Trump rips Democrats ahead of testimony from John Dean

Trump on Sunday ripped Democrats ahead of testimony from John Dean, a former White House counsel for President Nixon who proved pivotal during the Watergate scandal.

"The Dems were devastated - after all this time and money spent ($40,000,000), the Mueller Report was a disaster for them," Trump tweeted Sunday evening.

"But they want a Redo, or Do Over. They are even bringing in @CNN sleazebag attorney John Dean. Sorry, no Do Overs - Go back to work!"

Dean, a CNN contributor, was connected to the Watergate cover-up and delivered televised testimony before lawmakers that helped lead to Nixon’s resignation.

Democrats in the House Judiciary Committee will grill Dean on Monday in an attempt to to shine a spotlight on the unsavory details about Trump’s conduct contained in special counsel Robert Mueller’s report.

Dean has been a vocal critic of Trump's, arguing the president engaged in obstruction based on what is described in Mueller’s report.

these so called Media outlets reporting mostly Trump Stories about him being angry. Enough with this crap,the Hill so called News site should be calling their pal Donnie out for all his friggin lies.

So just some more wasted copy about Trump. We all know he does his Tweeter Crap as soon as word come out some one is going to do one thing or another.

He should be yelling at Senate Republicans to, "Go back to work," and actually vote on some of bills that Pelosi has already sent over.



House has taken up 51 bills, resolutions, and suspensions since January — 49 of which they’ve passed.

There are a lot of similaries between Nixon during Watergate and Trump now. With the right questioning, Dean should be able to get these parallels out. It's hard to believe Dean will turn 81 this year, too.
