President Trump went on a tweetstorm Thursday to condemn the naming of a special counsel to investigate whether his campaign officials colluded with the Russians during the election as a “witch hunt.”

“This is the single greatest witch hunt of a politician in American history!,” the president wrote on Twitter.

“With all of the illegal acts that took place in the Clinton campaign & Obama Administration, there was never a special councel appointed!​,” he wrote, misspelling counsel. ​

Several hours later the post was replaced with ​the​ correct spelling​ of the word​.

Trump’s comments come the morning after the Department of Justice appointed former FBI Director Robert Mueller as special counsel to investigate Russian interference in the 2016 election and whether the president’s campaign operatives colluded with Moscow.

In a statement Wednesday evening, the White House said the investigation would find no evidence of collusion.

​”​As I have stated many times, a thorough investigation will confirm what we already know – there was no collusion between my campaign and any foreign entity,” Trump said in a statement. “I look forward to this matter concluding quickly​.”

Democrats, meanwhile, lambasted Trump’s tweet about being the victim of a witch hunt.

“No donald, that would be YOUR 5-year witch hunt perpetrating racist lie that @BarackObama not born in U.S.,” wrote Brooklyn Rep. Hakeem Jeffries.

Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) responded, “This is a truth hunt.”
