Following a Tweet in which President Donald Trump called on Attorney General Jeff Sessions to pull the plug on the “Rigged Witch Hunt” before it “stain[s] our country further,” the Commander-in-Chief posted another social media dispatch. And in it, he seethed about being left in the dark on investigation into his former campaign manager, Paul Manafort.

“Paul Manafort worked for Ronald Reagan, Bob Dole and many other highly prominent and respected political leaders,” Trump wrote. “He worked for me for a very short time. Why didn’t government tell me that he was under investigation. These old charges have nothing to do with Collusion – a Hoax!”
