made the Republicans look like fools when he testified in public. They spent their entire time attacking Cohen and not defending Donny Dollhands and Cohen still came across as credible and honest. Only Justin Amash had legitimate questions among Republicans.

Cohen is a lightweight compared to Mueller - Cohen graduated from what was called the worst law school in the country. Mueller got his JD from the University of Virginia, a top flight law school. Mueller has gravitas. Even if he just reads off excerpts from his report, it will have an impact.
