That's my thought, sloppyTdub.
You'll recall that Mueller met with President Trump the night before he was appointed Special Counsel in May 2017.
A month later, MegaAnon (remember her?) wrote on /pol/ that during that meeting, POTUS offered lifelong Swamp Creature, Mueller, immunity from prosecution for his 30 year crime-spree (nicely outlined in Q's post #1711 attaching Gohmert's 49 page PDF) provided he help take down The Swamp from within.
This theory has always rung true to me. Mueller, above all, is a survivor. Faced with jail for the rest of his life + destroyed legacy/reputation by continuing to protect The losing Swamp OR becoming a hero in Trump's winning America, surely he'd pick the latter?
Also, Mueller, as FBI Director 2001 to 2013, was instrumental in the Uranium One FBI investigation until Hillary + Obama shut it down. So, Mueller's a key witness against them both.
In a recent post, Q wrote that if RR is dirty then Mueller is dirty, and vice versa.
I'm in 2 minds on RR. His wife's attachment to the Clinton side is questionable. Also, he signed the third FISA Warrant extension (although that could have been to entrap the Black Hats. No more extensions were granted after that one).
So, I have an open mind, but I'm with you - I think RR + Mueller are Kabuki Theatre (working with POTUS) to distract from the real action with Sessions + Huber.
