45. Aside from the last sentence, what about it is untrue?

The fact that Democrats have had it out for him from day one does not legitimize his behavior. And we have been - for good reason.

Of course everything is under a cloud of partisan suspicion - things have been getting more partisan for years, and this is worse than I've seen it. Again - it does not legitimize his behavior - nor does it change fact into opinion or fake news. But the reality that the investigation is fact-based does not remove the partisan suspicion that it is not.
