(((Schiff says Trump is 'weak,' promises to call acting Attorney General Whitaker before Congress)))

 

Rep. Adam Schiff continued his public feud with President Trump on Sunday, calling him “weak” and promising to get to the bottom of Matthew Whitaker’s appointment as acting attorney general.

 

Schiff, D-Calif., who has long been a fierce critic of the president, said on CNN’s “State of the Union” that Trump was “not being honest” with Americans about the murder of Washington Post writer Jamal Khashoggi by Saudi operatives in Turkey and questioned whether the president may have some personal business interests with Saudi Arabia.

 

“I think, in part, he feels by saying that we don't know or that the world is a dangerous place or everybody does it, he thinks it makes him look strong,” Schiff said. “It actually makes him look weak.”

 

He added: “Whether this is simply an affinity he has for autocrats – he seems to choose them repeatedly over his own intelligence agencies – or whether there’s a financial motivation, in his own personal finances, we don’t know. Of course he has openly bragged about how many millions he makes from Saudi Arabia. Is his personal financial interest driving U.S. policy in the Gulf?…..cont.
