Rep. Mike Quigley, D-Ill., read several examples of Trump’s heaping praise upon WikiLeaks, the anti-secrecy website that published stolen emails and documents sent between Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
“This just came out … WikiLeaks. I love WikiLeaks," Quigley read from one of Trump's campaign-trail appearances in October 2016.
"This WikiLeaks stuff is unbelievable," Trump said a couple of days later. "It tells you the inner heart, you gotta read it."
"This WikiLeaks is like a treasure trove,” he had said at the end of that month. And in the following days, Trump said, "Boy, I love reading those WikiLeaks.”
“Do any of those quotes disturb you?” Quigley asked Mueller.
Mueller struggled to find the words to respond before he said, “Problematic is an understatement, in terms of giving some … hope or some boost to what is and should be illegal activity.”
