Newsmax CEO Chris Ruddy admits he did not speak with Trump about firing Robert Mueller
Washington Examiner ^ | June 13, 2017 | Eddie Scarry

Chris Ruddy, CEO of the conservative Newsmax outlet, admitted Tuesday he did not speak with President Trump about the idea of firing special counselor Robert Mueller, who is investigating Russia's meddling in the 2016 election, after implying Monday that Trump is "considering" that move.

(snip)

Ruddy's comments were picked up by the New York Times, the Washington Post and other national news outlets, given that he had been at the White House earlier in the day. But he had not explicitly said that he had spoken with Trump.

White House spokesman Sean Spicer also confirmed in a statement that Ruddy had not spoken with Trump.

Ruddy said on MSNBC, however, that he still stood by his claim that Trump was considering removing Mueller from leading the investigation "as of yesterday."

The MSM is doing a wonderful job of proving Trump yet again prescient. They’re all fake news.

DOES NO ONE in DC ever come forth with the TRUTH any longer?
My LORD, what a conniving, vengeful place this foreign burg, has within its city limits. And they call themselves AMERICANS. Pitiful excuse for human studies.

If Trump fired Mueller they would find a liberal judge to put a stay on the order.

When the ENTIRE DC establishment and liberal media was screaming at Chris Ruddy to JUST SHUT THE HELL UP about Vince Foster, he soldiered on alone doggedly, totally undeterred.

60 Minutes slandered him, cutting up his video interview in 10 million ways until he seemed a total idiot to their viewing audience.

Along with WND at the time and several UK publications, Chris Ruddy STOOD ALONE against the Clintons; Drudge would only come later.

But THEN...?

He started talking and acting like a liberal.

I will never fully understand it.

In fact, I don’t understand it at all, even now.

Wasn’t Newsmax sold to a different owner at some point?

Perhaps he was made an offer he couldn’t refuse.

I think it was The American Spectator that was acquired by some huge company.
