Donald Trump calls Mueller investigation 'an illegal takedown that failed' says that he has been exonerated
In addition to a Sunday afternoon tweet following the release of a summary of the Mueller investigation from Attorney General William Barr, President Donald Trump made his first public comments about the completion of the investigation before boarding Air Force One.
“It’s a shame that our country had to go through this," said Trump. "To be honest, it’s a shame that your president has had to go through this.” Trump also expressed hope"somebody is gonna look at the other side," following comments where he stated the"other side" had been ignored during Mueller's investigation.
According to Barr's letter, the Special Counsel's report said"while this report does not conclude that the president committed a crime, it does not exonerate him."
