Lieu: “The reason... you did not indict Donald Trump is because of OLC opinion stating that you cannot indict a sitting president, correct?”

Mueller: “That is correct.”
Demings: “Lies by Trump campaign officials and administration officials impeded your investigation.”

Mueller: “I would generally agree with that.”
Richmond: “So it's fair to say that the president tried to protect himself by asking staff to falsify records relevant to an ongoing investigation?”

Mueller: “I would say that's generally a summary.”
Buck: “Could you charge the president with a crime after he left office?”

Mueller: “That is true.”

Hurd: “Did you think that this was a single attempt by the Russians to get involved in our election?”

Mueller: “It wasn't a single attempt. They're doing it as we sit here. And they expect to do it during the next campaign.”
Mueller: “We negotiated with [Trump] for a year... but finally after little success, we finally decided we didn't want to exercise subpoena powers because we wanted to expedite the end of the investigation.”
