President Trump suggested the Justice Department should look into former FBI Director James Comey’s investigation into Hillary Clinton, asking if there was “obviously a fix?” because he “lied and leaked” to protect her.

​

“​Wow, FBI confirms report that James Comey drafted letter exonerating Crooked Hillary Clinton long before investigation was complete​,” Trump wrote on Twitter early Wednesday. “Many people not interviewed, including Clinton herself. Comey stated under oath that he didn’t do this​ ​-​ ​obviously a fix? Where is Justice Dept?​”​

About an hour later, Trump accused Comey of lying to protect Clinton.

“As it has turned out, James Comey lied and leaked and totally protected Hillary Clinton. He was the best thing that ever happened to her!” he wrote.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions also tore into Comey during an appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee and defended Trump’s firing of him.

“I don’t think it’s been fully understood the significance of the error Mr. Comey made on the Clinton matter,” he said, referring to the investigation into Clinton’s use of a private email server when she was secretary of state.

In May, the president fired Comey, who was overseeing the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election and whether any Trump campaign associates colluded with the Kremlin.

But Sessions told the Senate panel that he could not discuss any conversations he had with Trump or that the president even mentioned the Russia probe as a reason for firing Comey.

“I can neither assert executive privilege, nor can I disclose today the content of my confidential conversations with the president,” Sessions said​ in his opening remarks.​

The FBI on Monday released a document that shows Comey began drafting the statement clearing Clinton in May 2016.

But it wasn’t until July 2016 that he announced that the FBI would not recommend charges against Clinton, who was interviewed just three days before.

​Clinton has a different view of her relationship with Comey, claiming he is part of the reason she lost the election to Trump.

She has told interviewers that “yeah, he did shiv me” when Comey reopened the investigation into her email server just 11 days before the election.
