Howard Dean said Sunday that President Trump Donald John TrumpBiden leads Trump by 36 points nationally among Latinos: poll Trump dismisses climate change role in fires, says Newsom needs to manage forest better Jimmy Kimmel hits Trump for rallies while hosting Emmy Awards MORE's response to a recently released Democratic memo that defends the FBI proves he "can't grasp that the office is about all Americans, not only his side."

The former Vermont governor and chairman of the Democratic National Committee was responding to Trump's recent comments that the Democrats, in new information, only proved the FBI abused a surveillance program in 2016, as was alleged in a GOP memo released previously.

“This is the biggest reason Trumps Presidency is a complete failure. He can't grasp that the office is about all Americans, not only his side,” Dean tweeted.

The Democrat memo response on government surveillance abuses is a total political and legal BUST. Just confirms all of the terrible things that were done. SO ILLEGAL! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 24, 2018

On Saturday, Democrats released a memo in response to one released a few weeks ago by Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee that alleged the FBI and Justice Department abused their power to spy on a former Trump aide.

"A lot of bad things happened on the other side, not on this side, but the other side,” Trump told Fox News host Jeanine Pirro on Saturday night.

“And somebody should look into it because what they did was really fraudulent," he said.

Trump told Pirro that the Democrats didn’t push too hard for their own memo to be released because it only verified what the Republican memo said.

Trump initially blocked the Democratic memo from being released, citing concerns from the FBI and Justice Department that it would reveal classified information. Similar concerns had been expressed about the Republican memo.

The Democrats say the memo, which was based on the same classified material as the GOP one, adds context to the process by which the FBI and DOJ officials obtained a warrant to spy on Carter Page, who was a member of Trump's campaign.

The Democratic-compiled memo claims the FBI had enough information to support its application without relying on the controversial evidence the GOP claims was used.
