Trump tears into House Democrats' corruption probe: They've 'gone stone cold CRAZY'

“Public approval of President Trump’s handling of the economy has hit a new high as the soaring economy continues to lift up American workers.”Yet simultaneously, Trump’s presidency has never before felt so under attack.The report by special investigator Robert Mueller could arrive any day, just as House Democrats begin to zero in on Trump’s family, former top White House officials, and former campaign and transition aides. I am surprised it has not been more pronounced,” said one Republican close to the White House.Given Trump’s modest agenda, the mounting investigations — combined with his own sense of persecution — are increasingly defining his presidency. “So what the Democrats want to do — they cannot stand the loss, they could not stand losing in 2016.”Trump aides and advisers believe the Democrats will offer an excellent foil for him — especially thanks to rising socialist sentiment on the left that he hopes to exploit as a campaign theme.Trump can’t simply shrug off newly empowered House Democrats, and the White House is still figuring out how to respond to their bevy of inquiries both politically and logistically.A former Trump campaign official argued that it is House Democrats who are in trouble, painting their investigative moves as an overreach — a recurring theme among White House aides. And many aides do not want to get involved in investigations and subpoenas, fearful of potential legal bills and focusing instead on doing their political or policy work for the administration.Fighting back against the various investigations is the purview of the White House Counsel’s office, outside political groups, and the president himself, said one Republican close to the White House.Trump introduced many of the themes for his line of attacks in his Tuesday morning tweets and comments during a signing ceremony at the White House.“Now that they realize the only Collusion with Russia was done by Crooked Hillary Clinton & the Democrats, Nadler, Schiff and the Dem heads of the Committees have gone stone cold CRAZY,” Trump tweeted, providing no evidence for his repeated accusation about Clinton.He claimed that the 81 individuals and entities House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler sent letters to on Monday as part of a wide-reaching examination of possible corruption all over Trumpworld were all “innocent” and that Democrats were only looking “to harass them,” perhaps unintentionally lumping his estranged former lawyer Michael Cohen in with that group.“The witch hunt continues.
