On Thursday the editorial board of the Wall Street Journal ― a crown jewel in the media empire of Rupert Murdoch, a close Trump ally went after Mueller as well. It wrote that the dossier news raises the question of whether the document helped fuel the FBIs probe into Trumps campaign.

IMO we have a lot of gullible people in the US that are led like sheep and have lost the ability for any critical thinking whatsoever. Just the fact Trump was elected is indicative of the gullibility of the US.
