I won't repeat what trump said about Mueller's passing. And any news story that quotes it should include this: [View all]

"As a Marine platoon leader in Vietnam, Mueller was shot and later returned to lead his platoon after his recovery. He received a Bronze Star for valor, a Purple Heart, 2 Navy/Marine Commendation medals, Republic of Vietnam Cross of Valor, and numerous other medals"., according to Ron Filipkowski.

It would be nice if the media included trump's "war record" for comparison while they are at it. It is certainly pertinent to this news story if they have any interest in journalism. He is a war time president criticizing an American hero and saying he is glad he is dead. C'mon, corporate media, I dare you to point this out in your "stories".
