If reports are to be believed, FBI Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into possible collusion between Russia and members of the Trump 2016 campaign is nearing completion. While there’s no guarantee the public will ever see the report, as the decision to share it rests with Attorney General William Barr, President Donald Trump is apparently OK with it. If Trump’s comments on whether the public can see the Mueller report surprise you, you’re probably not alone.
He made the announcement on Wednesday, March 20 while speaking to reporters on the South Lawn of the White House, per The Hill. He expressed hopes that it will vindicate him. “I don’t mind,” Trump apparently said in response to a reporter who asked if the public has a right to see the investigation’s final report. “I mean, frankly, I told the House, if you want, let ‘em see it.”
He added that his supporters, who helped him win “one of the greatest elections of all time in the history of this country,” want to see the report.
