Donald Trump has claimed that a secret cabal of deep state Democrats within the FBI rigged the bureaus investigation into Hillary Clinton thereby allowing her to escape accountability for violations of information-security protocol that should have landed her in prison even as said cabal orchestrated a WITCH HUNT into his campaigns nonexistent ties to Russian hacking, in a diabolical, anti-democratic bid to get Clinton elected.
In light of these (alternative) facts, the president maintains that the ongoing investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and his own alleged attempts to interfere with that investigation is so corrupt and baseless, it should be ended as soon as possible.
There are several reasons to question Trumps word on this subject. To name a few:
A new report from the Justice Departments inspector general found no evidence that the conclusions by department prosecutors in the Clinton email investigation were affected by bias or other improper considerations
Rather, we concluded that they were based on the prosecutors assessment of facts, the law, and past department practice.
The president is known liar who frequently, publicly admits that he likes to tell lies.
