In his Saturday tweets, the president repeated his claim that Robert Mueller's investigation was run by “13 Angry Trump hating Dems,” and called the probe a “total waste of time”
But as Barr’s self-imposed deadline to submit a copy of Mueller’s report to Capitol Hill fast approaches, Trump’s confidence in its “complete and total exoneration” of him has waned, according to one Republican close to the White House.
“He wouldn’t be bringing this up still if everything was hunky dory,” this person said, referring to the president’s tweets about Mueller and his team of federal investigators. White House officials, Trump campaign aides and Republican lawmakers have all cited Barr’s four-page summary of the special counsel’s conclusions as an exoneration of Trump, who was cleared of conspiracy with Russia to sway the 2016 presidential election and did not face obstruction of justice charges due to insufficient evidence, according to Barr.
“I have not read the Mueller Report yet… Only know the conclusions, and on the big one, No Collusion,” Trump wrote on Twitter, hours before he was set to address a crowd of supporters and deep-pocketed GOP donors at the annual Republican Jewish Coalition summit in Las Vegas. In separate reports late Wednesday, both The New York Times and The Washington Post described a band of investigators who believed the results of their probe into the president and his associates were far more damaging than Trump’s attorney general made them out to be.
