Trump Explodes on Twitter Over Being Investigated, ‘They Never Did This to Obama!’

Donald Trump exploded on Twitter Thursday morning over Rep. Adam Schiff who on Wednesday announced plans to share transcripts of House Intel Committee interviews with the office of Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

Trump addressed this on Wednesday during a pool spray in which Fox News John Roberts asked about Schiff’s previous announcement, calling the California Democrat and House Intel Committee Chair a “partisan hack.”

Over 50 transcripts being shared with Mueller’s office appears to be on the top of commander in chief’s mind in early morning tweets.

Trump tweeted, “So now Congressman Adam Schiff announces, after having found zero Russian Collusion, that he is going to be looking at every aspect of my life, both financial and personal, even though there is no reason to be doing so. Never happened before! Unlimited Presidential Harassment.”

He continued, “The Dems and their committees are going “nuts.” The Republicans never did this to President Obama, there would be no time left to run government. I hear other committee heads will do the same thing. Even stealing people who work at White House! A continuation of Witch Hunt!”

Trump has long maintained that an investigation into his personal business and family would “cross a red line” though it appears that an ongoing investigation into the Trump Organization has not led to any prescriptive measure to kill the investigation from the White House.

And Trump wasn’t done!

Look:

Trump’s claim that Obama was never investigated was quickly fact-checked by members of the media on Twitter. Some rebutted Trump’s tweet by simply mentioning Benghazi, while others brought up the Obama administration’s IRS and Fast and Furious investigations.
