My agenda is moving ahead despite distraction of `Witch Hunt`: Trump

New Delhi [India], June 18 : United States President Donald Trump on Sunday said his agenda to "Make America Great Again" is progressing despite the distraction of what he called a "witch hunt." "The MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN agenda is doing very well despite the distraction of the Witch Hunt.

Many new jobs, high business enthusiasm, massive regulation cuts, 36 new legislative bills signed, great new S.C.Justice, and Infrastructure, Healthcare and Tax Cuts in works!" Trump said in a series of tweets.

Trump also boasted about his 50 percent approval rating in a Rasmussen daily tracking poll, which has been an outlier since he took office.

"The new Rasmussen Poll, one of the most accurate in the 2016 Election, just out with a Trump 50% Approval Rating.That's higher than O's #'s!" Trump said in another tweet.

Trump often uses the term "witch hunt" to describe the investigation into Russian meddling in the presidential election and possible collusion between his campaign and Moscow.

The US President announced on Friday that he was being investigated for firing former FBI Director James Comey, and seemingly trained his guns on deputy attorney general accusing him of overseeing a "witch hunt" against him.

"I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director!" Trump said on Twitter, calling the probe into him a "Witch Hunt.".
