President Trump continued to lash out against Special Counsel Robert Mueller on Monday, suggesting that no one should cooperate with him and that those who "make up lies" deserve to go to prison.

Trump demanded jail time for his former attorney, Michael Cohen, who pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations and to lying to Congress in relation to his work with Trump. Trump insisted that Cohen, who has reportedly spoken with Mueller's team for over 70 hours, "makes up stories," adding that he "lied for this outcome and should, in my opinion, serve a full and complete sentence."

“Michael Cohen asks judge for no Prison Time.” You mean he can do all of the TERRIBLE, unrelated to Trump, things having to do with fraud, big loans, Taxis, etc., and not serve a long prison term? He makes up stories to get a GREAT & ALREADY reduced deal for himself, and get..... — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 3, 2018

Not long after, Trump offered a very different assessment of political consultant Roger Stone, who said Sunday he will never testify against Trump because he would have to "make things up" to do so. Stone, Trump wrote, is "essentially stating that he will not be forced by a rogue and out of control prosecutor to make up lies and stories" about him. The president added that Stone has "guts!" CNN's Manu Raju observed that Trump is offering a "big signal here" that he could pardon Stone and is "encouraging him not to cooperate." Meanwhile, George Conway, White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway's husband, suggested this tweet is example of witness tampering.

Trump's tweetstorm continued as he wrote that Mueller is "a much different man than people think" and does not "want the truth," only "lies." Brendan Morrow
