Trump Goes After Mueller Team in Tweetstorm: ‘Does Anyone Think This Is Fair?’
President Trump went after James Comey, Andrew McCabe, and Robert Mueller‘s team in a tweetstorm this morning.
Friday night McCabe was fired by Jeff Sessions, and just yesterday Comey tweeted this to the President:
Mr. President, the American people will hear my story very soon. And they can judge for themselves who is honorable and who is not.

This morning, Fox & Friends noted Comey’s tweet before bringing comments Andrew McCabe made in his post-firing statement, followed by what James Comey said under oath, concluding that “somebody’s lying.”
Which led to…
Wow, watch Comey lie under oath to Senator G when asked “have you ever been an anonymous source…or known someone else to be an anonymous source…?” He said strongly “never, no.” He lied as shown clearly on @foxandfriends.

News broke yesterday not only of Andrew McCabe having notes, but of those notes now being in the possession of Robert Mueller.
Trump claimed that he never saw McCabe taking notes when they met and suspected that the memos may only have been to “help his own agenda,” while doing a riff on “Fake News”:
Spent very little time with Andrew McCabe, but he never took notes when he was with me. I don’t believe he made memos except to help his own agenda, probably at a later date. Same with lying James Comey. Can we call them Fake Memos?

And then the President once again sent out a tweet mentioning Mueller by name, asking rather directly “Does anyone think this is fair?”
Why does the Mueller team have 13 hardened Democrats, some big Crooked Hillary supporters, and Zero Republicans? Another Dem recently added…does anyone think this is fair? And yet, there is NO COLLUSION!
