‘Vile’ Trump condemned for gloating over Robert Mueller death

Outrage mounts after president posted on Truth Social he was ‘glad’ former FBI director and special counsel had died

Donald Trump has been condemned as a “vile, disgusting man” and a “sick human being” after gloating over the death of Robert Mueller, a former director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

Mueller, a decorated Vietnam war veteran who led a politically explosive investigation into Trump, died on Friday aged 81, triggering a callous reaction from the US president.
