The GOP is way beyond deplorable!! Here's headline from Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

Mueller's faltering testimony a worry, says Arkansas congressman


WASHINGTON -- After questioning former special counsel Robert Mueller and watching others question him Wednesday, U.S. Rep. Rick Crawford, R-Ark., voiced concerns about the mental sharpness of the one-time FBI director.

The man who investigated 2016 election interference by Russia and obstruction of justice allegations against President Donald Trump fared poorly while appearing on Capitol Hill, Crawford said.

"I thought he had a really bad day. His acuity was not what it should have been. ... He just didn't seem himself. He struggled to find words," the lawmaker from Jonesboro said.

Wednesday's hearings raised "legitimate concerns about his health," he added.

Remember, we need more of the wobblies, those who've become increasingly disturbed by what their party is doing, to finally break, either by not voting or voting Democrat. Those are not the people who'll be eager to somehow turn Mueller's health into yet more "proof" that Trump's innocent and Democrats are evil. And talking mean about his age is not going to endear them to kinder people.

But some are going to see one of their own loved ones in that tiring old man.
