It's time for Mueller to produce evidence of wrongdoing by Trump or drop it

Dissuading Trump from firing Mueller is one thing; singing the praises of Mueller is quite another. This investigation does not deserve to be unplugged, but nor does it deserve to be applauded.

Begun with no known crime to justify it, the entire operation has been riddled with revelations of bias and questionable motive. Despite the lack of findings so far, Assistant Attorney General Rod Rosenstein has overseen an expansion of the counsel’s purview to include matters as far-flung as Paul Manafort’s business dealings and a slew of Trump organization documents that may or may not even pertain to Russia.

Add in the gaggle of politically active Democrats on the Mueller team, and the result does not exactly inspire confidence as to objectivity. So if this entire enterprise deserves neither trust nor dissolution, a key remaining question involves the president’s personal interaction with it: Should he submit himself for interviews or questioning of any type, even in writing?
