MUELLER MUCH LIKE THE WIZARD OF OZ
OBVIOUSLY MUELLER WAS ONLY A FIGUREHEAD
As time goes on we see that much of government is run by career bureaucrats. We see this in our foreign policy which has been managed and manipulated by non-elected people for decades. We see this on trade, which has been formed by bureaucrats who often have a political agenda. This is not to disparage many well informed and talented people in government, but we have elections to keep America a dynamic and responsive government.
Bureaucracies seem to get into a rut of continuing to do the same thing even when it is not working. We see this in education and in most of government. Yes, sometime if it is not broke it should not be fixed, but lets face it, much needs to improved and changed in an continually changing world.
The resistance to the changes that Trump has tried to make has been a continual fight even when it is clear that changes need to be made. It is clear that the accusations and resistance to Trump is rooted in that bureaucracy that is a self perpetuating and self protecting entity.
After watching Mueller's testimony it is clear that Robert Mueller was the captain of this ship, but rarely got out of his wardroom. It appears he allowed others to select his team, that he deferred to his team to make decisions, write up indictments and his final report. It appears to all be a product of a self perpetuating bureaucracy. The goal of this whole investigation has been to destroy Trump, either to force him to resign, or possibly impeach and remove him from office.
All to protect the bureaucracy from being reformed or changed.
So, after watching the hearing, it appears the Democrats had an orchestrated plan to coax Mueller to give them ammo for their impeachment inquiry. They will undoubtedly have numerous clips and sound bites to justify their plan.
Many Democrats know the truth concerning this whole investigation and would like to just use it as a tool to win the next election. Their less informed, inexperienced or more rabid haters of Trump want to impeach him and humiliate him.
It would be interesting to see a vote on impeachment in the house. The Democrats have the votes to do it. It would also be very interesting to see a trial in the Senate. A trial where Trump would have a defense team and the ability to subpoena and question witnesses on national TV. It would be the reality show of the century and could you see the list of those who would be called to answer under oath on national TV.
While I sincerely believe that it would be a disaster for the Democrats, I also believe it would rip the country apart even more than it now is.
This whole saga is not over, I would predict it is just the first or second act and the climax may be a year away.

I watched the Mueller hearings and saw him as a mentally and physically exhausted old man who didn't want to be there.Surely the Congressional staffers who prepared Mueller should have seen this.A case is only as strong as it's witnesses
ReplyDeleteIt does appear that Mueller was used for his past reputation.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Mueller was not just exhausted, but mentally ill.
