"Good, I'm glad he's dead," the president said.

“Good, I’m glad he’s dead,” Trump said.

Donald Trump reacted to the death of former FBI Director and Special Counsel Robert Mueller with a celebratory post on Truth Social minutes after news broke on Saturday.

“Robert Mueller just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people!” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social at 1:26 p.m. EDT, signing the message, “President DONALD J. TRUMP.”

Mueller, who died at 81, led the Justice Department’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and examined ties between Trump’s campaign and Moscow.

    Fuck that! When Trump dies, I’ll open up champagne… one less nazi in the world

    Going high when they keep going as low as humanly possible gets real tiring…

    I get what you’re saying, I just don’t feel the same way. Trump has done a lot of damage to the world, to political discourse, to the US’ standing in the rest of the world. His death will be a net positive for the global society, and I will treat it as such. With champagne.

      Fuck that!

      I’m happy to disagree respectfully on this and not judge you. I can certainly understand where you’re coming from. I’m also very willing to go low and actually fight back - I agree the Obama way is partly how we got here. I just personally don’t see much to gain on this particular thing, and definitely feel I have something to lose.
