It is also entirely possible, as various sites have suggested, this was never about Mueller per se and instead some kind of long-winded attempt to troll the media—or maybe pull a supposed gotcha on the #MeToo movement, which emphasizes believing accounts of sexual violence. Either would stretch the definition of “trolling,” seeing as only the alleged conspirators look stupid here. (For example, the only media outlet to report the Mueller accusation as anything other than a hoax appears to be the Gateway Pundit, which is one of the president’s favorite news sites.) https://gizmodo.com/catastrophically-stupid-plot-to-smear-robert-mueller-ex-1830115833

Популярный среди трампистов сайт Gateway Pundit, который поспешил опубликовать клевету на Мюллера, отметился также "разоблачением" обвинений в адрес Роя Мура https://yakov-a-jerkov.livejournal.com/1394666.html?thread=47383530#t47383530
В 2017 сайт получил аккредитацию в Белом доме https://yakov-a-jerkov.livejournal.com/1640212.html?thread=59227924#t59227924
