This isn't Trump's first time crying 'witch hunt,' but that probably doesn't surprise you

The President who cried witch hunt has been doing so since 2011

Ah yes, "the single greatest witch hunt of a politician in American history..." since the last one, anyways.

Donald Trump has cried witch hunt a lot over the years, so when he claimed that the outcry over this current, self-imposed string of scandals is the single greatest, Parker Molloy showed up with the receipts.

Molloy created a Twitter Moment containing all the "witch hunt" tweets in Trump's long and storied Twitter history, starting with Thursday morning's doozy:

Just six short days before that, the witch hunt was warming up-- not yet the greatest in history, but still worth tweeting about, apparently.

When the witch hunt isn't targeting him, he likes to offer Trump Tidbits of advice to the victims, like Mike Flynn.

Important to remember: all that stuff about treason and collusion? Unimportant! The real story is the witch hunt (you know, the hunt for treason and collusion).

All purpose tweet.

Timeless!

That brings us to the witch hunt before the witch hunt-- Trump University, where the hunt ended in Trump paying $25 million to the victims.

Throwback witch hunt.

Witch Hunt: Origins

The b-plot in the whole thing is that Trump has been on a long journey in spelling witch hunt-- hyphenated? In quotes? Just feel it out.
