As Special Counsel Robert Mueller prepares to deliver his report on the Russia investigation, President Donald Trump flew into a panic on Thursday morning.
Not long after insisting that the White House is “running very smoothly,” Trump followed up that tweet with an attack on Mueller, accusing him of threatening people and screaming at them and describing the “inning workings” as a “total mess.”
The inner workings of the Mueller investigation are a total mess. They have found no collusion and have gone absolutely nuts. They are screaming and shouting at people, horribly threatening them to come up with the answers they want. They are a disgrace to our Nation and don’t…

….care how many lives the ruin. These are Angry People, including the highly conflicted Bob Mueller, who worked for Obama for 8 years. They won’t even look at all of the bad acts and crimes on the other side. A TOTAL WITCH HUNT LIKE NO OTHER IN AMERICAN HISTORY!

The problem is that there’s no way Trump can possibly know this because Mueller has run a tight ship with zero leaks and has been incredibly efficient since being named special counsel. He has worked tirelessly, and had managed to procure several guilty pleas from Trump associates and multiple indictments.
Frankly, this tweet appears to be Trump projecting as his White House has been described as an episode of a tabloid talk show like ‘Maury’ or Jerry Springer.
It also makes Trump look scared because there’s no reason to lash out like this if he were actually innocent and has nothing to hide.
Twitter users delighted in Trump’s panic.
And you know this how? Mueller and his team have been a black box. No leaks.
You are very afraid aren’t you! You should be. Indictments are coming and the House is going after your taxes, and other things. You will be fucked so hard you won’t be able sit down on that fat ass!— Joe Baldesarra (@JBaldesarra) November 15, 2018
Hmmmm…..looks like the jackass is sweating. This fool’s takedown will be epic. Nixon will be saying “Daaammnn” from beyond.

There has not been any screaming and shouting from the Mueller investigation. They have been pretty quiet, diligent and effective.
Sounds like you might be finally realizing you are utterly busted in a whole bunch of criminal acts and are shitting your pants.

Fixed it, for you:
The inner workings of the present administration are a total mess. They have collusion and have gone absolutely nuts. They are screaming and shouting at people, horribly threatening them to come up with the answers they want. They are a disgrace to our Nation

I think you may be confusing your administration with the Mueller investigation.

Projecting much? Replace “Mueller Investigation” with “White House” and your tweet makes complete sense.

This tweet by @realDonaldTrump leads me to think that more indictments are coming soon.
Also, it would be highly inappropriate for Trump to be told of any inner workings of the Special Counsel probe when he and his friends & family are under investigation.#ThursdayThoughts https://t.co/2bySSshVL4

Donnie, the Grand Jury in #MuellerProbe has been convening for the last 3 days. They don’t do this with zero evidence. There is a huge media presence at the federal courthouse. Could this be causing your Twitter tantrum?

Mueller seems to be set to make an announcement soon, and Trump must have thought that his appointment of Matthew Whitaker as Acting Attorney General would put an end to the investigation. But Mueller smartly put together sealed indictments that cannot be interfered with. And since Whitaker’s appointment is unconstitutional, any move he makes to kill the investigation is automatically null and void, and only adds to Mueller’s growing mountain of evidence of obstruction of justice.
Trump is clearly desperate and these panicked tweets prove it.
