President Trump knocked Democrats on Thursday for crafting a “phony crime” about collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, saying his political opponents colluded to “make this pile of garbage take on a life” in the media.

“So, the Democrats make up a phony crime, Collusion with the Russians, pay a fortune to make the crime sound real, illegally leak (Comey) classified information so that a Special Councel will be appointed, and then Collude to make this pile of garbage take on life in Fake News!” Trump tweeted.
