2. I don't think he is "worried" since he knew what he is up against all along

as far as the Senate goes. I am sure he is glad that the House is Dem but not happy with the SCOTUS with Kavanaugh or the new "ACTING" AG Whitaker. He is smart and knows the workings of DC better than the fake prez ever could so he will be making good decisions knowing what support he has and hasn't.

3. I don't think he is pre-occupied with that at all. His job is to investigate and report, and

prosecute or refer for further investigation and prosecution where appropriate.

Impeachment is a political matter, and his role is not to shepherd a case through impeachment and removal. That is for others to do.

Mueller is a patriotic guy, he's a rule of law guy, he's a DOJ/FBI institution guy. He's going to stay in his lane and do his job as thoroughly and competently as he can. He can't control whether or not other people do their jobs properly, but he can control his own job performance.

Did everyone just wake up yesterday and realize how hard it is to remove a President?

Is for Mueller to lay out damning evidence. If it goes that far there will at least be debate.

Mueller, after seeing EXACTLY what RUMP did and continues to do, surely wants this asshole contained with as soon as possible!! It's got to bother him! (MY thoughts here)

And retake control away from him. He's protecting himself and trump from prosecution, and removal, but only a few is needed to stop this from continuing daily to our country, and to stop trump.

11. I don't think Mueller has an agenda other than objectively following his mission.

He's gotta be a GREAT at what he does!! My God if i were him i COULD NOT with the proof he's uncovered be neutral in seeing America destroyed!! I would want IMPEACHMENT immediately! (which is why i said he's concerned with the senate) I do see every ones point here that he needs to investigate and just report his findings!!

Do any of us doubt that since he knows how dirty the GOP really is now, that he doesn't care about it as a personal matter ?
Kudos to him for being able to separate the 2, as it serves all of us for the better.
