A proper "Witch Hunt" is a person being accused, then to get special treatment, that person will accuse another person to gain favourable position.
Example: The prosecutor (P) can prove Subject A is guilty of crimes, unrelated to Subject B. However the P will offer A 5 years in prison instead of the possible 85 years, IF A will provide evidence against B.
Such evidence may or usually is not true, either way B is next to be prosecuted. Then B may Turn on C and repeat, repeat.
Referring to the days of yore when in Salem Massachusetts the pious elders tried and murdered women who were accused of being witches. Given that there is no such thing as witches, it is remarkable that the elders found some and had them killed.
Trump's witch hunt is referring to himself as being totally innocent of all charges (of being a witch) and his fear is that the elders (the Democrats) will have him impeached.
