Trump Says His First Two Years Were ‘Stollen’

May 5, 2019 · 7:34 pm ET · Leave a Comment

President Trump on Sunday “floated the idea of extending his constitutionally limited time in office, complaining online that two years of his first White House term were ‘stollen’ as a result of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation,” Politico reports.

He retweeted a message from Jerry Falwell Jr., who said: “I now support reparations — Trump should have 2 yrs added to his 1st term as pay back for time stolen by this corrupt failed coup.”

Trump added: “Despite the tremendous success that I have had as President, including perhaps the greatest economy and most successful first two years of any President in history, they have stollen two years of my (our) Presidency (Collusion Delusion) that we will never be able to get back.”
