Trump lashes out at 'disgraceful judicial system' after his much-hyped Durham probe fails to convict suspects

Raw Story  

Former President Donald Trump on Thursday attacked the American legal system after his much-hyped probe into the FBI's investigation of his 2016 campaign's contacts with Russian agents failed to convict another alleged wrongdoer. Days after Trump-appointed special prosecutor John Durham lost his second case before a jury in the last six months, Trump baselessly claimed on his Truth Social platform that Durham's failure was due to purported "bias" in the judicial system. "The disgraceful judicial system was on full display yet again with the Danchenko Verdict," Trump wrote. Many legal analysts believed that Durham brought weak cases against ancillary figures in the Trump-Russia investigation, and he never came close to proving Trump's baseless claims that former President Barack Obama conspired with Hillary Clinton and FBI Director James Comey to frame him after he made overtures to Russia to help him win by releasing Clinton's hacked emails.
