You only need to take political realities into account when making political decisions.

That's bullshit. If I have a history as an editor of working for liberal newspapers, the political reality is that I'm more likely to be hired by a liberal leaning newspaper than a conservative one. That doesn't make concentrating on applying to liberal newspapers a political decision. All decisions need to take political realities into account, that doesn't mean that all decisions are political. A decision is political if the purpose or the goal is to achieve a specific political effect. If there is an incidental political consequence of one's decision, that doesn't make the decision political. My goal in applying to liberal newspapers is to get a job, not to advance liberal causes. Likewise, Mueller's decision to attempt prosecution when things are most amenable to his securing a conviction is a strategic consideration, not a political one. That I even need to explain this to you is pathetic. But apparently you think the purpose of Mueller's investigation is to act in the interests of the Republican party and conservatives like you. Apparently you think Mueller's mandate implies he should undermine his own efforts to prosecute federal crimes. Why you think that is as obvious as it is stupid.
