Trump Lashes Out At Dems Ahead Of Comey Hearing: “Russia Story Is FAKE NEWS And Everyone Knows It”

Later this morning, James Comey and others from the FBI and NSA will testify before the House Intelligence Committee on their investigation into the alleged ties between President Trump’s campaign and Russia (we previewed the hearing earlier here). But Trump decided to begin his assault before the hearing even got underway with another earlier morning tweet storm that is sure to cause yet another Mika meltdown.
In a pair of tweets, Trump blasted Democrats for pushing their “FAKE NEWS” narrative about Russian ties to his campaign and said, again, that the whole charade is just an excuse for “running a terrible campaign.”
James Clapper and others stated that there is no evidence Potus colluded with Russia. This story is FAKE NEWS and everyone knows it!
