President Donald Trump criticized Democrats and former Special Counsel Robert Mueller on Wednesday, slamming the former FBI director being allowed to appear with an aide when he testifies before Congress on Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
“It was NEVER agreed that Robert Mueller could use one of his many Democrat Never Trumper lawyers to sit next to him and help him with his answers,” Trump tweeted Wednesday. “This was specifically NOT agreed to, and I would NEVER have agreed to it.”
