It's hard to figure how many times I have heard people say what a great guy Robert Mueller is. The BBC calls him "incorruptible." Lindsay Graham thinks he's the perfect guy for the job. He may be a good prosecutor, but the fact is he is a miserable pr*ck.
Mueller has populated his team almost uniformly with democrats:
Yet Mueller tapped a different sort of prosecutor to lead his investigation — his long-time friend and former counsel, Andrew Weissmann. He is not just a “tough” prosecutor. Time after time, courts have reversed Weissmann’s most touted “victories” for his tactics. This is hardly the stuff of a hero in the law.Weissman wrongly destroyed a company. Oops! 85,000 jobs. Sorry! More on Weissman here.Weissmann, as deputy and later director of the Enron Task Force, destroyed the venerable accounting firm of Arthur Andersen LLP and its 85,000 jobs worldwide — only to be reversed several years later by a unanimous Supreme Court.
Next, Weissmann creatively criminalized a business transaction between Merrill Lynch and Enron. Four Merrill executives went to prison for as long as a year. Weissmann’s team made sure they did not even get bail pending their appeals, even though the charges Weissmann concocted, like those against Andersen, were literally unprecedented.
Weissmann’s prosecution devastated the lives and families of the Merrill executives, causing enormous defense costs, unimaginable stress and torturous prison time. The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the mass of the case.
Weissmann quietly resigned from the Enron Task Force just as the judge in the Enron Broadband prosecution began excoriating Weissmann’s team and the press began catching on to Weissmann’s modus operandi.
Mueller knows this history. Is this why he tapped Weissmann to target Paul Manafort?
Newsweek says Mueller is a "hothead" who can't own up to his mistakes.
Mueller was also criticized for his time as head of the FBI. He led the investigation into the deadly anthrax attacks in the years after 9/11 for nearly seven years, ultimately leading in the prosecution of the wrong suspect, who later successfully sued the government for $5.8 million.Comey and Mueller worked together to botch that case.After agents successfully traced back the anthrax to an Army microbiologist who committed suicide once he was informed of the impending charges, Mueller “was reluctant to publicly address the missteps” in the case.
Comey and Mueller are best friends, which should have disqualified Mueller from the get go. Mueller almost certainly took the assignment in part to seek vindication for his pal and Rosenstein knows it. The population of Mueller's team betrays his bias.
But worst of all, Mueller has no problem destroying innocent people in his Sherman's March to the sea.
"God damn you to hell"
Michael Caputo was a Trump campaign aide. He was facing financial ruin for nothing:

Like it or not, Trump needs to clear his name.
He brought this wrath on himself.
For being a Republican and not a Democrat.
For trying to kill Obamacare.
For vowing to drain the swamp.
For vowing to build the wall and make Mexico pay for it.
For challenging China.
For challenging the global banker cartel.
For saying he’d put the Clintons in jail.
For eliminating thousands of the Left’s favorite regulations.
For cutting taxes.
For putting a thousand lobbyists out of a job.
For putting a thousand bureaucrats out of a job.
For snuffing out ISIS and radical Islam.
For declaring war on the deep state.
For defending the 2nd amendment and the right to life.
For all that and more, Trump has made himself public enemy number 1.
Trump is the worst thing that ever happened to the Left - by far.
They simply can’t afford to let him remain as President, but they can’t remove him democratically, so impeachment is their ONLY option and they are desperate.
So they will hunt him down relentlessly on fake charges.
People think that if we had a different AG with balls, this witch hunt could have been nipped in the bud. -—— NO WAY JOSÉ!!
This was always going to happen - if it wasn’t Mueller it would have been someone else. There was no option for avoiding it - the charges have been made and however fake they are, people expect Trump to face them and clear his name. That’s just the way it works.
It’s not about the truth, it’s about public perception in a world where the Left has 100% control over the media.
To beat those odds you have to be extremely clever, have the patience of a saint, and use finesse like Reagan did - and Trump’s challenge 36 years later is many, many times more difficult than what Reagan faced.
Like it or not, Trump has to submit to this witch hunt, and he has to prove his strength - not by weaponizing his executive branch, purging his political enemies - Nixon tried that. Not by Arkancide - leave that to the Clintons.
He has to clear his name by bending over and submitting to this Mueller probe. When the proctologist declares him cancer free - the American people will reward his sacrifice with a landslide reelection victory.
But think about the type of Proctologist you want for a rectal exam. A relentlessly thorough one. Or when you are selling your house, and you need to certify it is termite-free, don’t you want an exterminator with a reputation for relentless thoroughness?
Trump will come out of this fine. Mueller is no friend or well wisher, but when he’s done his examination, his reputation for thoroughness will actually work in Trump’s favor.
You were doing good up to that point, then you went off the rails. Prosecutors aren't in the business of finding people innocent and walking away saying "Oopsie, it was all a slight misunderstanding. Sorry for the inconvenience."
[ Robert Mueller is not a nice man. He is not a good man. ]
The public face of the Democratic coup against the sitting President of the United States.
I agree - Mueller won’t give up easy - but neither will the deep state if Trump has Mueller fired.
This investigation was never legit it is a Democratic party and Republican swamp eel lynching.
