      One of the better analyses of what Mueller did by telling Trump he will file a report on obstruction.https://twitter.com/AshaRangappa_/status/981335273022861312 …

      emptywheel added,

      LINT (short thread). The most interesting part of this piece is the revelation that Mueller wants to write a report on this, "to answer the public's questions." Remember that under the Special Counsel regulations, Mueller doesn't have the authority to produce a public report.

      And I repeat, again--impeaching Trump for obstruction will be a lot less damaging to the GOP than impeaching him for hard evidence he "colluded" with a foreign state.

          This also explains why Mueller has ostentatiously conducted an obstruction investigation that they won't charge Trump on -- so they can deliver it to Congress to give them a least painful out on impeachment.

          Tbh, still don't see the GOP doing impeachment. Certainly not before the 2018 mid-terms, and depending on the outcome in the House, probably not after either. It's not so much power trumping principles, but power in the absence of real principles. Plus, the GOP fears their base.

          Sure. But Mueller has just set up a lose-lose, I suspect.

          Agree. And as reliably disorganized are the Democrats, can't see them making the most out of what Mueller provides. Sigh!

          Which means the GOP will go all in and force the impeachment on collusion. Because they just can’t help themselves.

          Can we just leave the dolt in office until he gets voted out? I can't take Pence.
