I am being investigated for firing the FBI Director by the man who told me to fire the FBI Director! Witch Hunt

There's a lie in the tweet, though. The investigation is being conducted by Robert Mueller, who did not tell Trump to fire James Comey (although some claim Trump is referring to Rod Rosenstein, who is heading the investigation at the FBI). AND, Trump told Lester Holt in an interview that Trump fired him regardless of recommendations.
But there's more:
Before posting that Tweet, Trump said this:
After 7 months of investigations & committee hearings about my "collusion with the Russians," nobody has been able to show any proof. Sad!

If there's no proof of collusion, then why did Trump try to obstruct the investigation?
Because by his own admission, Trump is being investigated for obstruction of justice. THEREFORE, there must have been something he wanted to stop from being investigated. THEREFORE, there must be proof of something.
Funny how Trump's tweets debunk his own tweets.
