If that was such a point of contention why did trump offer Mueller the FBI directors job the day before AG Rosenstein asked him to be Special Counsel?
There's no way an alleged squabble over golf membership years ago has anything to do with the Russian interference investigation, in my opinion. That smells like just another propaganda Trump claim that is ridiculous on its face. It's inconsistent with Mueller's style and his record of service to the country for decades.
Mueller's not responding to any of the bullshit aimed at him and his team by Trump and company, and I don't think he ever will. He's never been one for drama/nonsense and sure doesn't seek the spotlight.
Mueller is just doing his job, and he hasn't charged anyone named Trump with anything at this point. Based on the endless crying, name calling and attacks on Mueller and company by Trump & Friends, however, you'd think the president was being hauled off to prison tomorrow. It's a one-sided strategy and narrative designed to shore up public defensiveness and support of 'victim' Trump, in my view. And, it works on a lot of people.
Anyway, I don't believe Trump offered Mueller the FBI Director job. Instead, he was called in for interviews but was removed from the short list when Rosenstein appointed him as Special Counsel shortly thereafter.
And I don't believe what you believe.
There was interference in the election and collusion with Russia and both come from the Democratic Party. What investigations and charges has Mueller bought about?
If the answer is none...I just think he is doing a partisan political hit job.
If bad people on both sides go down for bad things, I have no real issue
