Robert Mueller, the former FBI director who led the investigation into alleged Russian interference in US President Donald Trump’s 2016 election campaign, has died aged 81. The veteran prosecutor, long seen as a bipartisan figure, drew a sharply divisive response from Trump, who said he was “glad he’s dead” in a post on social media.

I mean, is it healthy or normal to be “glad” at the death of someone that isn’t a rapist or murderer (and alike). Especially for the president of the United States?

Supporters are just gonna be like “Yeah I’m glad he died too!” because he did what was asked of him to the best of his ability? Like wtf? “Glad”?
