"I think we've wasted enough time on this witch hunt, and the answer is, probably, we' re finished," the president said in the interview.

Trump has repeatedly dismissed any collusion between his campaign and Russia in the U.S. 2016 elections.

Trump has also attacked the probe by calling it a "hoax" or "witch hunt," raising long-running speculation that he would force it to be shut down, a move that analysts say could trigger a political firestorm.

The Mueller probe started in May 2017. Since then, Mueller's prosecutors have secured indictments against 32 individuals and three Russian businesses on charges ranging from computer hacking to financial fraud, leading to six guilty pleas and three people sentenced in jail.
