So there are two really interesting things. >> where have i heard this before. >> exactly. so these are areas that he might be able to discuss with mueller, for example. if mueller were to ask him how they did things and whether or not it was always kind of bob water. but its interesting because we dont know whether or not he actually had any role with cambridge analytica in 2016. theres no evidence that he did, but it raises questions about why he would have stopped that work in 2015 going into...
