Trump claims Americans deserve' probe into Hillary Clinton's fundraising agreement
Washington: President Donald Trump says the American public "deserves" a federal investigation of Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee over a joint fundraising agreement they signed in August 2015.
....People are angry. At some point the Justice Department, and the FBI, must do what is right and proper. The American public deserves it!

Trump's accusation follows Politico's publication of an excerpt from former acting DNC Chair Donna Brazile's upcoming book. Brazile alleges she found "proof" that the 2016 Democratic primary was rigged in Clinton's favour. Brazile writes that she believes no laws were violated, but late Thursday, Trump tweeted without evidence that he believed they had acted "illegally."
The real story on Collusion is in Donna B's new book. Crooked Hillary bought the DNC & then stole the Democratic Primary from Crazy Bernie!
