'Disgusting and Despicable' Critics Aghast at Trump Celebrating Robert Mueller's Death [View all]

President Donald Trump shocked many on Saturday when he openly celebrated the death of former FBI Director Robert Mueller, declaring he was “glad” not long after the news broke.

Mueller’s family confirmed on Saturday that the former special prosecutor died at the age of 81. MS NOW had first reported on Mueller’s death. His passing followed a years-long battle with Parkinson’s.

“Robert Mueller just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people!” the president wrote on Truth Social.

Mueller was the special prosecutor who oversaw an investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. Mueller ultimately concluded Russia had interfered with the intention of pushing Trump for their own benefit. Trump often attacked Mueller and referred to the investigation as a “witch hunt.”.
