Trump Tries To Pretend Like Everything Is Fine As Robert Mueller Closes In On Him

In a pool spray with reporters, Trump denied every new story out there with the Russia investigation and tried to pretend like everything is good as his presidency inches toward its reckoning.

Transcript of Trump and reporters in the Oval Office:

Reporter: Did you talk to him about it?

Trump: No, I didn’t. I’m not at all concerned. Thank you very much. No, he didn’t at all. He did not even a little bit. Nope. He’s going to do a good job.

Trump: Thanks, everyone.

Trump: We are looking at it. We’re looking at a lot of things.

Reporter: Are you concerned about leadership at the FBI?

Trump: Let’s see how it works out.

The White House is scared

Trump claims that he is not worried at all about Jeff Sessions talking to Mueller and that he never tried to pressure the FBI Director or Deputy Attorney General. Trump can say that he is not worried or that we’ll see how the leadership of the FBI plays out, but the reality is that this president and his administration are scared.

They are doing everything that they can think of to obstruct or shut down the Russia investigations. The Trump administration has been calling for a purge of the FBI for months, and is in the middle of hot war with the Bureau.

The Russia investigation is closer in on Trump, and there will soon be nowhere for him to hide as the nation will learn that all is definitely not well at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
