And who is standing next to mueller? >> rod rosenstein. >> a guy who appointed mueller. suddenly the guy that they set up as the fall guy, as the patsy, suddenly he and mueller together -- >> his stellar reputation is speaking for himself. >> frightening front for donald trump. >> number of layers, especially around general flynn. willie geist, take it. >> joe in a time when there are so many questions about the president trying to exercise undue influence in the people investigating him, like j...

Plays you for a patsy again, might, just might help the president get his act together, which would be good for kwrourbg the party and the country. i always say when things are going this wrong at least in the messaging sense, in the very least we can all agree it seems a little out of control. for me you flip the script. you start doing the opposite of what you were doing that wasnt working. what would you want pence to do in terms of getting the white house in order, in terms of the messaging ...

An independent prosecutor. >> and jeff sessions supposedly recused himself from all matters involving the russian investigation. how is he recusing himself if hes firing the guy in charge of that investigation? sessions himself has to be investigated into the obstruction of justice which is going on and then rod rosenstein. i mean, basically anybody who comes into trumps orbit is humiliated and stripped of all integrity. this guy who was a career prosecutor, sterling record, liked by all sides h...

We have a confidence of trust thin country. this festering cloud over congress and the country only continues to further erode trust and democracy cant function without trust. we have to get to the bottom of this. >> final quick question. so apparently president trump wanted a loyalty of a pinky swear or something from director comey and couldnt get it when they had dinner together. might a positive net effect be increased scrutiny on the process of confirming the successor, such that he or she ...

Continues to further erode trust and democracy cant function without trust. we have to get to the bottom of this. >> final quick question. so apparently president trump wouldnted a loyalty oath, a pinky swear or something from director swear or something from director comey and couldnt get it when they had dinner together. might a positive net effect be increased scrutiny on the process of confirming the successor, such that he or she is not a patsy for the president? >> i think thats absolutely...

Theres no good time to do it, by the way. >> in the letter you say i accepted the recommendation. you already accepted the recommendation. >> i was already going to fire him. >> my hunch is the firing will have unintended consequence, redoubling of the fbi to piece together the russian investigation, and scrutiny of whoever is nominated to be comeys successor should ensure he or she will not be a patsy for the president. but will it harm the president with those that put him in office? i have do...

Accepted their recommendation, so you already accepted the recommendation. >> i was already going to fire regardless of recommendation. >> my hunch is the firing will have unintended consequence, redoubling of efforts by the fbi to piece together the russian investigation, plus the scrutiny of whoever is nominated to be comeys successor should ensure he or she will not be a patsy for the president. but will it harm the president with those who put him in office? i have doubts. most of the caller...

His memo on the abuses by james comey in the hillary clinton case was used as a pretext. he didnt believe apparently this was the purpose for which his memo would be put. so he will answer questions about that next week, and were going to see whether he was being set up as a patsy to blame on this. for people scoring at home, he is a very important character. >> and hopefully his testimony will clear things up. do you agree that a special prosecutor shoos put in place? >> i think both there are ...

Saying, yes, i had a meeting with them and we just did it in the matter of the course of business, but they didnt, they chose to lie. all the president had to do in firing james comey is say i lost the confidence of the fbi director, its time to move that agency in a different direction. they couldnt do that. they set up a straw man, they set up a patsy, they played him for all it was worth until he said he was going to quit. the behavior suggests something far more obvious. i mean ominous. you ...

Days earlier. the question i guess, really the most important question, whether rod rosenstein wants to get his reputation back or not, whether hes going to stand up to being rolled over and played for a patsy and whether hes going to be tough, too. the president could have made things significantly worse for himself by trying to end this investigation. >> fidelity, bravely, integrity, thats what the fbi is about. director comey tried to have integrity and he was fired for it. what youll find ou...
