'Disgusting Witch Hunt': Trump Resumes Attack On Mueller Probe A Day After Midterms
- 5 years ago
President Trump on Wednesday resumed his attack on the Mueller probe.
Less than 24 hours after midterm elections, President Trump resumed his attack on special counsel Robert Mueller's probe into Russia's interference in the 2016 presidential election.
"According to NBC News, Voters Nationwide Disapprove of the so-called Mueller Investigation (46%) more than they Approve (41%). You mean they are finally beginning to understand what a disgusting Witch Hunt, led by 17 Angry Democrats, is all about!" Trump wrote on Twitter Wednesday.
This is not the first time he's dismissed the Russia probe as a "witch hunt."
"Despite the disgusting, illegal and unwarranted Witch Hunt, we have had the most successful first 17 month Administration in U.S. history - by far! Sorry to the Fake News Media and 'Haters,' but that's the way it is!" Trump tweeted earlier this year.
Back in May, the Senate Intelligence Committee leaders said in a joint statement that the panel agreed with the U.S. intelligence community's assessment that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election "for the purpose of helping Donald Trump and hurting Hillary Clinton."
