Washington – US President Donald Trump lashed out Thursday at the investigation into his campaign’s ties to Russia, calling it “the single greatest witch hunt of a politician in American history!”
His remarks on Twitter came hours after the Justice Department appointed ex-FBI director Robert Mueller as special counsel to head the investigation into Russian meddling in the presidential election.
“With all of the illegal acts that took place in the Clinton campaign & Obama Administration, there was never a special councel appointed!” Trump tweeted.
