Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn (R-TX) thought it would be a good idea to attack Special Counsel Robert Mueller over the Russia probe. As Mueller’s noose tightens, Republicans are losing their sh-t and attacking Mueller and the FBI in order to protect probably the most corrupt ‘president’ ever.
Former Attorney General Eric Holder tweeted on Friday, “Speaking on behalf of the vast majority of the American people, Republicans in Congress be forewarned: any attempt to remove Bob Mueller will not be tolerated.”
Cornyn retweeted Holder to say, “You don’t.”

Bloomberg’s Steven Dennis tweeted on Saturday that “[Cornyn]’s beef is with Holder, not Mueller,” but Cornyn responded to say, “But Mueller needs to clean house of partisans.”

The Washington Post’s Greg Sargent asked Cornyn, “Will you accept the findings of the Mueller probe as legitimate, @JohnCornyn?”
“Makes sense to me to wait to see what they are first,” Cornyn responded.

Republicans are trying to discredit Mueller and Twitter users took notice.
If you even THINK of firing Mueller I’ll make it my life’s mission to make sure this is your last term, buddy.

@EricHolder speaks for 69% of Americans according to recent polling. That’s “vast majority” in my book. You were around for the Saturday Night Massacre @JohnCornyn. Firing Mueller would be X100!

He speaks for me, @JohnCornyn , and he speaks for the vast majority of American citizens who, you should remember, vote. See you in 2018.
