House Republicans say they're eager for special counsel Robert Mueller to testify about the findings of his investigation into links between President Donald Trump's campaign and Russia

House Republicans say they're eager for special counsel Robert Mueller to testify about the findings of his investigation into links between President Donald Trump's campaign and Russia — despite Trump's Sunday declaration that "Mueller should not testify."

Rep. Tom McClintock , another member of the House Judiciary Committee, said he has "a lot of questions" for Mueller. "So I hope that happens."

Collins had previously urged Democrats to quickly call Mueller to the Capitol, even suggesting last month that they cut short a two-week recess to hear from the special counsel about his findings.

What’s the punchline?

Dumbs*****

For everybody else : (might be like) Watching two movies on the same screen in five-minutes by five-minutes scenes. While dems focusing on Volume II , Rep will stick to Volume I—“no crime”.

Correction: Senate Republicans don't 'WANT' not 'think'. Further live testimony isn't good for the POTUS that they protect at all cost.

If trump said ok, theyd all be against it.

The only reason the Republicans want Mueller to testify is so they can distort the truth, vilify the him, and taint his reputation. In short, character assassination. To say that they are truly after the unvarnished truth is bs.

I’m hoping to take that day off! I think it is going to be phenomenal! Mueller won’t be able to say anything due to the rules in place But I think Dems are going to be leaguer their points, but wait till it’s the Republicans turn! He will be able to answer things like when

It's not gonna end well for Republicans

Mueller didn't investigate the likely possibility that Russia fed British spy Christopher Steele disinformation in an attempt to interfere in the election. The only other possibilities are that Steele made up the story, or was spoon fed disinformation by Obama's Intel agents?

Until it takes place it’s ?

Really? Does trump know this?

Good to know House Republicans remain the dumbest shits on the Hill.
