In a new interview with his favorite cable TV network, President Donald Trump was adamant that “the people won’t stand for it” if a report delivered by Special Counsel Robert Mueller makes him look bad. “It’s always interesting to me because a deputy who didn’t get any votes appoints a man who didn’t get any votes, he’s gonna write a report on me,” Trump told Fox Business Network, referring to Robert Mueller and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. “I had one of the greatest election victories in history, wouldn’t you say that’s right?” he then asked host Maria Bartiromo, who nodded her head and responded “Yes, absolutely.” Trump then went on to describe the voters. “They came from the valleys, they came from the rivers, they came from the cities, they came from all over.” After blaming all of people involved in investigation, he said, “With all of that being said, for two years we’ve gone through this nonsense–cause there’s no collusion with Russia and you know that better than anybody.”
