Donald Trump tweet

Trump tweeted Monday about Robert Mueller's investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

He said: "The 13 Angry Democrats in charge of the Russian Witch Hunt are starting to find out that there is a Court System in place that actually protects people from injustice...and just wait 'till the Courts get to see your unrevealed Conflicts of Interest!"

Trump applauded Friday when a federal judge questioned Mueller's authority in a case against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort.

Mueller is a Republican. Some members of his team contributed to Democrats.
