Trump Says Market Would Crash If He Gets Impeached

Make your point or don't.  You're intelligent enough to understand what I said.  Either you've got a response or you don't.

The skill set for an editor of a liberal paper is the same as for a conservative paper.

Way to attack the example used to illustrate a point rather than attack the point itself. The "skillset" of an editor for a liberal newspaper is not the same as that for a conservative paper as judgements which call upon the editors values are applied, which might not align as well with a conservative paper's mission as that of a liberal paper. But if you don't like the example, no problem. We'll just substitute a different one. Let's say that one is a progressive commentator. One is likely to concentrate on acquiring a position at NPR rather than at Fox News as one's progressive views would be less welcome at Fox. The candidate is interested in a job, not pushing progressive viewpoints. As with Mueller, the difference is that it is the political bias of others and how they may influence those others which is the political reality that one is dealing with. In both cases, the person is not guided in their actions by their political biases, but realistically must accommodate the fact that others are engaged in making politically biased actions which would affect one's ability to accomplish non-political goals. So, no, it isn't Mueller's politics at issue, nor are his politics dictating his decision. That's why, as noted, Mueller's decision is not political, though it takes political realities into account. In that instance, it is other people making politically biased decisions. Mueller is simply reacting to that reality in line with his goals and mandate as special prosecutor.
