That was also false, was it not . I would like to think so, yes. Your investigation is not a witch hunt, is it . It is not a witch hunt. Weve heard from the white house about todays hearing. Press secretary Stephanie Grisham called it an epic embarrassment for the democrats. President trumpweeting out several thoughts about his hearing. Like quote i would like to thank the democrats for holding this mornings hring end quote and just a few minutes ago he addressed reporters at the white house. Take ae list we had a very good day today, the republican party, ourc nt country. There was no defense of what Robert Mueller was trying to defend. Whether his performance was aed about one or a good one. I think everybody understands that. I think everybody what was going on. There was no defense to this ridiculous hoax this witchhunt thats been going on for a long time. Continuing our coverage of the muellh rings, were joined by mark murray. The senior Political Editor tore nbc news. What was your big taaway . Was there any kind, anything we could consider a bombshell . Or was it just kind of steady as he goes . Wendy, if were you looking for a bombshell or a big theatrical performance, a perry masment. You didnt get it it if you were a democrat. On the other hand, because Robert Mueller was so carefued so meason what he wanted to actually talk out, to me i gave him a lot of credibility on what he did discuss. And as erica mentioned on the clip, him saying this is not a witch hunt. It is not a hoax that the russian interference campaign wanted to benefit trump. That President Trump and his use of wikileaks during the tailend of the 2016 election, was problematic at the very least. Those type of statements from robert r almost undercut everything you heard from President Trump. Hey, this is a witch hunt. There was no collusn, no obstruction. And if you really paid attention to mueller, and him having the credibility he had by sticking to the facts of what he wanted to do, i dont necessarily think this was a god day for the trump white house. But mark, this was seen by many as having the potential to sway democrats who were on the fence, about impeaching the president. And mueller avoidedg usin that term in the report. How likely does that seem after today . Ah, on the impeachment politics, i dont know. Well have to see how t next 24 hours or 48 hours or a week goes on the coverage of whether that happens. To meth the ma is already very complicated for democrats when it comes to impeachment. They have the votes in the house to begin impeachment proceedings, to be ail to convict him in the senate, the math is not there and there are democrats eyeing the 2020 election. Saying thats the best way to get rid of the president. On the other hand you have a story thats very complicated for the white house with, you end up having somebody like Robert Mueller, who went down a long list of either wrongdoing or potential wrongdoing or unseemly wrongdoing by not only the president , but people around him. To make any kind of broad brushstrokes about wre the impeachment politics are, i think its too early. Democrats didt get the knockout big moment. But at the same time, i do think that what mueller ended up saying was pretty damaging to the white house. How do you think this isng gto play beyond the beltway . One thing that happens here in washington and a lot of people around the rest of the country,t summertimeyre doing their thing. Do you think this was mustsee tv . Do you think it connected with anyone out there . So heres one of the interesting things about the entire trump era. I think so Many Americans have their minds made up about President Trump and his presidency two years ago, but when youre talking about t 5 to 10 of the electorate thats in the middle. Doesnt have their minds made up. I think that this story is so confusing, so complex, a lot of people havent made up their minds this is what ended up happening today, might ge them more information to make a judgment on it pretty complicated story. You can see full coverage analysis of Robert Muellers testimony. Coming up tonight on nbc nightly news. Peopkee around our area wo up early and headed for the bars to watch todays hearings. Coming up later on news4 at 5 00, tommy mcfly will have more on the watch parties. A good reasone to h to the bar whether you were watching the hearing or not.
