Poll: Americans Were Sort of Hoping Mueller Would Arrest Someone New Every Day
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)After a memorable Monday, in which the special counsel announced criminal charges against three men associated with Donald Trumps campaign, millions of Americans were sort of hoping that Robert Mueller would arrest someone new every day, a new poll indicates.
According to the poll, Mondays news that Paul Manafort, Rick Gates, and George Papadopoulos had been charged may have unfairly raised Americans expectations that Mueller would be generating new arrests at the rate of at least three a day.
Monday was one of the happiest days of my life, one poll respondent said. It started out great with Manafort and Gates, and then, bam, out of nowhere, Papadopoulos. I guess I started hoping all days would be like that.
Although Jared Kushner and Donald Trump, Jr., continue to be Americans most popular picks for the person Mueller arrests next, the poll suggests that, at this point, the indictment-starved public would be willing to settle for a lesser-known figure.
