The vast majority of the people directly under Mueller were democrats. Mueller was nominally a republican, but very much an establishment republican, and those folks predominantly hate Trump.
People testified under oath with the threat of jail time if they lied. I'll believe those accounts, even Sarah Sanders over Trump who lies daily.
What does that have to do with the biases of Mueller's team?
I don't know if there are biases but let's assume that there are some. The witnesses (Trump's people) testified under oath. You can't bias that.
Their testimony consisted of answering questions. The biases, if any, come into play with the questions that were asked. For example, do you take somebody's statement at face value, or do you drill down with follow-up questions?
Be advised that the initial post to which I responded was a claim that this investigation was started and run by republicans. That was the point I countered, because Mueller may have been a republican, but he pretty openly and conspicuously filled out his team with democrats. So let me get this straight, you state the it was all republicans, subtly implying bias, but when I correct you on that point, you shift to say, but the witnesses were testifying under oath. Got it. Umm, the witnesses were testifying under oath, whether the questioner was republican or democrat or communist.
too many don't factor the bold text into account...
