Trump blasts Mueller as 'highly conflicted,' calls impeachment a 'dirty, filthy, disgusting word'
Fox ^ | 30-05-19 | Brooke Singman

President Trump blasted Robert Mueller as “highly conflicted” on Thursday, claiming the special counsel "would have brought charges" against him in the Russia investigation if he had "anything" but that "there were no charges to bring," while calling impeachment a "dirty, filthy, disgusting word." The president's comments were in response to what Mueller said during his rare public appearance on Wednesday, and in response to Democrats using Mueller's statements as ammunition to begin considering impeachment proceedings. Mueller emphasized a day earlier that charging the president with a crime was "not an option" due to longstanding Justice Department policy and maintained that if he had "confidence" the president did not commit a crime, he would have said so.

I’m wondering if hill/bill didn’t have a little talk with him.

So, where are all the Republicans defending POTUS Trump?

Bill Clinton was guilty as Sin and every Democrat within ear shot was yelling and screaming proclaiming his innocence.


GOP were too busy defending Mueller yesterday to substantively support POTUS. THe “it’s over” isn’t good enough after all the damage the Mueller Coup has caused.

Contrast that to the Impeachment Party the Dems had at the WH with Clinton.

I imagine he probably called Barr to light a fire under his ass.

Trump is waiting for them all to be on the bus, en-route to the airport before he issues an order cancelling their trip to the island of misfit toys.

We’ve scene this before.

The administration is likely to hasten the that process because of this lame move.

McConnell could head off impeachment talk by instructing Graham to call Mueller before the Senate Judiciary Committee where he will be grilled about the mechanics of his investigation, how his conclusions were reached, the conversations he had with Barr, and how definitions of "obstruction" conflict with legitimate use of Constitutional powers.

His answers should throw cold water on impeachment.

President Trump had better wake up to reality, take the gloves off, release the dogs of war and do more than just complain and talk.

Because the mask is off, they have, via Muller’s wicked, evil, duplicitious “statement” declared a policy of “total war”:

The deep state, along with the maniacal, lawless DEMON RAT party are out for blood. They want to utterly destroy President Trump, his administration, remove him from office, negate the results of the 2016 election and put him, along with members of his immediate family in prison! And if they can’t accomplish this goal, their fall back position is to destroy his 2020 reelection chances by talking, pushing and seeking “IMPEACHMENT, IMPEACHMENT, IMPEACHMENT” via themselves and the fake news MSM 24/7 from now on until election eve 2020.

Mr. President don’t want a moment longer, the time for talking is over: “cry havoc and release the dogs of war”.

Utterly destroy your (and our) enemies within, before they destroy you along with our nation.

I was listening to President Trump this morning. He was RED HOT under the collar.

Yeah - so why doesn’t he DO something instead of wasting his breath on an enemy press corp?

He declassified documents long ago.
Nothing happened. We never saw them. He changed his mind.

Now, he gave Barr the authority to declassify them.
Nothing’s happened. We’re not seeing them.

These people wage a major battle on our side every miserable day of their lives - and I WANT TO SEE OUR SIDE FIGHTING BACK - and with actions (i.e, indictments and arrests), not just words.

Every now and then Trump will do something - but I only see him doing it in a negative way - like refusing to meet with them on infrastructure until they stop the witch hunt, or refusing to send his people / documents to their Congressional circle-jerk. So when’s he going to go on the offense?

These people are TRUE unprincipled and disgraceful slime!

Those qualities are kind of a requirement for working Inside-The-Beltway.

Moorhead is just another Democratic party crime minion. His job is to support the coup.

Mueller marches up to the mic yesterday to strategically pull a few lines from his report to purposefully appear to say Trump is not exonerated.

Hillary speaking at Madison Square Garden last night (supposedly for Hunter graduation) and uses the time to blast Trump and talk about Mueller’s “concerns”.

Coincidence?

So when will he take action? What’s going on with declassification? Everything seems to be going at a snails pace.


I think it is safe to assume at this point that Trump has taken action and he has little control of the executive branch.

Mueller looked like one of those mob guys about to go into the witness protection program. He can’t rat out his buddies or he will get whacked but he can’t milk the Russian hoax any longer so he has to go into hiding.

Yep - and he made the statement to try to disarm Barr because he knows he’s also not free and clear...if he doesn’t do his best to defend all the other corrupt scum, they’d happily throw him under the bus too.

Maybe they’re waiting for the democRATS to administer another self-inflicted wound, and then they’re going to jump ‘em.

I once said that if a large dog took a dump in a soccer stadium full of democRATS, they would all leave the stadium with dog doo up to their ankles!

So when is Mueller going to be arrested? He knew from day one that the charges were false yet spent $35 million.
