As only one of two people left who could become President, why wouldnt the FBI or Department of Justice have told me that they were secretly investigating Paul Manafort (on charges that were 10 years old and had been previously dropped) during my campaign? Should have told me!

....Paul Manafort came into the campaign very late and was with us for a short period of time (he represented Ronald Reagan, Bob Dole & many others over the years), but we should have been told that Comey and the boys were doing a number on him, and he wouldnt have been hired!

The tweets recalled a similar missive from the President late last month, when he wondered aloud, why didnt the crooked highest levels of the FBI or Justice contact me to tell me of the phony Russia problem?

That would be the FBI Director and the United States Department of Justice launching a criminal investigation, Assface. On You!
Why does he use mob terminology when referring to law enforcement?
