Trump blasts 'fool' Mueller, 'Nervous Nancy' Pelosi at Normandy Cemetery

Source: The Hill


BY JORDAN FABIAN - 06/06/19 12:31 PM EDT

President Trump on Thursday took aim at former special counsel Robert Mueller and Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) in an interview at the American cemetery in Normandy, France, where he was marking the 75th anniversary of D-Day.

Speaking to Fox News’ Laura Ingraham just before a ceremony commemorating the storied invasion, Trump asserted that Mueller made “a fool out of himself” in his public comments last week on the Russia investigation and called Pelosi a “disaster” over her handling of a possible impeachment inquiry.

“Let me tell you, he made such a fool out of himself,” Trump said of Mueller, a former longtime FBI director and Marine Corps veteran who earned a Bronze Star and Purple Heart in the Vietnam War.

Trump criticized Muller for saying that he could not consider charging Trump with a crime because of long-standing Justice Department (DOJ) policy stating that a sitting president cannot be indicted.

I'm sure there are people like Alex Jones and Glenn Beck in places that are choosing fascism and dictatorship over freedom, like here, England, India, Brazil, Italy, France, Poland, Hungary, and so on. If we want to solve this problem we must find the root cause of it.

The media were fawning all over him for having read a speech without going off-script and refraining from throwing his own shit like a zoo monkey. But, true to form, he defiles this place - the American cemetery! - by insulting a veteran of a war he faked an injury to avoid (the real disability being the yellow stripe down his back, as Tammy Duckworth pointed out).

We know you are an old school play it by the book civil servant type. However, that book has been burned. Your ole buddy Barr and Trump have shown you that and they have bastardized your report with their lies and fake portrayal of it.
Don’t you want to come before the American people and tell us what you found and what you think.
You can’t just tell people to read 448 pages. The vast majority of people won’t and that’s what Barr and Trump are counting on.
Your country needs your voice.

methodology from years past by these asses. tRump and Barr are running all over him and IMO he should count Barr as an enemy, no longer a friend.

Rules and norms won’t save us on their own. Mueller can simply testify to what’s in the report and still stick it to Trump, but it must be public and his language should be less equivocal.

remarks after his take down of CNN. Oh,btw,notice how the Fake In Chief uses the Backdrop of a Cemetery to show his so called Fake Noise Viewers how he likes those dead Warrior's and Mueller was a Fake Warrior.

Every one who served in Nam needs to Trash this POS 24/7.

His whole regime is an attack on the Constitution, on democracy, on American values, on science, and on basic human decency. How can anyone defend or support this low-life, especially after more than 2 years of this nightmare, is completely beyond my understanding.
