President Sees 'Very Good Day' for Him in Mueller Testimony

Ken Bredemeier

   WASHINGTON - U.S. President Donald Trump celebrated former special
   counsel Robert Mueller's appearances Wednesday before two House of
   Representatives committees as "a very good day" for himself and fellow
   Republicans. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said after Mueller's testimony
   about his investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election
   and alleged obstruction of justice by Trump that Democrats would push
   on in their own probes of the president and his administration.

   "There was no defense for this ridiculous hoax, this witch hunt that's
   been going on for a long time," Trump told reporters using his
   oft-repeated dismissals of Mueller's investigation. "What he showed
   more than anything else is that this whole thing has been three years
   of embarrassment and waste of time for our country."
