Two tweets, now out of order because he apparently reposted what had been the first one...but however he might have revised it, he didn't catch the misspelling of counsel. Which suggests Cheeto is tweeting these himself, unless someone else who can't spell is helping him.

Editing to add a tweet replying to the first link above, which shows the errors in the first version that Trump caught -- he'd misspelled whether as wether and typed the twice ("the the selection" ):

It's the OJ Simpson defense.

Dershowitz had made similar comments on Fox News, their America's Newsroom morning program, hours earlier, but he also said then that there was no reason to fire Mueller. I'm guessing Trump missed, or chose to ignore, that comment.

(9,670 posts)an investigation?
That's certainly not the standard and Dershowitz knows it.
It takes probable cause to ARREST someone, conduct a SEARCH, or to SEIZE one's property.
Apples and oranges, but the FOX crowd gobbles it up like red meat.

Why does he say there was no probable cause?
