Robert Mueller landed on Fortune’s 'World's Greatest Leaders' list.

Special counsel Robert Mueller landed on Fortune's 'World's Greatest Leaders' list.  He's ranked at number three, just behind Bill and Melinda Gates and New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern. Fortune noted that, in agreeing to investigate Russian interference in 2016 election and the Trump campaign's possible involvement in that effort, "Mueller took on a thankless task with dignity, integrity, a willingness to sacrifice his own reputation for a cause, and an unflinching commitment to the rule of law."  "He proved the country's institutions still work, even in the face of unprecedented political turmoil. That's unquestionably good for the country," the publication also stated. One person who likely does not agree with that assessment is President Trump, who has frequently called Mueller's intentions and integrity into question.  For instance, the president wrote in a November tweet, "The Fake News Media builds Bob Mueller up as a Saint, when in actuality he is the exact opposite. He is doing TREMENDOUS damage to our Criminal Justice System, where he is only looking at one side and not the other. Heroes will come of this, and it won't be Mueller."
