President Trump doubled down on his call for the Justice Department to investigate Democrats on Friday after a former Democratic National Committee chair acknowledged the party tipped the scales in Hilary Clinton's favor during last year's primary.
Trump told reporters outside the White House that he is disappointed in the Justice Department for not investigating Clinton, reiterating that he believes the agency should do something.
Im really not involved with the Justice Department. Id like to let it run itself, but honestly, they should be looking at the Democrats," he said.
They should be looking at Podesta and all of that dishonesty, they should be looking at a lot of things, and a lot of people are disappointed in the Justice Department, including me, he said.
In an excerpt of her new book, former DNC chairwoman Donna Brazile wrote about a deal between Clintons 2016 campaign and the DNC aimed at keeping the party financially viable.
The deal wasn't illegal, Brazile wrote, but it "sure looked unethical." The former DNC chair said it broke [her] heart to find proof that the primary between Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) was rigged.
Trump has tweeted several times about the Democratic deal since an excerpt of Braziles book was published by Politico on Thursday, calling it illegal and bringing back his nickname for Clinton, Crooked Hillary.
GET OFF YOUR A$$ AND DO YOUR JOB !
Fire Sessions & Mueller and GET SOMEONE WITH A SET TO DRAIN THE SWAMP!
Christ almighty....
And his assistant’s...Get some folks in there who want to take care of business!!
Every Trump guy that has been telling us for months that Trump plays 3D chess with us, really think Jeff is this much of a swamp creature? I am starting to have more faith in Trump and his abilities, while the people I thought did not see how much a rino Trump was during the primary, were not really seeing him.
Trump's election was not about liberal vs. conservative(something I figured out toward the end of the primaries) like every other election I have ever paid attention to since Carter..... it was USA vs GOLOBALISM.
Do you not see how many spooks and generals Trump surrounded himself with from the beginning or how incredibly, fantastically, stupendously unusual that was(I have never seen that before)???? It was a full footing war cabinet, some of his guys, there are not even pictures of. He was at war before he walked into that Oval Office....ask yourself with who?
No, I do not believe Sessions is not doing his job. I believe he is needed for something later(a calming influence after the storm?) and is getting his house in order. No, I do not believe Mueller is going after Trump. Trump interviewed him for a job he was not eligible for, in the White House, the day before he was appointed Special Counselor. I think the Trump White House has been providing all kinds of distractions for the media with all the craziness and "leaks" but we hear absolutely no leaks about important things and military things getting accomplished. I am the one starting to believe in Trump 4D chess.
This all demonstrated Jeff Sessions has no honor
What we are asking for on Uranium One is to take down major political players from the Top of both parties for treason. FOR TREASON.....let that sink in. Do you really think that is going to happen in our court system or the military court system?????
I really want that answered by someone who knows.
Well, Mr. President, if you’re so disappointed, why don’t you do something about it? Last time I checked, you were their boss.
Stan, You got a plan?
There is no good solution to this problem. If Trump fires Sessions and/or Rosenstein the Democrats left in DOJ will run the place for a year or more as the Senate stalls on confirmations. That won’t be any better than what we’ve got now. Guaranteed.
Bravo, ex91B10!!!
You said it perfectly.
We did in fact elect President Trump to DRAIN THE SWAMP!!
Sessions and Mueller obviously are indigenous creatures of thee SWAMP AND BOTH NEED TO BE FIRED!!!
Trump is probably trying to create a public perception of inaction at the DOJ in order to conceal the action really going on at the DOJ. This is “Art of War” stuff.
Sorry, you are dreaming. The Democrats and careerist Never Trumpers in the DOJ are doing no MAGA. Guaranteed.
I agree with your assessment. Remember Trump comes from the entertainment business too, not just commercial real estate. This is all a show and psy ops, in my opinion.
OK, we will see how things play out.
“I think it’s all a staged act (Trump’s ‘outrage’ over DOJ).”
I hope you’re correct, and that it’s just theater. I hope they surprise all of us by holding a 20-person perp walk one of these days. If that could happen on 11/8/17, it would make our celebration of the election 1,000 times sweeter.
Sessions has recused himself from anything to do with Russian..including Uranium One
He has his own problems on Russia via Papadapolous ( who has to cooperate throughout duration) Sam Clovis, Carter Page, and JD Gordon
YES!!!! I was going to ask if anyone could photoshop a Sessions milk carton!
SAVED!
Yes, I think that is referred to as the bare minimum.
I did not address whether it was enough, just that it was something.
The Senate is not the people who have something on him. But the Clinton machine is still very powerful.
One more thing. Not a single democrat voted for Sessions for AG......If they had something on him they could control Sessions on they would have voted for him.
Meanwhile, 10 Senators GOPers voted for Lynch. If you’re looking for the big problem inside the beltway it isn’t in the DOJ. It’s on the The Hill. The progressive corportist wing of the GOP controls the agenda and they have no wish to MAGA.
What lends some credence to your post is that President Trump has a well-established track record of posting Twitter comments and “complaints” about things that aren’t even within the purview of the target of his message. The DNC, for example, could rig their primary process from top to bottom and turn it into a complete farce ... and there’s nothing about it that would warrant a criminal investigation. The NFL is another example. Who the hell cares if they mismanage and destroy their own business?
It's almost like he read my post here on FR!
It’s very frustrating. A lot of psywar from the Dems and Never Trumpers trying to tear our morale/support for Trump down so they can seize the agenda. Can’t let that happen. MAGA.
