President Donald Trump on Wednesday quoted comments from a Democratic Harvard professor on Twitter to complain about special counsel Robert Mueller, again.
Citing law professor, and former Hillary Clinton supporter, Alan Dershowitz’s comments during an interview on Fox News, Trump reiterated his frustration with Mueller and his probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
“Special Council is told to find crimes, whether a crime exists or not. I was opposed to the selection of Mueller to be Special Council. I am still opposed to it. I think President Trump was right when he said there never should have been a Special Council appointed because…..

Trump’s veiled pushback against the special counsel, follows tweets from the President over the weekend when he named Mueller for the first time in his attacks against the Russia investigation. The tweet raised fears among lawmakers that Trump was planning to fire the special counsel, a move that at least two Republicans have claimed would be an impeachable offense.
The White House has consistently pushed back on that message, saying this week that firing Mueller is not even under consideration.
Can’t be said enough: Fuck Dershowitz.
Trump’s veiled pushback against the special counsel…
Does Alan have tenure?
Just asking.
Firing Comey and then announcing to the Russian Ambassador it was because of the Russia investigation is plenty of"Probable Cause", Both of them must be on drugs
I’m beginning to think the president might be preoccupied with something.
