“Time is running out. Get tough and move quickly, or it will be too late,” the president tweeted.
President Donald Trump is appealing directly to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in his push for Congress to more aggressively investigate the origins of the 2016 Russia investigation.
Trump’s plea to McConnell (R-Ky.) comes after Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) swiftly rejected Trump’s calls for the panel to haul in former President Barack Obama for testimony about the FBI’s handling of the investigation into former national security adviser Michael Flynn.
“Mitch, I love you, but this is 100% true,” the president tweeted Saturday morning in response to a pro-Trump commentator urging McConnell to more fully embrace their push to go after Trump’s predecessor and former Obama administration officials.
“Time is running out. Get tough and move quickly, or it will be too late. The Dems are vicious, but got caught,” added Trump, who has asserted without evidence that Obama acted improperly. “They MUST pay a big price for what they have done to our Country. Don’t let them get away with this!”
In a separate tweet, Trump wrote: “The Republicans must play by the same rules, or die!”
