"President Donald Trump said Sunday that special counsel Robert Mueller should not testify before Congress, abandoning his previous declaration that he would leave that decision to his attorney general.
Escalating tensions with House Democrats as they seek to bring Mueller before the House Judiciary Committee, Trump tweeted: "no redos for the Dems." He added: "Are they looking for a redo because they hated seeing the strong NO COLLUSION conclusion?""
Trump tweets Mueller should not testify before Congress, after saying it was 'up to our attorney general'
And there we have it. Just as Trump had once claimed that "he'd love to testify" and subsequently refused, and as they've claimed "Trump didn't exert executive privilege" and are now attempting to do so, Trump has now reversed his position regarding Mueller to testify.
I'm not surprised in the least.
