“So WHY did Mueller end his investigation now?”
He came to realize that the real collusion with the Democrats and Hillary conspiring/spying against Trump was being exposed, and it was time to bail out instead of being caught in the middle, with Barr likely advising him it was in his best interest to wrap things up.
He ended it since it served its purpose for the midterms. I am sure the polls show the public was tired of the whole thing so this is early enough for the details to be forgotten but the spin can be used against Trump in 2020.
A lot of us have been wondering about this. The investigation was bogus from the start but it gave the Dems talking points as well as protection in that anything Trump did that they wanted to call obstruction, was obstruction. Maybe Trump was starting to no longer give a damn and said so.Doesn’t really make sense...
Can’t write the tell all book until the investigation is done. That’s where the real cash is. Also they were pretty much done making headlines, whatever political capital it had was spent.
