Trump says approval rating would be 75 percent without Mueller

President Trump claimed Thursday that his approval rating would be 75 percent if it wasn't for special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation.

"Without the phony Russia Witch Hunt, and with all that we have accomplished in the last almost two years (Tax & Regulation Cuts, Judge's, Military, Vets, etc.) my approval rating would be at 75% rather than the 50% just reported by Rasmussen," Trump tweeted.

Trump blasted Mueller's probe as "Presidential Harassment!"

The president's approval in the Rasmussen poll is higher than most other surveys. Gallup's tracking poll showed Trump's overall approval this week stands at 40 percent.

A handwritten "1" looks very much like how we write a "7."

That's FIFTEEN percent, Donald, not seventy-five.

That does depend on the types of crimes they specialize in, of course. It appears as though the law is finally applying to the Trump Criminal Organization.

How do you compare yourself to Jesus?

"I'm the greatest savior since Jesus. I could have saved everyone without having to die on the cross. I would have gotten along with the Romans, even that Judas, Robert Mueller.
