Trump calls investigation- 2016 elections as witch hunt

Washington, May 18: US President Donald Trump has slammed the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, calling it yet again a "witch hunt" on the first anniversary of the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

"Congratulations America, we are now into the second year of the greatest Witch Hunt in American History... and there is still No Collusion and No Obstruction," Trump said on Thursday on Twitter.

"The only Collusion was that done by Democrats who were unable to win an Election despite the spending of far more money!" he added.

Trump said that Mueller's investigation, which is independent from the government, is part of a "witch hunt" by Democrats who still do not accept their defeat in the 2016 election and are trying to discredit his winning the presidency.
