Trump: ‘Chris Murphy Literally Threatened the President of Ukraine’ for Dirt on Me

TRUMP: “So I think you’ll have close to 100 percent of the Republican votes, I hope. And they got almost no attention, but in May CNN reported that senators Robert Menendez, Richard Durbin and Patrick Leahy wrote a letter to Ukraine’s prosecutor general expressing concern at the closing of four investigations they said were critical. In the letter they implied that their support for U.S. assistance to Ukraine was at stake and that if they didn’t do the right thing, they wouldn’t get any assistance. See, doesn’t that sound familiar? Doesn’t that sound familiar? And Chris Murphy, who I’ve been dealing with on guns, so nice, oh, no, we want to work it out, but they’re too busy wasting their time on the witch hunt. So Senator Chris Murphy literally threatened the President of Ukraine that if he doesn’t do things right, they won’t have Democrat support in Congress. So you’re going to look at all of this.”
