The ongoing Russia investigation is a "one-way pile-on" and there is "nothing there," especially considering the "crimes that other people get away with," President Donald Trump's son Eric said Wednesday.
"You look at [former Attorney General] Loretta Lynch, she hasn't even been subpoenaed," Trump told Fox News' "Fox & Friends" program.
"How has Loretta Lynch not been subpoenaed? Where are all of these enraged senators and people calling for her?"
He said he also wants to know why nobody has been investigated for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's involvement in the Uranium One sale or for the "crimes being committed by the Clinton Foundation and the millions given from Saudi Arabia."
Between the leakers and everyone else, the Russia investigation seems to be a "one-way pile on," Trump said, and that's his "father's frustration."
"Where is it on the other side, when there are legitimate crimes over there, and everybody has proof about it?" said Trump. "You don't have any proof on Russia. There is nothing there.
"But you do have proof that Loretta Lynch was on an airplane with Bill Clinton while they were investigating his wife. What would actually take there? It can be a one-way street."
Meanwhile, Trump said his father is pushing forward to repeal and replace Obamacare, and then on to tax reform, and there are many signs his presidency is succeeding.
"Once again yesterday, the Dow broke another all-time record," said Trump. "The records were up 17 percent in his first six months. I mean, that's an amazing thing . . . It's great for jobs, it's great for everything."
In addition, the energy industry is now exporting coal and natural gas, and the Keystone pipeline is "finally being built," said Trump.
"Look at all the great things that he's doing," said Trump. "The economy's strong. Look at the great aircraft carrier the other day. How impressive that sight was. We're going to have the greatest aircraft carrier anywhere in the world. A rebuilding of the military and everything else. It's awesome."
However, he said his family is under attack "for everything."
"You see what they've done to Don [Jr.], to Jared [Kushner]," said Trump. "You see the nasty things they say about my pregnant wife, about Barron. I've raised $20 million for St. Jude, they attack me . . . we're always under siege, but it is what it is. You're the first family, it's a nasty system."
