Former President Donald Trump is calling a criminal investigation that was confirmed by the New York Attorney General’s office into the Trump Organization a “political witch hunt.”

After Attorney General Letitia James’s office announced the probe on May 18, Trump said that “there is nothing more corrupt than an investigation that is in desperate search of a crime.”
