White House chief of staff John Kelly said Monday that the Russia investigation is “very distracting” to President Trump, despite the White House saying that the indictments have “nothing to do” with the president.
“It is very distracting to the president, as it would be to any citizen, to be investigated,” Kelly said in an interview with Fox News’s Laura Ingraham.
Trump and the White House have repeatedly denied that the president is being targeted in special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Russia’s influence on the 2016 election.
