After months of “grueling anticipation,” America finally got to hear from special counsel Robert Mueller, he finally gave his testimony before Congress on Wednesday and it pretty much amounted to diddly squat.
Both parties went through obscene power moves throughout the day despite the fact there was no new information revealed today than we didn’t already know. Democrats declared it a victory while Republicans found this whole charade absolutely ridiculous.
And now the last Hollywood elitist you’d ever expect blasted Democrats for putting faith in special counsel Robert Mueller.
It was by far one of the weirdest television spectacles in recent years.
Special counsel Robert Mueller, who he and his team authored the Mueller Report, focusing on the non-relationship between President Trump’s campaign and Russia, appeared before the House Judiciary Committee to respond to questions already detailed in the report for nearly eight hours.
One thing was quite clear; Mueller was either terrifyingly nervous or completely underprepared.
Either way, on numerous occasions, Mueller either directed committee members to the report or said “I’m not going to discuss that,” “I can’t answer that,” “I’m not certain I would adopt that characterization,” or “That’s out of my purview.” He also refused to read from the report himself and gave one-word answers to a number of questions or attempts at clarification, saying “yes,” “no,” “true,” or “correct” throughout his testimony.
It was embarrassing and hard to watch.
That didn’t stop Democrats from hailing it as some wild victory and that was evident when House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Rep. Jerry Nadler, Rep. Adam Schiff and Rep. Elijah Cummings addressed the nation about how the day played out.
Needless to say, once the House committee chairpersons addressed the nation, they did not announce proceedings (or inquiries) of impeaching President Trump from office claiming they needed to see how things played out in “court” before moving forward with that.
But that didn’t stop far-left filmmaker Michael Moore – known for “Fahrenheit 9/11” and “Bowling for Columbine ” – for speaking out against how “frail” Robert Mueller looked and even attacked Democrats for supporting him.
He tweeted, “A frail old man, unable to remember things, stumbling, refusing to answer basic questions. I said it in 2017 and Mueller confirmed it today — All you pundits and moderates and lame Dems who told the public to put their faith in the esteemed Robert Mueller — just STFU from now on.”

Outside of his falsehood that Mueller didn’t fail, he was right to follow up that tweet with, “Trump must be gloating in ecstasy. Not because of the failure that is Robert Mueller — his Report is still a damning document of crimes by Trump — but because Trump understands the power of the visual, and he understands that the Dems aren’t street fighters and that’s why he’ll win.”

You might remember that Moore was one of the few in Hollywood (or most places anywhere for that matter) who actually predicted Trump would win the White House over Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
In fact, most people laughed or scoffed in his face, even when he was trying to say he had been all over the Rust Belt talking to working class Americans who were fed up with former President Obama and Clinton.
