Prosecutor destroys Trump after he cheered Mueller's death - Brian Tyler Cohen and Glenn Kirschner

[TexasTowelie]

Legal Breakdown episode 685: Ex-prosecutor condemns Trump amid post celebrating Mueller’s death.

The following summary is AI-generated.

Here are the key points from the video:

- Trump's statement on Mueller's death: Trump posted "Robert Mueller just died. Good. I'm glad he's dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people," which commentators described as indecent, vulgar, and disqualifying.

- Mueller's military record: Mueller was a highly decorated Vietnam War hero who rescued injured troops under fire, was shot in the thigh, and refused evacuation — insisting on returning to duty.

- Mueller's FBI tenure: He became FBI Director just one week before 9/11 and is credited with transforming the FBI from a domestic law enforcement agency into a global counterterrorism force.

- The Mueller investigation's results: The Trump-Russia investigation led to 34 convictions and guilty pleas, including Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, Roger Stone, and Michael Cohen — undermining Trump's "witch hunt" narrative.

- Volume Two of the Mueller Report: Mueller outlined up to 10 potential obstruction of justice crimes by Trump, delivering the findings to Congress with the apparent expectation they would act, as Republicans did with Nixon in 1974.

- Personal tribute: Glenn Kirschner, a former federal prosecutor and colleague of Mueller's, shared personal memories, calling him a mentor and an American hero who deserved far better than Trump's response to his death.

3. MaddowBlog-By celebrating Mueller's death, Trump steps on lazy lies he's apparently forgotten

If Mueller “exonerated” him, and his findings “could not have been better” for the president, why is Trump celebrating Mueller’s death?

Remember in 2019, when Trump falsely told the public that Mueller “exonerated” him, and the special counsel’s findings “could not have been better”?

Trump’s celebration of Mueller’s passing suggests he’s forgotten his own lazy lies.

In modern American life, the list of officials and political figures who have enjoy broad and bipartisan support is vanishingly small, but Robert Mueller was on it. Journalist Garrett Graff summarized, “Bob Mueller might have been the last person in the US government that both parties agreed upon and respected beyond reproach.”....

Donald Trump, however, didn’t quite see it that way. After Mueller died on Friday at age 81, the incumbent American president responded in a uniquely Trumpian fashion.....

The written statement was jarring to the extent that it offered a fresh reminder about Trump’s indecency, classlessness and fundamentally twisted character, though it was not too surprising. After all, the president’s ugly public reaction to filmmaker Rob Reiner’s death three months earlier removed any lingering doubts about Trump’s capacity for crude offensiveness.

What’s more, the Republican incumbent has a political incentive to continue his assault on the former special counsel’s findings: Mueller and his report made it unambiguously clear that Russia interfered in the U.S. presidential election in 2016, specifically because of the Kremlin’s desire to help elevate Trump to the White House. Mueller similarly found that Trump’s political operation was aware of Russia’s interference, expected to benefit from it and took a series of deliberate steps to obstruct the federal investigation into the scandal......

While these details were largely forgotten, in March 2019, Trump agreed that Mueller served “honorably” as the special counsel, and soon after, the president told reporters, referring to a document he clearly had not read, “The Mueller report was great. It could not have been better.”

Six years ago this week, the Republican published a tweet in which he said the Mueller report had led to his “total EXONERATION.”

He was clearly and unambiguously lying, but the point at the time was simple: Trump hoped to convince Americans that Mueller had delivered a victory for the president and his political operation.

Six years later, the question for the White House is simple. If Mueller “exonerated” Trump, and Mueller’s findings “could not have been better” for the president, why is Trump celebrating Mueller’s death?

I did not post trump's actual attack on Robert Mueller. That attack has been posted on a number of threads. trump obviously lied about the Mueller report exonerating him.
