Robert De Niro: Mueller didn’t play me playing him on ‘SNL.’ That’s good.

After Robert Mueller testified before Congress last week, Rep. Hakeem Jeffries of New York, chairman of the House Democratic Caucus, said of the Democrats’ approach to the hearing: “We weren’t trying to entertain the American people. ... We didn’t invite Robert De Niro to testify; we invited Robert Mueller.”

Really, Chairman Jeffries? For the last year, I've had more experience playing Mueller publicly than Mueller has. Two months ago, I openly urged him to speak out, and while I'm sure it wasn't my voice ringing in his head when he decided to testify, I like to think he would have been amused that his "Saturday Night Live" doppelganger was adding to the chorus telling him what to do.
