发帖数: 930 | 1 CNN: Trump 'seething' as Mueller probe reaches former aides
Washington (CNN)The dramatic intensification of the Russia investigation on
Monday reignited President Donald Trump's fury at the controversy clouding
his presidency, prompting his aides to urgently advise him against lashing
out at special counsel Robert Mueller as they work to revive a halting
policy agenda.
Watching the developments unfold on the large television screens installed
in his private residence, Trump was "seething," according to a Republican
close to the White House.
The indictments on Monday of campaign aides Paul Manafort and Rick Gates
weren't a surprise to Trump, according to people who have spoken with the
President. Trump has long assumed that members of his presidential campaign
would be swept up in Mueller's probe.
The revelation that another campaign adviser, George Papadopoulos, pleaded
guilty to making false statements to the FBI was far less expected, the
sources said. And the assumption that Papadopoulos is cooperating with the
FBI's Russia probe stirred even more unease among Trump's allies.
