Special counsel Robert Mueller is unlikely to be a hero who can take down President Trump just by issuing his long-awaited report, CNN political analyst Van Jones warned Democrats on Friday.

"I have been saying for now almost a year and a half the idea that Robert Mueller is somehow Harry Potter and that this report is this wand that’s going to fix everything and all we have to do is wait for Mueller, I think is going to prove to be ill-advised on the part of Democrats," Jones told CNN.

Jones said the forthcoming Mueller report, which may or may not be released to the public, “is one point along a very long journey for the country.”

Speculation again ran rampant this week that Mueller might soon be done with his report, after several other weeks have come and gone with similar predictions and no report in sight. The special counsel’s office has not publicly said when the Russia investigation plans to wrap up. A majority of the original 16 prosecutors working on the case are still on the team, Mueller’s spokesman confirmed Thursday.

Some Democrats expect Mueller’s report to conclude Trump committed crimes, while others have recently downplayed what the report could show.

House Democrats have vowed to continue to investigate Trump no matter Mueller’s conclusions.
