After Special Counsel Robert Mueller protested on Wednesday that he wasn't familiar with Fusion GPS, which is largely credited with producing the dossier that prompted the entire Russia investigation for which Mueller was hired, Donald Trump Jr. fired off a blistering series of tweets ripping Mueller for his claim, including “2 years and almost $50,000,000 & and he doesn't have a clue to how it started? GTFO.”
Trump Jr. launched his fusillade after Sean Davis of The Federalist noted, “Mueller was asked if Fusion GPS was the Steele dossier-producing firm referenced in Mueller's report (it is). Mueller says he has no idea who that is. Mueller was asked if he knows who Glenn Simpson is. Also clueless. Then says facts in his report are 'outside his purview.'"

Trump Jr. fired off, “How can anyone credibly say they investigated something without looking at any of the origins of the entire thing... it’s dumbfounding. 2 years and almost $50,000,000 & and he doesn’t have a clue to how it started? GTFO.”

He added, “Does anyone honestly believe that after two years and $50 million Robert Mueller does not know anything about fusion GPS given that it was the genesis of the entire investigation? Has he not opened a paper, even a leftist, one or watched TV in that time? Tough to believe.”

Trump Jr. had a hilarious response after Sean Davis noted, “I'm not sure anyone could have done more to discredit Mueller's report and investigation than Mueller is doing right now. He can't answer simple questions about his own investigation, fumbles answers about his own report, and seems utterly befuddled by what's happening.”
Trump Jr. noted succinctly, “Maybe he really is a Republican?”

After Rep. Mark Meadows noted that Rep. Jim Jordan had asked Mueller why Joseph Misfud, a key DOJ witness who had helped precipitate the collusion conspiracy idea, lied three times but wasn’t charged although Mueller had charged people connected to Trump with lying, Trump Jr. tweeted, “He apparently lied three times to the investigators and he wasn’t charged??? WTF? You think anyone on the campaign would get that same privilege?”

Back in March, when Trump Jr. was interviewed by Fox News’ Howard Kurtz on "Media Buzz,” he was asked whether he thought Mueller's investigation wanted to find President Donald Trump guilty of crimes. He responded, "I think so because they didn't find anything, but the reality is there was nothing there to find. Now I don't believe for one second that there's not one person on that team whose dream it would not have been to take down Donald Trump — I stand by that 100 percent."
Trump Jr. also blasted the media for their coverage, stating, "They lied to the American public for two years. They did a terrible disservice to this country, to journalism as a profession. I think they've done irreparable damage to the faith that the average American is going to have in terms of mainstream journalism. I think it's a blight on our republic on democracy and on our Constitution — that's not going to come undone very quickly."
get the F out
I completely agree. That’s why there’s a push from the Dems and the media (oh yeah, one and the same) to cast Mueller as a doddering old man with dementia. If only he could remember what his investigation turned up! Or how it started!
They will have to push this dementia thing so they don’t have to worry about his lying.
Wait! Is this the same kind of thing Comey found when his bureau *interviewed* Hillary? Maybe she was the same type of doddering old woman that Mueller was today. “No reasonable prosecutor “ my @s$!
With that one answer Mueller destroyed any remaining credibility he might have had. Claiming ignorance of such a fundamental bit of information Mark’s him as a liar or complete blathering idiot. Either way, no one can take anything he says seriously. He might have actually been someone at some time in the past. By signing up to be the leftists’ bitch he’s destroyed himself. He’s a joke, a walking, talking punchline.
Jerry Nadler should be jailed for elder abuse after what he did to Bob Mueller

Exactly. I watched Mueller for 30 seconds and realized that he has dementia. My dad gets the same blank look in his eyes when he is asked about something he doesn’t remember.
Once we figured out that Mueller has dementia, they should have shut down the hearing. The whole day was elder abuse. The friggen DEMs didn’t care, they knew what they were doing. Once the Republicans figured it out, they should have backed off.
Or is it common knowledge in the swamp that Mueller has dementia?
Sometimes there is a place for vernacular and colorful speech.
Ole Bob had to fake the ‘I do not recall defense’ without looking exactly like Hillary doing the same thing. Lol. Hey, at least he did not say, what difference at this point does it make ? That would not have worked out well for them either..
What doubt?The wire services - esp. the AP, the granddaddy of them all - and their customer/member newspapers & broadcasters, are joined at the hip to the Democrat Party.
Nobody can stop the Democrats from taking the political position they do, and nobody can stop FR - or any other news organization such as the New York Times - from taking the positions we/they do.
So just because they claim to be objective is no reason you or I have to believe it. In fact the scandal is that any appreciable fraction of the population - and that once included me, more than I like to admit - believes it now.
Freedom of speech/press is our right to decide for ourselves who/what we pay attention to/belive. But the Deep State - the Establishment - includes the education establishment and the journalism establishment and the State Department and the CIA and the top (at least) of the FBI. The whole Establishment has been thrown at President Trump, and at us. But it begins to look like it is failing.
Trump is amazing. It took him and his chutzpah to be able to face it down, even when Sessions and Rosenstein were subverting him. Who would have thought??? Can’t fathom Sessions’ game.
Get The F- - K OUT!...................
The Titanic was a disaster.
This was an apocalyptic disaster...............
He was a ‘figurehead’ the whole time. He didn’t do any ‘investigations’ and he didn’t write any report. he most likely never even read it, or so it seems................
Both...................
No, a bit stronger......................
I doubt it. He was probably cringing with each utterance..............
Mueller was chosen for his name & reputation only.
He was a figurehead.
Weismann and cronies did all the ‘work’....................
I wish we were at the point where we were asking Mueller and his “co - colluders”, “Do you want a cigarette and a blindfold”?
