President Donald Trump responded with glee to the death of an American hero whom the president turned into a political enemy. Former special counsel Robert Mueller died at age 81 on Friday night, according to his family. Mueller, a Bronze Star combat veteran known for his devout faith, devotion to his family, and public service, led the probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election, earning the ire of Trump. “With deep sadness, we are sharing the news that Bob passed away,” his family said in a statement on Saturday. “His family asks that their privacy be respected.”
