President Trump lashed out at Hillary Clinton on Thursday following the report on obstruction of justice investigation.
President Trump continues to tweet on Russia after the Washington Post’s recent revelation that special counsel has expanded the Russia investigation to include possible obstruction of justice by the president.
Trump took to Twitter Thursday afternoon, writing, “Why is that Hillary Clintons family and Dems dealings with Russia are not looked at, but my non-dealings are?"
Soon after, he tweeted, “Crooked H destroyed phones w/ hammer, 'bleached' emails, & had husband meet w/AG days before she was cleared- & they talk about obstruction?”
The president’s Twitter commentary regarding the growing scope of the probe actually began earlier.
Thursday morning he wrote, “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.”
About an hour later, he added, “You are witnessing the single greatest WITCH HUNT in American political history - led by some very bad and conflicted people! #MAGA”
The report that appears to have triggered the tweetstorm was posted to the Washington Post’s website on Wednesday evening.
In addition to revealing the inquiry into the president, it noted, “The move by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III to investigate Trump’s conduct marks a major turning point in the nearly year-old FBI investigation, which until recently focused on Russian meddling during the presidential campaign and on whether there was any coordination between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin. Investigators have also been looking for any evidence of possible financial crimes among Trump associates, officials said.”
