President Trump called the FBI raiding the office and hotel room of his personal lawyer Michael Cohen on Monday "a disgraceful situation" and "an attack on our country in a true sense."
The raid is a "whole new level of unfairness," Trump continued, and a "witch hunt." He also criticized Attorney General Jeff Sessions for recusing himself from the Russia probe, which ultimately led to the hiring of Mueller, and then mentioned multiple times that Hillary Clinton and her emails should be investigated again.
