But it goes against the way the GOP wants to paint this.

If Democrats think so badly that Trump obstructed justice as they are suggesting at this hearing, then they should be doing their job and holding impeachment inquiries. It's maddening.
He is looking for a soundbite. If he is successful they will turn a mole into a mountain. If its not, they will still do it
I don't think I can watch any more of this. Feels pretty pointless if you've read the report. I'll just catch the highlights later.
Yeah this dude sucks.
"Could be charged" in this context means Mueller believes that the information laid out in the report is a legitimate basis for an indictment.Mueller correctly stating that the president could be charged after he leaves office. You're conflating two things together.
I think the distinction is "Can you charge the President with a crime after he left office" versus "Would you charge the President with a crime after he left office". I think Mueller was answering the former, but the soundbite is probably effective regardless.
lolLMAO the one question Jim Jordan tried to get in for a couple seconds was answered with "not talking about that."
That would be okay if it was only the Democrats creating soundbites. But Republicans are creating soundbites as well. The hearing (similar to debates) has little to do with content but rather who creates the best soundbites.Mueller's press conference increased public support for impeachment, despite him not stating any new information. This will likely do the same, because mother fuckers. do not. read.
Consider the handful of soundbites collected in this thread, and consider that millions will be exposed to them for the first time because this hearing was public.
"I'm a law guy you see. I know the law back and forth and you did my prez dirty under law that doesn't exist anymore you should leave the country."
