Trump often goes after Democrats and accuses them of obstruction.

His tweet on Tuesday came after Trump shared a report from "Fox and Friends" that said the White House "calls out Senate Democrats for obstructing nominees."

Last month, Trump tweeted that obstruction "doesn't work" and encouraged Democrats to work together with Republicans on issues such as healthcare, tax cuts and security.

In the past, he has called the Democrats the "party of obstruction" and claimed they are not doing what is best for the country.

The president’s focus on nominees comes amid new reports that his son Donald Trump Jr. met with a lawyer connected to the Kremlin during the presidential campaign.
