Trumpin mielipide erikoissyyttäjän nimittämisestä oli taas hieman erikoinen. Erikoissyyttäjän asettaminen vahingoittaa maata ja osoittaa maan olevan kahtiajakautunut. Toisaalta vielä pari päivää sitten presidenttiä vastahakoisesti tukeneen senaattorii Grahamin mukaan nyt on kyseessä rikostutkinta.
"I believe it hurts our country terribly, because it shows we're a divided, mixed-up, not-unified country," Trump said at a luncheon with a group of television news anchors.
"And we have very important things to be doing right now, whether it's trade deals, whether it's military, whether it's stopping nuclear -- all of the things that we discussed today. And I think this shows a very divided country," Trump said.

"Congress' ability to conduct investigations of all things Russia has been severely limited, probably in an appropriate fashion," the South Carolina Republican said, as a result of Mueller's appointment. He added he wasn't able to ask specifically if it was now a criminal probe "but the takeaway I have is, everything he said was that you need to treat this investigation as if it may a criminal investigation."
