according to three White House officials and one Republican who spoke to the AP.
While the Justice Department and the House Judiciary Committee tentatively agreed over the weekend that Mueller would testify before the committee on May 15, Trump is clearly not a fan of the proposition. In a tweet on Sunday, Trump said that Mueller “should not testify” and argued that there should be “no redos for the Dems!”
Live by the ratings, die by the ratings.
not only will it get media coverage, it’s possible a sliver of truth about Mueller’s findings will slip out. nothing is more painful than truth to the abomination.
Whatever his motive is, Dems should focus on collecting evidence of his crimes.
A sliver of truth may turn some of Trump’s base and send him to prison.
Innocent people with nothing to hide have nothing to fear, I thought.
