CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said that President Trump and Robert Mueller are very similar but added that it “certainly seems” as though Trump is winning.
Toobin made the comments following the conclusion of Mueller’s testimony in front of two House committees Wednesday. He was there to testify about his investigation that determined the president’s campaign did not knowingly conspire with Russia to win the 2016 presidential election.
“I was struck by the enormous personal contrast between Robert Mueller and Donald Trump. They have a lot of common. They’re within months of each other in terms of how old they are, they were both raised in wealth, both Ivy League educated,” Toobin began.
“In demeanor, and approach, they’re from different planets,” he continued. “He said so much less than he could have said. He didn’t pass judgment beyond what was precisely in the report. And as we all know from watching tweets and watching the president, they are just so different. And you look who’s winning now, it certainly seems like Donald Trump is winning between the two of them.”
