TRUMP REACTS TO MUELLER’S DEATH: "GOOD, I’M GLAD HE’S DEAD"
Following the news that former FBI Director and Special Counsel Robert Mueller has passed away at the age of 81, Donald Trump took to Truth Social to deliver a scathing response.
Rather than offering the traditional condolences often seen following the death of a major public figure, Trump used the moment to reignite his long-standing grievances against the man who led the two-year investigation into Russian election interference. $SAHARA
The Post heard ‘round the world
In a post shared on Saturday, March 21, 2026, Trump wrote:
"Robert Mueller just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
A Rivalry Set in Stone
The animosity between the two figures dates back to 2017, when Mueller was appointed to oversee the Justice Department’s probe into potential coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia. $SIGN
The "Witch Hunt": Trump repeatedly labeled Mueller’s work a "hoax" and a "scam."
The Results: While the Mueller Report resulted in 37 indictments and several guilty pleas from Trump associates, it did not establish a criminal conspiracy between the campaign and Russia. However, it also notably declined to exonerate Trump on charges of obstruction of justice.
Mueller’s Legacy
Robert Mueller served as the FBI Director for 12 years, spanning the Bush and Obama administrations. He is widely credited with pivoting the Bureau toward counter-terrorism in the wake of the 9/11 attacks. According to family statements, Mueller had been privately battling Parkinson’s disease for several years prior to his passing. $KAT
While many in Washington are mourning the loss of a career public servant, Trump’s reaction makes it clear that, for him, the "witch hunt" remains an unforgiven chapter of history.
