Trump Fights Back Against Mueller
Powerline ^ | July 21,2017 | John Hinderaker

Posted on 07/21/2017 2:12:06 PM PDT by Hojczyk

I take it as a given that Special Counsel Robert Mueller is part of the Democratic Party’s effort to destroy the Trump administration. This is evidenced by the fact that he has staffed his investigation with Democratic Party activist lawyers and contributors to the Hillary Clinton campaign, and by his expansion of his “investigation” beyond any reasonable interpretation of his charge.

I conclude that Mueller is not discharging his office of special counsel in good faith, but rather is acting as an agent of those who are trying to destroy or impede the Trump administration, and should be fired. Of course, whether President Trump thinks firing Mueller is politically viable is a separate question.

In the meantime, it is good to see that Trump is at least pushing back against Mueller. It was reported this morning that Trump’s lawyers are investigating Mueller’s lawyers, with a focus on conflicts of interest. That is good, but only a beginning. Trump and others in his administration need to make clear that they consider Mueller’s investigation illegitimate; that he has gone far beyond the mandate he was given by the Acting Attorney General; that he has hired a partisan, biased staff; that he is serving as a tool of the Democratic Party; and that his investigation is a fraud. They should accord Mueller and his staff no credibility whatsoever.

Trump is in a war. The good thing is, I think he knows it.

“Trump is in a war. The good thing is, I think he knows it.”

The good news is he is fighting back. President Trump has my support.

We on the Right are in the same war. The question is, do WE know it?

Trump might try getting the House or Senate to do a No Confidence Vote against Mueller.

I hope Trump is giving Mueller just enough rope to hang himself. It is a coup attempt.

He's not. First he has to delegitimize Mueller. This is part of that effort.

Effectively done, Mueller will have to leave, or be fired by the weight of public and Congressional opinion.

Trump's on the right track. Everyone can see this as a set up now.

He needs to fight back even harder. He needs a ‘take no prisoners’, scorched earth war with the dhimmicraps, at all levels.

I read today in my local SDUT that, Mueller and his team of Trump-hating-Hillary-$upporting-Democrat-lawyers thought they could take this investigation into President Trump's tax returns via the 2008 real estate sale of a Miami property to a Russian oligarch but word leaked to POTUS.

The Democrats have been dying to gain access to DJT's tax returns by any means and Mueller won't be the avenue.

Trump is show signs of life and having a good week.

He's fighting back against Mueller, the recusal, single payer and the Dreamers.

Amen to that too!! Trump needs to do something to light a fire under the schmuck’s ass!! I still think that Jay Sekulow would be an ideal replacement for the do-nothing Sessions.
