Condensed Soup


I was wrong once again. Robert Mueller is actually testifying in front of two House committees today. It seems that the purpose of these hearings, from the Democrat point of view, is to reprise his 448 page report to the viewing public ... since so few of them have actually read this tome ... or have waded through the many media attempts to spoon-feed the juicier portions to them. It would appear to this observer that the sheer length of this document defeated its purpose. Some brevity might have worked wonders in focusing the impact its author (Andrew Weismann?) desired. Condensed soup is not improved by an extra two gallons of water (i.e., 400 extra pages of innuendo in the Mueller report.)

These hearings are obviously political theater ... unlikely to produce anything new. But there will be heroic efforts by the Democrats therein to create enough dramatic moments to swing the American public’s opinion toward Trump’s impeachment ... or at least sully him enough to make his re-election problematic. It will be interesting to see how these Democrat plot twists will be manufactured and how clever thy will be.

Can these two committee (bone) heads, Jerry Nadler and Adam Schiff, script these hearings to so swing public opinion to their purpose? which is impeachment. We shall see. I’ll wait to finish this blog entry until this answer emerges from Mueller’s testimony.

Results:

Nadler hearing — Mueller has gone soft ... didn’t know of Glen Simpson and Fusion GPS (WHAT!?) ... He couldn’t answer why his posse reached a conclusion about collusion but not obstruction. Dems did their best to show that Trump obstructed injustice  ... otherwise YAWN

Schiff hearing — Muddled, mixed-up Mueller with few real answers. ZZZZ!
