Donald Trump blasted his former campaign opponent on Wednesday for denying her role in paying for opposition research that grew into an election-year 'dirty dossier' full of salacious and unsubstantiated allegations against him.
'Don't forget Hillary Clinton totally denied this. She didn't know anything. She knew nothing,' Trump said in an interview with the Fox Business Network's 'Lou Dobbs Tonight' program.
'What I was amazed at – it's almost $6 million that they paid, and it's totally discredited. It's a total phony. I call it fake news. It's disgraceful. It's disgraceful.'
Campaign finance records show that the Clinton campaign paid a Washington law firm called Perkins Coie $5.6 million in legal fees from June 2015 to December 2016, and the Democratic National Committee paid another $3.6 million. The law firm was a pass-through, taking money from the campaign and the DNC and paying the opposition research Fusion GPS.
It's impossible to know how much of that money was earmarked for Fusion GPS's work on the now-discredited dossier.

Trump rips Hillary Clinton's campaign for role in Russia 'hoax' as he says Democrats paid nearly $6 million for phony dossier and are 'very embarrassed by it'..............
VIDEO AT LINK....................
I love President Trump fighting back like this. GO TRUMP GO
I could of come up with better stories for half that price.
Yep, and more believable!.................
Get going Sessions or RESIGN.
But, it’s not presidential! He said a republican. He said supposed to roll over, not make a peep, and go back to sleep like all republicans before him did.
To the Wicked Witch and the DNC the election is never over until they win.
And not a word of it from the corrupt MSM. All they’re talking about is “Republican civil war”, Jeff Flake and Bob Corker. Almost complete blackout.
... Or a new apartment for Chelsea.
As far as I can tell from Google | News | Sessions... our esteemed Attorney General Rip Van Sessions hasn’t woken up to even burp in the direction of this story.
Somebody should pour a bucket of ice water over his head.
Calling for a Sessions resignation is BLASPHEMY! to a lot of FReepers who think Jeff is biding his time before he bothers to enforce US law.
They will have to be dragged kicking, screaming and spitting to this story...................
Best Election Ever
Really downplaying the law firm, Perkins Coie. They are the major firm in the entire country. All Obama and Clinton lawyers come from there. Sometimes they are on both sides of the same issue. Just there getting rich.
btt
Me too, but what exactly is the crime?
Hiring someone to do opposition research isn't a crime.
The Russian Bribery case, that's a crime.
And where is Lying McLiarface???!!!
Nursing her LYING broken TOE??!!
If this was a movie script it would be rejected as too unbelievable!...............
How the hell do you untangle all of this?
