Trump Says Hes Very Frustrated He Cant Order DOJ, FBI To Go After Hillary Clinton
The saddest thing is that because Im the president of the United States, I am not supposed to be involved with the Justice Department. Im not supposed to be involved with the FBI.
President Donald Trump said he would love to send the Justice Department and FBI after former rival Hillary Clinton, and is very frustrated that he cant.
During an interview on Thursday, conservative radio host Larry OConnor of WMAL in Washington told Trump that his callers wanted to see an investigation into the 7-year-old Uranium One deal. Back in 2010, when Clinton was secretary of state, a Russian nuclear energy firm bought a controlling interest in Uranium One. Since then, the deal has become a major talking point in conservative media.
Trump lamented:
But you know the saddest thing is that because Im the president of the United States, I am not supposed to be involved with the Justice Department. Im not supposed to be involved with the FBI. Im not supposed to be doing the kind of things that I would love to be doing. And Im very frustrated by it.

works. He campaigned on putting Hillary in prison and now he cannot make it happen.
