Republicans Preparing to Drain the Swap, of Trump!
Representative Trey Gowdy, during an appearance on “Fox News Sunday,” had some strong advice for John Dowd, an attorney of President Donald Trump’s who has called for an end to special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference.
“If you have an innocent client, Mr. Dowd, act like it,” Gowdy said. “The President’s attorney frankly does him a disservice when he says that.”
Mueller’s investigation isn’t limited to possible Russian collusion with the Trump campaign, Gowdy noted, adding that the investigation is also examining Russian interference with the entire U.S. democratic process and the 2016 presidential election.
“If the allegation is collusion with the Russians, and there is no evidence of that, and you are innocent of that, act like it,” Gowdy said.
Gowdy, who is chairman of the House Oversight Committee and sits on the Intelligence and Judiciary committees, added later,
“If you’ve done nothing wrong, you should want the investigation to be as fulsome and thorough as possible.”Gowdy wasn’t alone in his criticisms. Senator Lindsey Graham, another prominent South Carolina Republican, addressed possibilities that the president could fire the special counsel during an interview on CNN.
“As I said before, if he tried to do that, that would be the beginning of the end of his presidency,” Graham said on CNN’s “State of the Union,” adding that, despite Trump’s criticisms, Mueller is doing “a good job.”
“I think it’s very important he be allowed to do his job without interference and there are many Republicans who share my view,” Graham said. “The only reason Mr. Mueller could ever be dismissed is for cause. I see no cause when it comes to Mr. Mueller.”
He continued:
“I pledge to the American people as a Republican, to ensure that Mr. Mueller can continue to do his job without any interference.” As recently as last month, Gowdy said the much-debated Nunes memo, which alleges abuses of covert surveillance powers by the FBI,
does not vindicate Donald Trump, and that it will not have “any impact on the Russia probe.”
Gowdy made the comments while speaking to CBS’s Margaret Brennan during an appearance on Face the Nation.
“I actually don’t think it has any impact on the Russia probe for this reason––” Gowdy said.
“The memo has no impact on the Russia probe?” Brennan interjected.
“No— not to me, it doesn’t — and I was pretty integrally involved in the drafting of it. There is a Russia investigation without a dossier. So to the extent the memo deals with the dossier and the FISA process, the dossier has nothing to do with the meeting at Trump Tower,” Gowdy said. “The dossier has nothing to do with an email sent by Cambridge Analytica. The dossier really has nothing to do with George Papadopoulos’ meeting in Great Britain. It also doesn’t have anything to do with obstruction of justice. So there’s going to be a Russia probe, even without a dossier.” As for Trump's claims,
"A total WITCH HUNT with massive conflicts of interest!"
Given that nineteen people have been charged with felonies as a result of the investigations and five have have pleaded guilty, including four Trump insiders (so far) and are they are cooperating it's obvious why Trump is getting scared and trying to stop the investigation. They're closing in on his illegal activity and cover ups.
If there was a Richter scale for CONSCIOUSNESS OF GUILT, Trump would be at an 8.0.
