According to him, “These people have the biggest conflicts of interests I’ve ever seen” citing the reason that they are “not looking and Hillary Clinton, the horrible things she did…They only keep looking at us. So, they find no collusion and then they go from there and say let’s keep going and they raid an office of a personal attorney early in the morning.

Moreover, Trump also expressed regret for appointing U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions to his position. He said Sessions made a “terrible mistake” when he recused himself from the Russia probe.

The President went on to say that he should have appointed a different person to serve as attorney general if Sessions told him that he will recuse himself.

Trump appears to be considering firing Mueller

Political observers noted that Trump was angry and frustrated with the FBI’s raid on Cohen. They speculated that the situation could prompt the President to firing Mueller.

In fact, when reporters asked him about terminating the Special Counsel, Trump responded, “Why don’t I just fire Mueller? Well, I think it’s a disgrace what’s going on. We’ll see what happens,” adding that many people told him that he should fire Mueller. “Again, they found nothing and in finding nothing, that’s a big statement,” he said.
