Trump Fumes In Ancticipation of Mueller Hearings

July 24, 2019 · 8:02 am ET · Leave a Comment

President Trump lashed out again this morning in frustration over former special counsel Robert Mueller’s testimony before Congress.

Said Trump: “So Democrats and others can illegally fabricate a crime, try pinning it on a very innocent President, and when he fights back against this illegal and treasonous attack on our Country, they call It Obstruction? Wrong! Why didn’t Robert Mueller investigate the investigators?”

He then suggested that he had a say in the format of the hearings: “It was NEVER agreed that Robert Mueller could use one of his many Democrat Never Trumper lawyers to sit next to him and help him with his answers. This was specifically NOT agreed to, and I would NEVER have agreed to it. The Greatest Witch Hunt in U.S. history, by far!”
