(MENAFN) President Trump was declared to have included in his legal team a lawyer who is known for accusing the FBI of looking to "frame" the president with a made-up crime.
The President's counsel Jay Sekulow issued a statement, declaring "former US Attorney for the District of Columbia Joe diGenova will be joining our legal team later this week."
The statement added "I have worked with Joe for many years and have full confidence that he will be a great asset in our representation of the president."
The lawyer has previously accused Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation of being a "brazen plot" that the FBI created "to illegally exonerate Hillary Clinton and, if she didn't win the election, to then frame Donald Trump with a falsely created crime."
