Trump on Mueller investigation: 'STOP!'

Source: The Hill

President Trump went after special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Russian election interference in a series of tweets Sunday, resuming his calls for the investigation to end.

Trump first blasted the “failing and crooked” New York Times over its “long & boring story indicating that the World’s most expensive Witch Hunt has found nothing on Russia & me so now they are looking at the rest of the World!”

He also targeted the make up of Mueller’s team and called for an investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton instead of him.

"At what point does this soon to be $20,000,000 Witch Hunt, composed of 13 Angry and Heavily Conflicted Democrats and two people who have worked for Obama for 8 years, STOP!" Trump tweeted.

He's a pathological LIAR. His LIES can easily be proven to be LIES with just a bit of fact checking and yet there are still way too many intellectually lazy people who would rather accept a blatant LIE and obvious deflection than take a few moments and use the grey matter that's in their head for critical thinking.

I used to think most Americans were fairly intelligent, now I think way too many have been eating lead paint chips and drinking toxic chemicals so they've had their brains turn to mush.

WaPo and every other publication should fight fire with fire. Start a series of reports on failing tRUMP Organization and Kushner Properties.

From Health violations in the kitchens to bed bugs in their beds. Provide reporting that isn't above the heads of the lemmings of the tRUMP cult. They don't get or care about crooked bank loans, foreign influence buying and all the other grifter grifting. But tell them that they will get salmonella or bitten by bed bugs or see cockroaches running around the place and it will connect with them on a visceral level not a mental level (which is deficient).

Time for when he goes low, go lower?

Scumbag. Obviously there are far better people in charge of this investigation and people indicted and rendered guilty already. Do you not see the writing on the wall? What it says is that you're a massive fraud, a joke and a POS.

What is he talking about when he says Podesta brother is closing office?? He Tweets:

".and why hasn’t the Podesta brother been charged and arrested, like others, after being forced to close down his very large and successful firm? Is it because he is a VERY well connected Democrat working in the Swamp of Washington, D.C.?"

No, because she didn't work with Russia and other countries and people to
rig our elections.

BTW I don't know what part of the up thread lines I like the most.

The most dangerous creature is one that is cornered and has NO options left, because they have nothing left to lose. Have you ever seen an animal respond in that kind of situation ? Fear or any sense of danger is completely over-ridden in the adrenalin surge to live, to escape.

I'm terrified of what this man could do once he finally comprehends that there's no way out of this labyrinth of lies that he has spent his entire life constructing around him. I don't think he even understands the depth of his own perfidy and that it is all going to be exposed to the world. Once that realization finally sets in, and he has nothing left to lose, that's when we'll see the worst side of him.

Malignant narcissists like trump do not tend toward suicide. It is psychologically-impossible for them to go down that path as they think they will always be able to prevail. When he is left with no choices, he will want to inflict as much pain, damage and destruction as possible as revenge for his predicament. There is nothing he will not do to make this country pay for the rejection.

I knew someone once like this. The result was shattering and lethal. So, I, too am afraid.

Once again, and for the 10,000th time, if you are innocent, you have nothing to fear, but King Donald the 1st, or David Dennison, or John Miller, or David Barron, or whomever the f...k he wants to dress as today, continues to make himself look guiltier than s...t. He sure doesn’t project innocence, he exudes the complete and utter fool that he is pretending to be.
