I don't either and wasn't talking about us. Talking about the parties in general.

Not sure I'd cheer for anyone dying, but I can understand Trump's hatred for the clown.
Btw, the entire left cheered when Charlie was assassinated and they were also upset about the Trump assassins "missing".

Don't forget that the other side riots when one of their own dies, even if that happens while that person is trying to run over federal agents with her car. It's not the same.
Also, I don't think it's necessarily the right "cheering" for this shite either. What we are saying is that the motherfricker was breaking the law bigly (a common theme from the left) and that he was a corrupt, PoS cop. And this is established firmly from even before the bullshite they tried to pull on Trump and enact a coup against our Republic. It isn't "cheering" to say that it's a good thing that the SoB can't try to ruin anymore innocent people's lives. We just want people to not flagrantly break the law and violate the rights of innocent people or try to overthrow our government. It isn't a big ask.

Why is Trump upset with Mueller?
Donald Trump’s frustration with Robert Mueller comes down to a mix of legal exposure, political threat, and public narrative.
1. The investigation directly targeted him
Mueller was appointed as Special Counsel in 2017 to investigate:
• Russian interference in the 2016 election
• Possible coordination between Trump’s campaign and Russia
• Potential obstruction of justice
That meant Trump himself—not just his campaign—was under scrutiny, including his actions as president.
?
2. Obstruction of justice concerns
While Mueller did not charge Trump with conspiracy, his report did not clear Trump on obstruction.
Mueller explicitly wrote that:
If they had confidence Trump did not commit obstruction, they would have said so.
This left a cloud of legal ambiguity that Trump strongly rejected.
?
3. Associates were charged or convicted
Several people close to Trump were indicted or convicted during the investigation, including:
• Paul Manafort
• Michael Flynn
• Roger Stone
Even though these charges weren’t all directly about conspiracy with Russia, they reinforced the seriousness of the probe.
?
4. Trump viewed it as politically motivated
Trump repeatedly called the investigation:
• A “witch hunt”
• A “hoax”
• An attempt to undermine his presidency
He believed (and argued publicly) that:
• The probe was driven by political opponents
• It distracted from his administration’s work
• It damaged his legitimacy
?
5. It dominated his presidency
For nearly two years, the investigation:
• Led news coverage
• Triggered congressional hearings
• Fueled impeachment-related discussions later on
That constant pressure amplified his hostility toward Mueller.
?
Bottom line
Trump wasn’t just “annoyed”—the Mueller investigation:
• Put him personally under legal and political risk
• Resulted in criminal cases against his inner circle
• Left unresolved conclusions about obstruction
So his anger was a combination of self-preservation, political defense, and narrative control.
What’s the other side of the story?
1. Why the investigation was started
From this perspective, the probe was not optional—it was required.
• U.S. intelligence agencies concluded that Russia interfered in the 2016 election
• This included hacking, leaking emails, and a large-scale social media influence campaign
• There were documented contacts between Trump campaign officials and Russian-linked individuals
So the core argument is:
When a foreign adversary interferes and there are campaign contacts, investigating is a national security obligation.
?
2. What Mueller actually found on Russia
Mueller’s team concluded definitively:
• Russia conducted a systematic effort to influence the election
• This included:
• The Internet Research Agency (troll farms)
• Hacking and releasing Democratic emails via intermediaries like WikiLeaks
This part is not disputed in the report.
?
3. On “collusion” vs. conspiracy
A key distinction often emphasized:
• “Collusion” is not a legal term
• Mueller evaluated criminal conspiracy
Conclusion:
• They did not establish a criminal conspiracy
• But they documented numerous contacts between the campaign and Russian actors
The interpretation from this side:
Lack of proof beyond a reasonable doubt ? nothing happened
?
4. Obstruction of justice was serious
This is where Mueller’s side sees a major issue.
The report outlines multiple instances of potential obstruction, including:
• Attempts to fire Mueller
• Efforts to limit or influence the investigation
• Witness influence concerns
Mueller explicitly said:
• They could not charge a sitting president due to DOJ policy
• They also could not exonerate him
From this perspective:
The report lays out evidence that could support obstruction—Congress was expected to act on it.
?
5. Indictments and convictions matter
Mueller’s investigation resulted in:
• Charges against 34 individuals and entities
• Convictions or guilty pleas from several Trump associates
Examples:
• Paul Manafort – financial crimes
• Michael Flynn – lying to the FBI
• Roger Stone – obstruction, witness tampering
Interpretation:
The investigation uncovered real criminal conduct, even if not conspiracy.
?
6. The investigation followed legal norms
Supporters of Mueller argue:
• The probe was approved through proper DOJ channels
• A Special Counsel (Robert Mueller) was appointed to ensure independence
• Courts upheld warrants, indictments, and prosecutions
Additionally:
• A DOJ Inspector General review found the investigation was properly predicated, even if some processes (like FISA applications) had flaws
?
7. Why the report seems “incomplete”
Mueller’s team deliberately avoided making a final judgment on obstruction.
Their reasoning:
• Charging a president wasn’t allowed
• Publicly accusing without a trial would be unfair
So instead, they:
• Documented evidence
• Left accountability to Congress (which later led to impeachment proceedings, though on Ukraine—not Mueller)
?
Bottom line (Mueller-side view)
From this perspective:
• Russia did interfere in a major way
• The Trump campaign had numerous contacts with Russian-linked actors
• The president may have attempted to obstruct the investigation
• The lack of a conspiracy charge does not equal full exoneration
?
The real crux of disagreement
The divide comes down to this:
• One interpretation:
“They couldn’t prove the central crime—end of story.”
• The other interpretation (this side):
“They found significant wrongdoing and troubling behavior, but legal and constitutional limits prevented a full resolution.”

If somebody had witch-hunt me and lied about me, I wouldn't exactly mourn the skunk's passing, either. Trump/Russia collusion was a COMPLETE LIE made up by the evil Hillary Clinton and her campaign staff, which also involved the twin snakes Obama and Comey among others. Mueller & Weissmann both knew it was a charade.
PS - Mueller and Weissmann were just the first of many who tried and failed to lay a glove on President Trump.

The guy in the post below was innocent from day 1. They went after him relentlessly from the start and ruined him financially and his daughters were harassed by his neighbor every week saying their father was going to prison.
I'm not going to celebrate the death of a guy, but there are a lot of people that feel a little sense of relief and reflection on the amount of damage Mueller did.
