Trump blasts reported grand jury, says part of ‘greatest Witch Hunt’

Former President Donald Trump came out swinging Tuesday night in response to a report that Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance has convened a grand jury to examine potential criminal charges related to the activities of the Trump Organization.

“This is a continuation of the greatest Witch Hunt in American history,” Trump began a lengthy statement. “It began the day I came down the escalator in Trump Tower, and it’s never stopped. They wasted two years and $48 million in taxpayer dollars on Mueller and Russia Russia Russia, Impeachment Hoax #1, Impeachment Hoax #2, and it continues to this day, with illegally leaked confidential information.” The Washington Post reported Tuesday that the grand jury will sit three days per week for the next six months and will hear evidence related to several long-term matters.
