President Trump on Wednesday defended sharing an image on Twitter showing Deputy Attorney General Rod and along with Trump critics behind bars.
When asked in a interview with The New York Post why he shared the image of Rosenstein behind bars, Trump said: “He should have never picked a special counsel.”
Earlier on Wednesday, Trump shared an image tweeted by a pro-Trump Twitter feed calling for his opponents to face trial for "treason,” with many of them behind bards.
The image also depicts former Presidents Clinton and Obama, Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Loretta Lynch, John Podesta, Huma Abedin, Eric Holder, James Clapper, Special Counsel Robert Mueller, along with Rosenstein.
Rosenstein appointed Mueller to lead the investigation into Russian election meddling and possible collusion between Trump’s presidential campaign and Russia after former Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from the probe.
Trump has repeatedly lashed out against Mueller’s probe throughout his presidency, calling it a “witch hunt.”
In the interview, Trump declined to answer whether he plans to fire Rosenstein but defended his firing of former FBI Director James Comey.
“Thank God I fired Comey,” Trump said. “Because if I didn’t fire Comey, we wouldn’t know about [Andrew] McCabe, we wouldn’t know about [Peter] Strzok and his lover Lisa Page.”
Strzok and Page while working for the FBI sent each other texts critical of Trump. McCabe was fired earlier this year from his position as deputy attorney general over a lack of candor with federal investigators.
I’d just as soon see the lot of them behind bars. Fat chance.
Oh my. Liberal heads will be exploding.
drain the pus
JOHN BRENNAN!
This man is fearless!
True enough.
He’s kicked it up a notch since he booted Magoo.
It’s starting to feel like this is all finally coming to a head.
The President has the power to fire rosenstein. The acting attorney general has the power to fire Rosenstien. Why hasn’t he been fired? We were waiting until after the midterms. It’s after the midterms. rosenstein is still collecting a big fat paycheck signed by us. WTF is he still doing there? Enough already, we the people have given the biggest hammer, use it.
The Keebler Elf?
Rosenstein is a white hat. He has flipped and is helping MAGA.
LOL!
HOORAY President Donald J. Trump. MAGA / rule-of-law BUMP!
Starting to feel like Lucy’s football. It’s been two years and statutes of limitations aren’t on side here.
Also, mid-terms are over.
Arrests now!!
Maybe Rosenstein is cooperating with the investigation.
