President Trump on Wednesday used his Twitter account to promote a false claim on immigration, and retweeted a post from a pro-Trump account that calls for deputy attorney general Rod Rosenstein, former law enforcement officials and other political opponents of the president to be put on trial for ‘treason.’
Minutes after tweeting, without evidence, that special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigators are “viciously telling witnesses to lie about facts,” the president began a series of retweets of the account ‘@The_Trump_Train.’
Among the retweets was a graphic showing multiple individuals the president has targeted in his comments against the Russia investigation, including Mueller, former President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and former FBI director James Comey.
