WASHINGTON, D.C. (KGTV) -- In a Sunday morning tweet, President Trump demanded that the Department of Justice look into whether or not the Trump campaign was "infiltrated or surveilled."
Trump said that he will officially demand that the DOJ look into the alleged program Monday.
Trump said he will also ask that the department look into whether “…such demands or requests were made by people within the Obama Administration!”
I hereby demand, and will do so officially tomorrow, that the Department of Justice look into whether or not the FBI/DOJ infiltrated or surveilled the Trump Campaign for Political Purposes - and if any such demands or requests were made by people within the Obama Administration!

The tweet was one of many sent out by Trump Sunday morning. In another tweet, the President once again referred to the Russia investigation as a “witch hunt" and implied that the probe is running out of steam.
Now that the Witch Hunt has given up on Russia and is looking at the rest of the World, they should easily be able to take it into the Mid-Term Elections where they can put some hurt on the Republican Party. Don’t worry about Dems FISA Abuse, missing Emails or Fraudulent Dossier!

(ABC) -- The world's two biggest economies are pulling back from the brink of a trade war after making progress in talks aimed at bringing down America's massive trade deficit with China.
"We are putting the trade war on hold," U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said on "Fox News Sunday."
After high-level talks Thursday and Friday, Beijing agreed in a joint statement with the U.S. to "substantially reduce" America's trade deficit with China — but didn't commit to cut the gap by any specific amount. The Trump administration had sought to slash the deficit by $200 billion.
