that the Mueller team was stacked with anti-Trumpers. This assh*le is Exhibit A. Still spewing anti-Trump spin and conspirecy theories. But this quote from this haters book sums it all up ;
Weissmann concludes that it was "unlikely" to have made any difference if investigators had been more aggressive.
WASHINGTON - A former prosecutor on special counsel Robert Mueller's team writes in a new book that the group failed to fully investigate President Donald Trump's financial ties and should have stated explicitly that it believed he obstructed justice; he says the team's efforts were limited by the ever-present threat of Trump disbanding its office and by its own reluctance to be aggressive.
In a book that offers the most detailed account yet of what happened behind the scenes during Mueller's two-year investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election, Andrew Weissmann writes of his frustration that the special counsel did not subpoena the president and otherwise pulled punches for fear of incurring Trump's wrath.
He lays particular blame on Mueller's top deputy, Aaron Zebley, for stopping investigators from taking a broad look at Trump's finances, and writes that he now wonders whether investigators had "given it our all," knowing they left many important questions unanswered.
Weissmann, a registered Democrat and party donor, now teaches at New York University's law school and comments as a legal analyst for MSNBC.
