President Trump on Sunday compared special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation to Sen. Joseph McCarthy’s search for Communists in the U.S. government in the 1950s.

“Study the late Joseph McCarthy, because we are now in period with Mueller and his gang that make Joseph McCarthy look like a baby! Rigged Witch Hunt!” the president tweeted.

The tweet came amid a flurry of tweets early Sunday criticizing The New York Times for a report that Trump said implied White House counsel Don McGahn must be a “John Dean type RAT.”

The Times reported that McGahn had grown concerned that Trump was preparing to set him up for a fall over the issue of possible obstruction of justice, and gave more than 30 hours of testimony to investigators.

Trump renews calls for Mueller to investigate Clinton

BY KYLE BALLUCK - 08/19/18 07:51 AM EDT

President Trump on Sunday renewed his calls for special counsel Robert Mueller to investigate former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

“No Collusion and No Obstruction, except by Crooked Hillary and the Democrats,” the president tweeted. “All of the resignations and corruption, yet heavily conflicted Bob Mueller refuses to even look in that direction. What about the Brennan, Comey, McCabe, Strzok lies to Congress, or Crooked’s Emails!”

The tweet followed earlier posts on Sunday in which Trump attacked the “failing” New York Times for a report that he said implied White House counsel Don McGahn must be a “John Dean type RAT.”

1. And republicans admire this shit from a five-time draft-dodging casino hustler?

by choosing Dirty Donny to carry their "honor" as their republican family-values role model, republicans have also chosen to raise a generation of lying, cheating, childish, adulterous, profane, guilty, lowlife traitors to America. Sick.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

6. The Repugs are fully on board with Donnie Two Scoops' protectionism and racism.

When they say, "Make America Great Again," the "again" refers to the period before WW I, when the U.S. was an isolationist country, Negroes knew their place, and the rich were on their way to becoming obscenely so. When their bubble burst, however, it took the entire country's economy down with it.

2. trump is scared shitless, and he knows he can't even effectively execute a false flag distraction.

He’s going down.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

7. I think you're underestimating his survival instincts. He'll do whatever it takes to stay

in power -- and even grab more power -- even if it means flying the Trump jet into the U.S. Capitol while the entire leadership of the country -- including Congress, the SCOTUS, and the Joint Chiefs -- is sitting waiting for him to arrive for the SOTU address. Of course he'll be late, as we've seen so many times before. Making other people wait for you is the ultimate "fuck you."

[FreepFryer]

9. their #1 goal right now is to shut us down with fear over "something bad happening." Don't help (nt)

[Maeve]

3. His insults would embarrass a 3rd grader as too childish eom

[maddiemom]

22. "No puppet. You're the puppet." One of Trump's shrewd debate points.

[Maeve]

23. I rest my case! eom

[Trust Buster]

4. What a dick. In the first tweet he calls Mueller "McCarthy" for quietly conducting an investigation.

In the second tweet he makes unfounded accusations against others without a stitch of evidence. This is what an asshole sounds like folks. This is what McCarthy sounded like. See the irony ?

[bucolic_frolic]

5. Surely the cartoon images he creates are very real, to him anyway

and to the stupidest of his base

[dalton99a]

8. Keep tweeting, asshole

[Botany]

10. Wasn't Trump mentored by Roy Cohn who was Joe McCarthy's hatchet man?

BTW this is no witch hunt and Trump knows that.

[Crowman2009]

18. You bet your ass he was!

21. And with Mueller closing in Trump publicly asked for another Roy Cohn.

In The New York Times where the president asked, "Where's my Roy Cohn?"

11. cheeto ought to be a bit less loud about who made whom look like a baby ...

[Doodley]

12. An innocent man doesn't behave like this. Every day Trump shows us his guilt.

[Frustratedlady]

13. If Mueller is so bad and so corrupt, why does he want him to investigate Hillary, Comey & their ilk?

He's wormy. He's wiggling all around, can't settle down, jumps all over the place with his tweets and subjects. Saturday night must have been a sleepless one.

[duforsure]

14. trump makes...

...Bernie Maddoff look like a beginner con man. He's a serial liar and a career criminal and con man.

[JohnnyRingo]

15. "Baby" is a stupid analogy

Anyone with a shred of wit would use a bungling investigator. Like "makes McCarthy look like Inspector Clouseau". Barney Fife would work, or Maxwell Smart. Saying he makes McCarthy look like a baby makes no sense at all.

This is the first time in my long life I've been smarter than a president.

[John Fante]

27. Trump doesn't know who any of those characters are. He's a witless imbecile.

Ironically, if Joe McCarthy were around today, he'd scream for Trump's impeachment. As despicable as he was, there's no way Joe would align with a Russian assest like Cheeto.

[JohnnyRingo]

28. I would have thought so too.

But I would never think the entire GOP in the House and Senate would look the other way on Russian collusion. Yet here we are.

"It's OK if a republican does it" is rule #1 now.

[jcgoldie]

16. yep

[Liberalagogo]

17. So says the fat ugly smelly incontinent baby.

n/t

[pecosbob]

19. Me - Trump makes John Gotti look a Rhodes Scholar

[kimbutgar]

20. A lie is still a lie, you can lie but facts are facts

The orange maggot lies every time he opens mouth or tweets.

[YOHABLO]

24. Said like a 17 year old dumb ass that's never taken a political science course. He's gotta go NOW!

[D_Master81]

25. A baby???

Hahaha, the POTUS* actually used that phrase? He literally operates on like a middle school level.

[John Fante]

26. "heavily conflicted Bob Mueller"

Repeat that weak insult a thousand more times, you dimwitted, unpatriotic, unclever sack of shit. It doesn't make you look any more innocent.
