Trump Urges Investigation of the ‘Other Side’

February 24, 2018 · 10:47 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Saying there were “no phone calls, no meetings, no collusion,” President Trump on Saturday pushed for an investigation of “the other side” amid the FBI probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election, while claiming “we need intelligence that brings our country together,” Politico reports.

Said Trump: “A lot of bad things happened on the other side, not on this side, but on the other side. And somebody should look into it, because what they did is really fraudulent and somebody should be looking into that and by somebody, I’m talking about you know who.”
