Trump has been critical of Attorney General Jeff Sessions for recusing himself from the probe, leaving oversight to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.
In the interview, Trump blamed the investigation for hampering his efforts to strengthen the countrys relationship with Russia and for sowing discord among the American public.
He again neglected to blame Russia for interfering in the 2016 election, a conclusion reached by the U.S. intelligence community.
The probe, he said, played right into the Russians if it was Russia they played right into the Russians hands.

Honestly half the crap that oozes out of his mouth can be paraphrased as 'I know you are, but what am I?'

REPORTER (Jeff Mason from Reuters): President Putin, did you want President Trump to win the election and did you direct any of your officials to help him do that?
PUTIN: Yes, I did. Yes, I did. Because he talked about bringing the US/Russia relationship back to normal.
