President Donald Trump bestowed a nickname on Special Counsel Robert Mueller in a series of tweets railing against the probe.
Disgraced and discredited Bob Mueller and his whole group of Angry Democrat Thugs spent over 30 hours with the White House Councel, only with my approval, for purposes of transparency. Anybody needing that much time when they know there is no Russian Collusion is just someone….

….looking for trouble. They are enjoying ruining people’s lives and REFUSE to look at the real corruption on the Democrat side – the lies, the firings, the deleted Emails and soooo much more! Mueller’s Angry Dems are looking to impact the election. They are a National Disgrace!

Trump’s angry tirade aimed at the special counsel comes after a New York Times story detailing hours of interviews between his White House counsel, Don McGahn, and Mueller’s team. The interviews focus on the president’s frame of mind when critics alleged he obstructed justice, including asking former FBI director James Comey to drop an investigation into Mike Flynn.
Where’s the Collusion? They made up a phony crime called Collusion, and when there was no Collusion they say there was Obstruction (of a phony crime that never existed). If you FIGHT BACK or say anything bad about the Rigged Witch Hunt, they scream Obstruction!

Trump maintains that he granted full permission to McGahn to testify before the special counsel.
The Failing New York Times wrote a story that made it seem like the White House Councel had TURNED on the President, when in fact it is just the opposite – & the two Fake reporters knew this. This is why the Fake News Media has become the Enemy of the People. So bad for America!
