Jim Carrey has some advice for special counsel Robert Mueller — Get a grip. And use it.

As Mueller continues his investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, actor/artist Carrey took to Twitter on Wednesday to unveil his latest work, portraying Trump as a squeeze toy, his face bloating and expanding from the pressure of Mueller’s clutch.

“Squeeze Mueller Squeeze!” Carrey wrote in accompaniment of the work, including a link to the voter registration site Vote.gov.

Carrey’s latest work came hours after Trump took to Twitter with his own, very different advice regarding the investigation.

On Wednesday, Trump posted a tweet saying that attorney general Jeff Sessions “should stop this Rigged Witch Hunt right now.”

The tweet went on to characterize Mueller as “totally conflicted.”

“This is a terrible situation and Attorney General Jeff Sessions should stop this Rigged Witch Hunt right now, before it continues to stain our country any further,” the tweet read. “Bob Mueller is totally conflicted, and his 17 Angry Democrats that are doing his dirty work are a disgrace to USA!”

During a press briefing Wednesday, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said that the suggestion that Sessions should stop Mueller’s probe was “not an order” but rather “the President’s opinion.”

“It’s not an order. It’s the President’s opinion. And it’s ridiculous that — all of the corruption and dishonesty that’s gone on with the launching of the witch hunt,” she said. “The President wants to — has watched this process play out, but he also wants to see it come to an end, as he stated many times. And we look forward to that happening.”
