Trump Goes After ‘Crooked H’ on Twitter: What About Her Russian Dealings?
President Trump has once again taken to Twitter to ask why there aren’t investigations into Hillary Clinton and the Democrats’ links to Russia:
Why is that Hillary Clintons family and Dems dealings with Russia are not looked at, but my non-dealings are?
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 15, 2017
And he also called her “Crooked H”:
Crooked H destroyed phones w/ hammer, 'bleached' emails, & had husband meet w/AG days before she was cleared- & they talk about obstruction?
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 15, 2017
Trump is referring to the report that special counsel Robert Muller is investigating him for potential obstruction––he earlier tweeted, “They made up a phony collusion with the Russians story, found zero proof, so now they go for obstruction of justice on the phony story. Nice.”
This is not the first time Trump has tweeted out those above sentiments about Hillary Clinton:
What about all of the contact with the Clinton campaign and the Russians? Also, is it true that the DNC would not let the FBI in to look?

And, of course, the media was immediately all over this today:
WH now officially not commenting on Russia, even as POTUS continues to issue Tweets on the topic: https://t.co/ubR0fNOWxe

There are a lot of answers, but the first that comes to mind: Because you won the election and are president. https://t.co/7sVWAcvlCA

It would sound so weird if other pols did this. Like, imagine Pat Toomey asking why the media isn't investigating Katie McGinty. https://t.co/lOobxaXH4k

I recall you said you'd appoint a special prosecutor to investigate her, but then you didn't. Sad! https://t.co/7XnwIDhTbH

I wish there was a Republican president and attorney general to investigate Crooked Hillary

Just woke up from my nap. Did I somehow end up in October 2016? https://t.co/JCsH5S82xE
