“Robert Mueller just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people!” [1]
What a great guy.

Edit: I am sadly expecting some brigading on this thread.
My aunt is a republican lobbyist. She is also a drunk. This means she regularly texts us the most incredibly odious beliefs. Stuff like how my other aunt should kill herself because she is a leech for taking disability from the government. MAGA voters aren't sad that Trump is out here saying "fuck you, libs" on a regular basis. They love it.
His entire MO
On the other hand, I can see myself feeling something identical were someone else in particular to die.
As it implies you think it would be good if someone who has to be brought before a court of law to answer for their actions, someone who has to be given a chance to defend themselve, and to be judged fairly by an assembly of their peer, gets the opportunity to die without this public reckoning?
If this were to happen it would make me feel sad.
His posting style is also very typical of facist governments.
His approval rating is the worst of any president since WW2, including his first term, which was the previous 'record holder.' The Iran war is deeply unpopular with the American people, the skyrocketing gas and diesel prices are infuriating many. He's desperate to shift attention.
I heard it was popular with Republicans.
Also, the Democratic party establishment seems pretty mum on this war so far. They are full of neocons too.
Let's not view any of this in isolation either. None of those accounts will say a single negative word about Donald's (most recent!) shockingly disrespectful thoughts for the deceased.
If this is just ok now, can I say something like "I'm glad Donald Trump was shot. He's a colossal douchebag"?
Moreover, I'm not sure it is right for the president to celebrate this; isn't part of the job of a president to be diplomatic? It's one thing when a nobody like me celebrates the death of someone bad, but I'm not the president, no one expects me to be diplomatic, and generally speaking no one actually cares what I think about anything.
Nice counter though, I walked right into it.
Cheers. That made me laugh!
Edit: I’m being sincere with this question. I didn’t think he had a beef with Mueller and forgot the original report was never made public.
The Trump White House asserted a “protective” claim of executive privilege over the redacted portions and underlying materials, which helped prevent Congress from obtaining the fully unredacted report, though this did not block release of the already‑redacted public version.
In other words, the criminals in charge prefer to work in the dark.
It absolutely said Trump was connected to Russiagate and very much broke the law, Mueller was forced to shut down the investigation.
Russia wanted Trump to win, because they understood him as deeply destabilizing.
