Why would Mueller need to be subpoenaed?

[SHRED]

You'd think with all the lies told about the Report he'd want to appear ASAP to clear things up.

1. You'd think. Just like McGahn, trump threw him under the bus.

He has eaten their souls....as Jim Comey said.

[dumbcat]

2. You'd think ......

Then again, you might think maybe he thinks there are not a lot of lies told about his report, and he has nothing to add to what he has written.

But we wouldn't want to think that.

3. Even now, do we really know whose side he's on?

[Hoyt]

4. He let trump and his family off the hook. Apparently, he's satisfied with his work.

[gldstwmn]

6. He couldn't be bother to indict and

he can't be bothered to testify. What else is there to say about him?

[Liberalhammer]

5. He's a Republican

That's who he sides with.

He's a coward like the rest

[Locutusofborg]

7. A Republican that President Obama

Wanted as Director of the FBI so much that the president got him an unprecedented extra two years beyond his ten year term limit and both House of Congress approved Mueller’s extension unanimously.
Regarding Mueller’s testimony, on May 8th Trump exerted Executive Privilege over the entire Mueller Report. By subpoenaing Mueller, the Dems would be able to go to court and have a judge invalidate Trump’s Executive Privilege order. If Mueller testifies voluntarily, he would be extremely limited in what he could say.
“Trump exerts executive privilege over Mueller Report.”

8. On the upside, if he's subpoenaed no logical person could accuse him of grandstanding

or of having an axe to grind.

[triron]

9. Gives him an out so to speak.

10. Perhaps a subpoena shields him from harassment from republicans in some way.
