May 7, 2019 at 6:40 am EDT By Taegan Goddard
Trump feared a repeat but bigger of the February testimony of his former lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, which dominated news coverage and even overshadowed a nuclear summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Vietnam.
Trump has long known the power of televised images and feared that Americans would be captivated by seeing and hearing Mueller, who has not spoken publicly since being named special counsel.

Trump has a right to be afraid. For two years Mueller has been this omnipresent being, working quietly gathering information that could (will) destroy IQ45. Trump appointed Barr as a firewall against the inevitable report, but for some reason Congress and the public weren't satisfied with a four page letter which essentially said, "Move along folks, nothing to see here." After several weeks of crowing, "No collusion, no obstruction, go ahead and listen to what Mueller has to say, I don't care," he realized that Mueller might not say there wasn't obstruction after all, which is why the Monday freakout.
Mueller is a "just the facts, ma'm" kind of guy, and Trump is terrified by facts -- that's why he lies all the time.
Finally, once the hearing is concluded the Democrats are going to have hours of sound bites to use in 2020 election ads.
