Was Mueller just playing the role of confused old fool, just in case the scheme went bad (as it is now)? Or was he truly just a man in his decline and dotage who was brought in by others to front for a corrupt scam and coup attempt?

It was attempted entrapment. Trump didn’t fall for it.

Whenever the press describes someone as a “non-partisan straight-shooter,” you should assume the guy is a crook.

At the same meeting, Mueller became so desperate that he broached the absurd idea of how Trumps public criticism of the special counsel might be construed somehow as an obstructive act. Dowd felt that Mueller and his subordinates were now living in an alternative universe where their version of the law bore no resemblance to statutes, Supreme Court decisions, and accepted constitutional law. Just like Judge Sullivan.

I can’t really follow the details of this stuff as much as I would like. The outlines are generally clear to me but the exposition in stories is often very messy and hard to follow.
This one seems pretty clear, though. I think the basic concept is that Mueller spent 3 years investigating and only partially expected to find anything. He wasn’t really investigating because he knew there wasn’t anything. But he spent 3 years basically dithering.
Why did Mueller go to all the trouble? Because at the end of it all the core of the plan — from the beginning — had been to get President Trump in a room to answer questions and then to spring a perjury trap.
The entire Mueller investigation — 3 years of it — was just a very long perjury trap.

The irony is that the other side firmly believed Trump would hide documents, suborn perjury, and act to obstruct the investigation. Because that is what they would do and did do in their efforts to destroy Trump.
Trump did not act as they expected he would. In hindsight, Dowd played this correctly and I know he took a lot of heat for his course of action, but in the end Trump never took the bait and knew they had nothing other than the “process.”
What a travesty and pile of crap this was. It was an attempted lawfare assassination of a sitting President who had done nothing wrong carried out by partisan hacks and a partisan media.
This was election interference (2018) of the worst kind.

Dowd knew it was a trap. Mueller had done it to Flynn and others.A most interesting admission by Dowd.
What did Dowd know and when did he know it?

“Mueller was just another corrupt Deep State hack. Nothing more.”
When he left innocent men in prison it revealed his character.

All of this carries the same weight (none) as Schiff’s accusations.
Just blather. Without prosecutions and convictions it’s meaningless, just like Schiff’s failure to convict. At least Schiff TRIED, which is more than Republicans are doing.

Because at the end of it all the core of the plan — from the beginning — had been to get President Trump in a room to answer questions and then to spring a perjury trap. There is more, of course. Much of the point of the Mueller investigation was to gain the House for Democrats. In that, it was successful.

"They knew there was nothing to investigate. People subverted the system of justice. One corrupt act after another. Its staggering. The lies were monstrous. It was all pretense and fraud. Mueller should not walk. Rod Rosenstein should not walk."And neither should James Comey, Andrew McCabe and disgraced ex-FBI agent Peter Strzok."
AMEN!

I have been considering this since seeing Mueller's shameful testimony. (and thank you for the ping, poconopundit)
- Option 1: Mueller was a front man from day one to give the whole scam an air of respectability. Mueller did not have any direct hand in creating this document, it was all the work of Andrew Weissman. When Mueller testified, it was clear to me he was only peripherally familiar with the document, as if he had peremptorily read the "finished product" and gave it his stamp of approval. Then, under questioning, he retreated into a confused shell, a calculated show of a doddering old man not fully in control of his faculties, done deliberately as a way to deflect any legal process that might ensnare him and garner some pathetic form of sympathy to avoid a legal process.
- Option 2: Mueller really was mentally impaired from the beginning, had no real role in this other than a front for Andrew Weissman et al, he handed the reins over to him, and served solely as a figurehead.
From both of these options, you can see it is clear that I believe Andrew Weissman was the controlling force in everything that was done by the Mueller Committee in the course of the investigation. The only difference is that I believe that his show of mental feebleness was either contrived wholly out of cloth, or he really was mentally enfeebled.
I have nothing for contempt for him and the people who set him up in this endeavor. I would rather see them all hang, but that won't happen. They may not even be punished in any way. I hope for the best but expect the worst.
