It seems blatantly obvious that professed Republican, Robert Mueller was biased against Donald Trump from the beginning. Why wouldn’t he be? Just turned down to once-again lead the FBI by the newly elected President to replace fired James Comey, logical reasoning would predict that Mueller felt scorned.
Attorney General Sessions had recued himself. Thus, the decision to appoint a special prosecutor to explore any connections that then candidate Trump had with the Russians, fell to assistant AG Rod Rosenstein. Since Rosenstein just brought Mueller in to be interviewed by Trump, it seems a conflict for Rosenstein then to immediately appoint Mueller as the Special Prosecutor.
The first sign of Mueller's bias against Trump was the investigative team Mueller asked to join him--- all Democratic supporters of Hillary Clinton. The very reason for the investigation is still suspect, but with a divided nation, after Clinton’s unexpected loss looking on, there seemed to be no choice.
After almost two and a half years, and over $25 million, Mueller’s finished report was turned over to his boss, Trump’s newly appointed Attorney General, Robert Barr. Barr’s review of the report stated that neither Trump, nor any of his team, had colluded with the Russians. Part two of the report listed about ten incidences where Trump may have voiced or acted in such a way that he was displeased with Mueller’s investigation. But, even Mueller, did not feel that any of these rose to the level to warrant criminal charges. Barr’s summation then also concluded that Trump did not obstruct justice either.
Several weeks after the release of Mueller’s report and Barr’s summation, Mueller called a news conference. He took no questions, stating everything he had to say was in his report. He did leave with one parting shot--- he did not find evidence that Trump was not guilty of obstruction.
Mueller’s terse, double negative quote, sent shock waves around the halls of Congress. Mueller had given the Democrats in the House of Representatives one last hope of ruining Trump’s first four years in office. Since Mueller had found no sign of collusion, he had finished his original charge, but he was not through. Mueller extended his investigation from when he found out there was no collusion to look for other potential problems in Trump’s past, namely obstruction by Trump himself. These questionable allegations, such as Trump wanting to replace Mueller, but vetoed by his White House lawyer, served as the basis for part two of Mueller’s report.
Embarrassed that the false allegations of collusion had been exposed, the proponents of the Russian connection and the media that hung on their coattails took up the banner of Trump obstruction and other unnamed high crimes and misdemeanors. Also knowing the upcoming Inspector General’s report and the investigation set up by Barr to investigate the origins of the purported Russian scandal could put several of the top brass of the FBI, CIA and the Justice Department in jail, they are playing their last hold-card--- the threat of impeaching Trump, using character assignation, until the voting takes place for the 2020 election.
Not trusting either side, the divided public is caught in the middle. One revelation that is becoming increasingly clear, Robert Mueller, the once highly respected lawyer and former head of the FBI, is a rat in ‘wolf’s clothing’.
