Donald Trump: Obstruction Of Justice Allegations Part Of Witch Hunt

The FBI’s special counsel, Robert Mueller, is looking into whether Trump tried to quell the bureau’s investigation into his presidential campaign’s ties to Russia, according to The Washington Post.

Trump called the report “phony” and said the allegations amounted to “the single greatest witch hunt in American political history.”

They made up a phony collusion with the Russians story, found zero proof, so now they go for obstruction of justice on the phony story. Nice

I am just really glad that I don't live in tRump's version of 'reality'.

Seems to me that the 'single greatest WITCH HUNT' might have been in Salem 1692-1693.

It is an ongoing investigation and not all information gathered is public knowledge. Is he admitting that he has been involved in obstructing justice by getting personally involved in the review and analyses of information and evidence gathered pertaining to an ongoing investigation of himself and/or his campaign?
