President Donald Trump has every right to be angry he was "being investigated for a crime that never happened" by "people who hate him," the president's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani said Sunday.
In remarks on Fox News' "America's News HQ," Giuliani called for an investigation now "to figure out where did the charge emanate?"
"I can see why he would be upset and the president has told me numerous times no other president should ever have to go through this," Giuliani said. "I think there has to be a full and complete investigation to figure out where did the charge emanate, who started it and who paid for it?"
According to Giuliani, the Mueller report summary released by Attorney General William Barr on Sunday "was [a] far better report than I expected."
He also directed a message to Democrats in the wake of special counsel Robert Mueller's determination there was no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.
"I would just say to them, please think about the country no matter how much you like or dislike the president, agree or disagree with policies," he said. "He has been unfairly treated with regard to collusion, certainly they have to see that and all what they are trying to do now is completely political and I hope some of them, I put out a tweet saying I hope that [Rep. Adam] Schiff [D-Calif.] and a couple of others apologize."
In an interview with CNN, Giuliani called for the public release of Mueller's full report.
"Sure," he said when asked about releasing the full report. "We would all like it to happen, because if it doesn't happen, somebody is going to say there is something in there."
