“If they allow [GOP Reps.] Meadows and Jordan and few of the others there, they’ll eviscerate him more than they did Michael Cohen,” said Rudy Giuliani, President Trump’s personal attorney during and after the Mueller probe. Giuliani said it would be “emotionally satisfying to have” Mueller testify and that “in terms of the politics of it, I would love to have him testify. I think he’s afraid to.”
The former New York City mayor and current Trump lawyer said he’d spoken to the president both before and after Mueller’s televised statement to the press. Asked to describe Trump’s views, Giuliani told The Daily Beast that all he could say was, “I can sum up his feelings as: Nothing new, no new facts, it’s all smoke and mirrors, so what?” Of Mueller’s conduct, he added: “I’m angrier about this than [Trump] is.”
Giuliani said he would like Republican lawmakers to grill Mueller about matters such as whether his team ever leaked damaging information to reporters and how former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort was treated in solitary confinement.

Republican’s must subpoena!
Confront his obfuscation and deflection with information from the declassified docs.
That little b!itch Mueller was scarred in his presser, and will be more so taking questions from committee Republican’s with prosecutorial experience.
Nail these traitors to the wall and then go bag Hillary and Obama.
Is that basically what I said?
Only way Mueller will testify before Congress is if the damn Senate will hold a hearing. The Senate is so much horse shi! it is a wonder most of them can be called Republicans. The whole Washington DC jackass are nothing but a pile of shi!.
He will agree to testify in private and not under oath.
I’m not a lawyer, but it seems to me that if someone in Mueller’s position ever pleads the Fifth under questioning, then that would be an implicit admission that his entire investigation was a criminal enterprise. He would effectively be facing a default judgement in any civil lawsuit filed against him.
I was agreeing with you.
I agree
Meadows, Jordan and others would indeed eviscerate Mueller.
And compel Andrew Weissmann to testify in public under oath also.
