Would the White House declare "executive privilege" to keep him from testifying before Congress?
We cannot be certain what he might say if he does testify before Congress? We don't know for certain whether or not he might back up Barr's reading of his report? Few of us believe he is on the same page as Barr, but we just don't know.
But, Democrats should not get out too far on the limb with impeachment until they have the testimony of Robert Mueller.
It will probably take two or three weeks for everything to settle in place?

(3,433 posts)He may use executive privilege as a means to prevent certain information from being discussed but he can't stop Mueller from testifying. Mueller may not be able to discuss the redacted portions at this time but that is a separate matter. Because the redacted report had already been made public with Congress recieving more, Trump cannot put that genie back into the bottle.
