As Twitchy told you last night, MSNBC’s brain trust pooled their collective genius to put together a “hockey stick” graph showing the increase in Donald Trump’s tweets about Rober Mueller.
Well, the Washington Free Beacon wrote about it, too:
MSNBC Shows Hilariously Unnecessary Chart of Trump’s Tweets on Robert Mueller https://t.co/vKigid0wc9 pic.twitter.com/jctCcddb3g

Unlike so many others, MSNBC host Ari Melber is not amused:
Trump does not only work off "impulse." Mueller has been on the job 10 months & Trump didn't tweet his name until the McCabe firing. This is a new deliberate phase.
We reported that (fairly basic) point, and apparently it upset the Free Beaconhttps://t.co/WDpQNnv5dw @DavidRutz

Ari, I'm pretty sure next to nothing "upsets" the Free Beacon and that they were basically making fun of the graphic https://t.co/7HAstXlmB1

Yes. Because the graphic is effing ridiculous.
Upset? I was fascinated by the trend pic.twitter.com/pIRFP2tEXS

If Ari’s so committed to reporting fairly basic points, maybe he could start by reporting the facts to his mindless followers pushing this B.S. narrative about the Free Beacon:
Upset the folks who created the dossier. The irony is epic. Still cracks me up that republicans started, bought and paid for the dossier and then sold to democrats for a profit. That is hilarious.

You mean the Free Beacon that was instrumental in starting ‘The Dossier’?
That Free Beacon?— Jeff Schneider (@JSBrklyn) March 20, 2018
You mean the guys that originally funded the Steele Dossier?

Maybe we should put together a graphic on the Real Journalists who helped spread that lie. We can start with Ari’s MSNBC colleague Katy Tur!
