I wonder if Mueller's limited information presser yesterday, will stifle Barr's
attempt to investigate the investigators? It will be interesting to see if Barr proceeds with that angle, or if it was actually being used to keep Mueller quiet. Now that the cat is out of the bag, what's the point?
It just seems odd that Barr even brought it up as an option when HE HAD TO KNOW that Russian interference was confirmed by the time he became Attorney General. Which is to say, we had a valid national security problem to solve so what the hell is he talking about? He has to be smart enough to recognize the circular logic: Trump is blaming the Obama administration for not doing enough to investigate Russia's involvement, and yet, at the same time he wants to open up the investigation to punish the investigators. Wouldn't that make Russia happy?
It's really difficult to follow this president's logic. All we can do is wait and see if Barr continues to use that pressure point now that Mueller has come out and contradicted him and, essentially, impugned Barr's reputation.
