Trump: Mueller Probe Is Not Allowed Under The Law

President Broken Record is playing his scratchy vinyl again:



President Trump on Sunday reiterated his claim that special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into possible collusion between his campaign and Russia during the 2016 election is illegal. Trump has regularly denounced Mueller’s investigation as a “witch hunt” driven by political motivations to undermine his presidency.

On Thursday, he called the investigation “illegal” in an interview with Bloomberg News, pointing to “great scholars” who said “there never should have been a special counsel.” Speculation has mounted over whether Trump may attempt to fire Mueller or his Attorney General Jeff Sessions, though the president has been advised against doing so.
