In the context of the Mueller investigation, "Witch Hunt" is equivalent to "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain".

Posted by: DTravel on Jan 28, 10:54 in response to Buy BONDS xXx's post I'm sorry. Will somebody define "Witch Hunt?"...

Or if you prefer, Nixon's "Anything the President does is legal because he is the President".  It is just Person #1 trying to shore up his votes with his base by accusing "The Establishment" of persecuting him.

In a more general context it means it would generally mean starting an investigation into something simply in the hope of "catching" someone to justify the investigation and make the investegator look good.  Think Salem Witch Trials.
