The president is likely a serial rapist and abuser of women. He and his family are profoundly corrupt, violators of the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution. He is very likely a tax fraud and a money launderer. He has imprisoned children and tortured Puerto Rico.
He has collaborated with MBS in the cover-up of the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. His corrupt cabinet and advisors have violated ethics regulations and laws regularly. He has undercut the rule of law and ignored standing US laws on a regular basis.
The list goes on and on. None of these things are going to be discussed by Robert Mueller in his testimony. Trump-Russia, including both collusion and obstruction, are egregious crimes and certainly Mueller's report presents impeachable offenses.
But...but...but...the Mueller testimony and hearings cover only one set of the crimes of Trump, his offenses against the Constitution, his office, the laws of the U.S. and the American people. We must pursue all of them, investigate and hold him accountable.
Stop thinking the Mueller is the magic bullet. Stop thinking Trump-Russia, bad as it is (the worst scandal in the history of the American presidency bad), is the totality of what demands scrutiny and action. Maintain perspective...and pressure across many fronts.
