Jesse Ferguson, an aide in Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, said Democrats should lead with the charges filed in the Mueller investigation to show that crimes have been committed, despite Trump’s protestations. There is no evidence suggesting that a government source was embedded into Trump’s campaign, as the president has suggested. It also found support for Trump testifying before Mueller’s investigation fell from 54 percent in March to 39 percent in May. Some Democrats think the best offense is a good defense of Mueller and his investigation. “[They] are literally on the defensive ‘defending the investigation’ or ‘protecting Mueller,’ while the GOP is on offense attacking Mueller.
