The Monday morning quarterbacks are out to get Robert Mueller

Fresh off the revelation that the special counsel decided to skirt the question of whether Donald Trump obstructed justice in the Russia probe, Mueller is getting hit with abrupt criticism over his decision not to press more forcefully for an in-person interview with the president.For nearly two years, Democratic lawmakers and legal experts appeared largely willing to give the widely respected former FBI director the benefit of the doubt over his handling of the politically sensitive probe.

But one element that Democrats in particular are hammering is Mueller’s approach to a possible sit-down with Trump himself. “Why not a subpoena for Donald Trump?” echoed Sen. Richard Blumenthal on MSNBC. “I have great respect for Bob Mueller, but I said from the very start that Trump has to be interviewed under oath just as other presidents have been before.”
