President Donald Trump moved quickly Monday to respond to the indictment of former campaign manager Paul Manafort — and what he said has made liberals very unhappy.

Trump pointed out that Manafort’s alleged misdeeds occurred “years ago” before he was ever associated with the president’s campaign. Trump also asked why twice-failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton isn’t the focus of the probe — something that has Democrats very unhappy.

Trump tweeted —

Manafort and Rick Gates surrendered to federal authorities Monday to face felony charges of conspiracy against the United States, acting as an unregistered foreign agent, and several other financial counts involving tens of millions of dollars routed through offshore accounts.

The indictment against Manafort and Gates “looks at their links to pro-Russian politicians in Ukraine between 2006 and 2015,” the BBC reported, which means it is targeting their business dealings — not their actions on the campaign trail.

White House allies privately expressed relief that the charges against Manafort and Gates did not pertain to Russia or the Trump administration. The White House declined to comment on the plea deal of former campaign aide George Papadopolous.

Trump and the White House insist there was no collusion between his presidential campaign and Russia. Both have pointed a finger at Clinton and have suggested that the real story of collusion with Russia is the sale of uranium to Moscow when Clinton was secretary of state.

U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded that Russia interfered with the election. Some say they wanted to benefit Trump, a finding the White House has not fully accepted.

In his weekend tweets, Trump referenced the fact that Clinton’s presidential campaign helped fund political research into Trump that ultimately produced a dossier of fake allegations about his ties to Russia. He also pointed to the uranium sale, the tens of thousands of emails from Clinton’s time at the State Department that she later deleted from a private email server, and the decision by then-FBI Director Jim Comey to not bring criminal charges against Clinton for possible mishandling of classified information.
