President Donald Trump boasted Sunday that Special Counsel Robert Mueller's 22-month Russia probe ended with a 'complete exoneration,' slamming the entire operation as 'an illegal takedown that failed' and saying he hopes 'somebody is going to be looking at the other side.
To be honest, it's a shame that your president has had to go through this,' Trump said in West Palm Beach, Florida before he boarded Air Force One to return to Washington D.C.Trump called the concept that his 2016 campaign aides would collude with agents of Russia the 'most ridiculous thing I've ever heard,' and claimed the Mueller probe was illegal, an argument he has long made.
So a complete exoneration, no collusion, no obstruction,' Trump emphasized.
'The Special Counsel's investigation did not find that the Trump campaign or anyone associated with it conspired or coordinated with Russia in its efforts to influence the 2016 U.S. presidential election,' the letter states.
Mueller also examined the infamous Trump Tower meeting in June of 2016 when then-campaign manager Paul Manafort, Donald Trump Jr. and Jared Kushner met with a lawyer with ties to the Kremlin who claimed to have information on Hillary Clinton's campaign.
Trump Jr. slammed the investigation, which entangled him, his siblings and the Trump Organization, in a statement.
Mueller and his wife were spotted at St. John's Episcopal Church, the yellow stucco house of worship across Lafayette Park from the White House where President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump attended service last Sunday.
