Russia probe marked by contrasting styles of Trump and Mueller

The differences in approach and disposition of the two men at the heart of the Russia probe could hardly be more pronounced: a combative president who wants to counterattack in both public and private, and the methodical special counsel and former FBI director who has not uttered a single word in public about the investigation.

I was surprised. I didn't think Mueller would be ready until next year, or maybe by Christmas. nt Honeycombe8 Nov 2017 #52
