Obstructed justice. bob mueller was clear he wasn't prepared to go there. >> neil: to be fair to bob mueller, he didn't want to be here. he wanted the report to speak for itself. what surprised me and you know this process better, you know bob mueller better, he didn't have his fastball today. i'm not meaning to disparage him. he didn't know a lot. maybe that was his way of not answering a lot or leaving it as a report. certain details that came to light made he wonder, did he delegate a lot of this? did his staff write this up mother than he did? >> doesn't surprise me that he would have dele...

He could not recall or answer basic questions. that's because i don't think mueller wrote this report. mueller is a figurehead with this. the anti-trump lawyers are the ones that really did all of this work, which is why mueller has no idea what's going on. i was waiting for him to say, what report are we talking about? >> neil: you know, i was a little surprised by that. i wondering how this will look to be fair to mr. mueller, he didn't want to be put in this position. he didn't want to testify. for a prosecutor to be speaking for congressional body let alone two of them and didn't want to a...

Backfired because first of all, there's nothing there. secondly, mr. mueller himself seemed very disoriented, couldn't answer certain questions. so i don't think that worked in their favor. >> i was surprised by that myself, congresswoman. we shall see. thank you for taking the time. i know you had a crazy day yourself. >> thank you. >> neil: let's go to alayna treene on this. we're waiting for the tape to rush to us from the president. he's just wrapped up what seemed to be a long series of questions with reporters on the south lawn before heading out to west virginia for this campaign event....

Momentarily, neil. >> neil: i can't imagine he would pass up an opportunity. we shall see. blake burman at the white house. so for democrats pushing impeachment and pushing this big event today, do they regret it? depends who you are. former deputy assistant to the attorney general, tom dupree. what do you make of just how this all went down? >> it has to be a massive disappointment for the democrats. they wanted a rock solid performance by robert mueller today. that's not what they got. bob mueller was not what i anticipated. he was halted. he was hesitant. he seemed disconnected from key asp...
