Donald Trump calls Mueller ‘conflicted’, ‘true never-Trumper’

TIL Desk/World/Washington/ US President Donald Trump slammed Special Counsel Robert Mueller as “highly conflicted”, a day after Mueller made his first-ever public statement saying that charging Trump with a crime was “not an option” due to Justice Department guidelines.

“After spending $40,000,000 over two dark years, with unlimited access, people, resources and cooperation, highly conflicted Robert Mueller would have brought charges, if he had ANYTHING, but there were no charges to bring.

“Russia, Russia, Russia! That’s all you heard at the beginning of this Witch Hunt Hoax…And now Russia has disappeared because I had nothing to do with Russia helping me to get elected. It was a crime that didn’t exist,” the US President tweeted, “Mueller didn’t find Obstruction either. Presidential Harassment!”

In the on-camera statement on Wednesday, Mueller explained that charging the president with a crime was “not an option” due to longstanding Justice Department policy which states that a sitting president cannot be charged with a crime.
