The comments from Trump come weeks after Mueller's report on his investigation into Russian interference and whether the president committed obstruction of justice was released in a redacted form.
Mueller's investigation did not uncover evidence to conclude that a conspiracy took place between Trump's 2016 campaign and Moscow. However, the report noted that Mueller could not make a conclusive determination in regards to whether Trump obstructed justice.
Democratic lawmakers have vowed to further investigate Trump on matters related to collusion, among other things. But the Trump administration has been resistant to these efforts.
