Fox News exclusive: Trump accuses Dems of creating a 'phony crime,' calls Mueller investigation a 'treason' and 'high crime'
Following former Special Counsel Robert Mueller's testimony on Capitol Hill on Wednesday, President Trump accused Democrats of creating a "phony crime" by alleging he committed obstruction of justice in the Russia investigation. "I didn't do it. They create a phony crime," Trump said during an exclusive interview Thursday night with Sean Hannity. "And then, they say, 'He obstructed.' They said there was no collusion but 'He obstructed,' and there has never been anything like this ever in this country." During the interview, Trump reiterated his desire to "investigate the investigators" over the origins of the Russia probe and said Attorney General William Barr would be "looking into it." Though Mueller's probe did not reach a conclusion of whether Trump committed a crime, the president is no fan of the investigation, calling it a high crime, treason and a "disgrace to our country."
