"I came here to do a on infrastructure meeting with Democrats -- not really thinking that they wanted to do infrastructure or anything else other than investigate. And I just saw that Nancy Pelosi, just before our meeting, made a statement that we believe that 'the President of the United States is engaged in a cover-up.' It turns out I'm the most -- I think most of you would agree to this -- I'm the most transparent president probably in the history of this country."
Trump, according to CNN reporting, had marched into the planned meeting with Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on a potential infrastructure deal and informed them he couldn't do any deals while Democrats were investigating him. End of meeting. The President had been set off by Pelosi saying Wednesday morning -- following a meeting of the entire House Democratic caucus -- that Trump had "engaged in a cover-up" as it related to Mueller's Russia probe.
"I don't do cover-ups," Trump insisted in the Rose Garden shortly after the "meeting" with the two top Democrats in Congress. (Trump was, according to CNN's Pamela Brown, incensed by Pelosi's "cover-up" allegation.)
Care to explain ignoring the subpoenas and filing suits to stymie investigation.
