Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney reacted to the aftermath of Robert Mueller's testimony and a new push for investigating President Trump by claiming it is simply House Judiciary Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., trying to keep his job.
Nadler is facing a primary challenge from Lindsey Boylan, a progressive candidate looking to do to him what Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., did to House veteran Joe Crowley. Boylan has called for Trump's impeachment, and Mulvaney thinks Nadler is now doing the same in an effort to stave off the threat from the left.
"He is falling over himself to become more and more progressive, in order to try and keep his job and not lose to the next AOC" Mulvaney said.
Nadler said after Mueller's testimony that "there appears to be compelling evidence of the president's misconduct outside of the four corners of the redacted version of Mueller report, and we will work to uncover that evidence as well." Mulvaney said that Nadler also told people he has initiated an impeachment inquiry.
"This is not over in their minds, which is just bizarre given what happened this week," Mulvaney said, referring to Mueller's hearing. Trump and fellow Republicans touted the hearing as a victory due to Mueller's lackluster performance in the face of scrutiny from GOP questioning, and a lack of new information to support Democrats.
Mulvaney also criticized Mueller's comments regarding obstruction of justice, and how the report said he did not "exonerate" Trump.
"You don't get exonerated, you are innocent until proven guilty," Mulvaney said. "This is over."
