delicious!....QAnon fans thought Mueller would take down the Democrats. Instead, Sebastian Gorka made fun of them.

While most of Donald Trumps allies braced for the release on Thursday of Special Counsel Robert Muellers report, believers in the pro-Trump QAnon conspiracy theory approached the long-awaited publication with a sense of thrill.
For years, QAnon fans have been mocked for believing that Mueller was secretly in league with the president, working hand-in-hand to uncover Satanic rituals committed by top Democrats before shipping them off to Guantanamo Bay. They had been told it was ridiculous to base their entire political worldview on a series of anonymous clues posted on internet message boards including one that claimed Hillary Clinton was secretly arrested in October 2017.

Unhappy QAnon believers were left to grapple with the letdown. As the reports lack of QAnon proofs became clear, the Patriots Soapbox livestream quickly moved on to other topics like human trafficking. The channels viewers werent fooled, though. The comment section quickly filled up with disappointed QAnon fans.
On Voat, a Reddit-style forum alternative popular with QAnon fans, believers lamented the fact that they had been duped again.
Trump is toast, said one poster who said he wouldnt vote in 2020 after the disappointment. Lied to us to extend his re-election. Good luck Q peeps. I'm done here.

I'm surprised Sebastian Gorka isn't inciting them even more, opportunist that he is...

Yup... apparently so. They thought Mueller was secretly essentially an agent of Trump
