After the Mueller report was released Sunday afternoon, President Trump briefly chatted with reporters as he prepared to head back to Washington.

He says he hopes someone looks into the “illegal takedown that failed.”

President Trump: "It was just announced there was no collusion with Russia, the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. There was no collusion with Russia, there was no obstruction" "Hopefully someone is going to look at the other side, this was an illegal takedown that failed" pic.twitter.com/YUEqCexrbb — Ryan Saavedra (@RealSaavedra) March 24, 2019

President Trump:

“After a long investigation, after so many people have been badly hurt, after not looking at the other side, where a lot of bad things happened, a lot of horrible things happened, a lot of very bad things happened for our country, it was just announced there was no collusion with Russia. The most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. There was no collusion with Russia. There was no obstruction and none whatsoever. And it was a complete and total exoneration. It’s a shame that our country had to go through this. To be honest, it’s a shame that your president has had to go through this. Before I even got elected, it began, and it began illegally. And hopefully, somebody’s going to look at the other side. This was an illegal takedown that failed.”

We’re sure Rep. Nadler and Rep. Schiff are going to get right on that one.
