John Podesta, the former campaign chair for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 bid for president, painted himself as a “victim” Tuesday after President Trump repeated claims a federal investigation into Tony Podesta’s lobbying firm overshadowed the first indictments issued by special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe.
“Not bad enough that I was the victim of a massive cyber crime directed by the Russian President,” Podesta wrote on Twitter Tuesday. “Now I’m the victim of a big lie campaign by the American President.”
Earlier on Tuesday, Trump tweeted Democrats were “in a dither” over an announcement made on Monday that John Podesta’s brother, Tony Podesta, was resigning from the lobbying business in response to an investigation by Mueller.
