MSNBC Shows Hilariously Unnecessary Chart of Trump's Tweets on Robert Mueller

March 20, 2018

MSNBC aired a humorous and likely unnecessary chart on Monday about the number of times President Donald Trump has tweeted about special counsel Robert Mueller by name.

Trump criticized Mueller's investigation and invoked his name specifically in a pair of tweets on March 17 and March 18, drawing commentary he was gearing up to fire him.

MSNBC host Ari Melber noted on "The Beat" that Trump had actually praised Mueller in public over the past year, before the screen flashed to a chart showing dates on the X-axis and the number of tweets on the Y-axis.

The line graph flagged by The Daily Caller dramatically showed Trump had mentioned Mueller in a tweet zero times from May of 2017, when Mueller's Russia meddling probe started, through February of 2018, but it then leapt to two—two!—in March of 2018.

According to the chart and science, Trump's tweets on Mueller have increased infinitely over the past week.
