Trump plots post-Mueller payback

A sheet of talking points the White House circulated to Trump surrogates, which was obtained by The Hill, knocked Democrats for “criticizing the special counsel’s findings” and accused them of plotting “their own politically-motivated investigations of the president.”

“Congressional Democrats have an opportunity to leave these pointless investigations in the past and join with the President to achieve what’s best for the American people,” the sheet reads.

The Trump campaign sent a memo to television networks urging them not to book Democratic guests they say made “outlandish, false claims” about collusion, including House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (N.Y.), Sen. Richard Blumenthal (Conn.) and Democratic National Committee Chairman Tom Perez. The memo was first obtained by Axios.
