When asked about his lawyers in a letter explaining to Special Counsel Robert Mueller that President Trump did in fact dictate a letter to the New York Times about the Trump Tower meeting with a Russian informant, President Trump says, “it was a letter to the phony New York Times.”
Q: Did you dictate Don Jr's misleading Trump Tower meeting statement? (Note: his lawyers say he did.")
TRUMP: "Let's not talk about it. You know what that is? It's irrelevant. It's a statement to the New York Times … It's not a statement to a high tribunal of judges." pic.twitter.com/AOfp313aL7

Asked about Paul Manafort’s legal trouble, President Trump says
“he feels bad for him.”
He adds it’s unfair they “burst into a lawyers office.” Michael Cohen’s law office was raided, the FBI had a legal search warrant to recover documents as part of an investigation into money laundering and wire fraud.
TRUMP says he "feels badly" for Paul Manafort. "They went back 12 years to get things that he did 12 years ago?"
Trump falsely claims that Manafort worked on the campaign for "49 days or something." It was 5 months.
Trump won't rule out a pardon either. (via FOX) pic.twitter.com/9jUAH05LFh
