President Trump took the stage less than a week after AG William Barr released a summary of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report.
At a campaign rally in Michigan Thursday night, the president attacked Democrats for "defrauding" the public with investigations of his campaign and finances.Nicholas Kamm / AFP - Getty ImagesGet breaking news alerts and special reports.

“The Russia witch hunt was a plan by those who lost the election to try and illegally gain power by framing innocent Americans,” Trump continued, calling the investigation “an elaborate hoax” and a “sinister effort to undermine our historical election.” Trump repeated his frequent attacks against the news media, claiming that they had joined forces with the Democratic Party and the “deep state” to “overturn the results of the 2016 election" but that that those efforts"have failed.”
Trump's declaration of victory Thursday came in a state that was one of his biggest 2016 wins. In one of the most unexpected results of the presidential election, Trump won Michigan by three-tenths of a percentage point — or 10,704 votes — becoming the first Republican to carry the state since 1988 and delivering a devastating blow to Democrats in the process.
