ROBERT MUELLER/RUSSIA INVESTIGATION/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “President Donald Trump said Monday [3-25-19] that he believes Robert Mueller acted honorably during his Russia probe — seemingly reversing nearly two years of verbal attacks on the special counsel. Trump, after giving a prepared statement with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, was asked whether Mueller acted honorably throughout his investigation into whether Russia colluded with Trump’s presidential campaign…Trump for nearly two years has consistently criticized Mueller, claiming his probe is a ‘witch hunt’ and that Mueller’s team is composed of ‘13 angry Democrats.’ Late last year, Trump offered one of his sharpest attacks, tweeting that the special counsel’s team was a “disgrace to our Nation’…Attorney General William Barr on Sunday released a 4-page summary of Mueller’s report which concludes Trump’s presidential campaign did not collude with Russia. Barr’s summary also states that he does not believe there is enough evidence that Trump obstructed justice.”
