The Circus Comes To Town
The circus returns to Washington. On Wednesday Robert Mueller is scheduled to appear before two House committees. Mueller is expected to testify for a total of five hours. It has long been speculated that if Mueller testified, he would not testify alone. On Tuesday it was announced that Aaron Zebly would join Mueller. Undoubtedly he will be there to “help” Mueller remember specific items in the report. It appears that Mueller was little more than a public figurehead. He probably does not know a lot about the actual formulation of the report bearing his name.
What is the Democrats’ purpose in heading down this path? Of course, the long term objective is to overthrow the duly elected government of the United States. They hope to do this via impeachment even though PDJT has done nothing wrong.
Impeachment is a political process. The Democrats know they cannot succeed with impeachment unless they can generate outrage. So outrage will be one of the objectives of this exercise. It will not be about educating the American public about impeachment as Speaker Pelosi has been peddling. And the Dems will hope for outrage on both sides of the aisle. They desperately need the smokescreen that outrage brings.
