Trump: Dems 'have become totally unhinged' following Mueller report

Source: The Hill



BY JOHN BOWDEN - 04/02/19 09:13 AM EDT

President Trump took aim at two House Democrats on Tuesday in a tweet accusing the party of becoming "unhinged" in the wake of Robert Mueller's conclusion to his years-long investigation of the Trump campaign and Russian election interference.

In a pair of tweets Tuesday morning, the president said that Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) and Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the chairs of the House Judiciary and Oversight committees, would never be satisfied by cooperation and testimony from members of his campaign and eventual administration.

The president also accused Democrats of idolizing Mueller, the head of the special counsel investigation, whom Trump himself has frequently said was running a corrupt probe at the Justice Department aimed at deligitimizing his presidency.






Trump and his allies have celebrated the conclusion of Mueller's investigation and a summary of the special counsel's findings from Attorney General William Barr, which stated that Mueller found no evidence of collusion with Russia from members of Trump's campaign and declined to take a position on obstruction of justice, as a victory over Democrats, who have long claimed that evidence exists to prove criminal activity on the part of senior Trump campaign officials.

"Robert Mueller was a God-like figure to the Democrats, until he ruled No Collusion in the
long awaited $30,000,000 Mueller Report."

He has to feed his Fans every day with outrage, like Fentanyl to a junkie. Without tweets, Trumpy would die. He has no other message than the MESSAGING. It doesn't matter what he says, it's that he's saying it. Of course, lies are irrelevant. The Messaging is relevant. And that's ALL that's relevant. Tweets are Trumpy's lifeblood. Can you imagine if someone bought out Twitter and cancelled his account? He'd be politically dead. Instantly.

and then when the other shoe drops, and you can then take your head out of your ass, and you will realize, that not even your Federalist Society asshole AG confirmed by the Moscow Mitch senate can or will be able to stop the grand jury testimony from being provided to the public....................we paid for the investigation, and Congress has a right along, with us to see the evidence, because after all we are the final arbiter in the process, because the other shoe is going to drop................so keep sitting in front of your mirror on the wall and saying who the fairest of them all in your malignant narcissistic psychopathic criminal mind, but we are coming, you will not be able to hide....................your continuing gas lighting to deflect will not work......................65 million said BS to you................................and your corrupt ilk......................

And that last line on that last tweet is the gaslighting.

His tweets demonstrate the reality that he is obsessed with tv coverage (his) and does nothing but pay attention to it and "ratings" no policy, no running the country, just couch-potatoing it and phoning (tweeting) it in.

I'm beginning to wonder if there really is a report or if the Barr summary was based on yellow swamp gas.

Not encouraging people to hit those you don't like. Not talking about brown people or Muslims like they are not human beings. Not stoking fear and anger and hate, and patting neo-Nazis on the back for being good people. It's persistently, steadfastly, going after those who break the law or are unethical in their actions pertaining to America's sovereignty and democracy.

Full steam ahead. We are proud of our Democrats in Congress! They are REALLY making America Great Again.

To these Trump tweets. That just plays right into Trumps hands. Of course it is factually inaccurate so why give it legitimacy by treating it as newsworthy?

Mueller is a Republican. First trump trashes him then calls him a honorable man.

As a American the lies of Bushco will always be remembered. Mueller was deep in it with Bush.
