A former spokesman for the Department of Justice says that White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus must resign in the wake of revelations that he had called the FBI to ask them to publicly deny a story about the Trump campaign’s contacts with Russian intelligence officials.

Appearing on Chris Hayes’s show on MSNBC, ex-DOJ spokesman Matthew Miller said that anyone in the Obama administration would have been fired instantly for doing anything close to what Priebus did.

I am a bit skeptical of Priebus’s appropriateness as part of Trump’s administration but the idea of him resigning due to pressure from these sources is absurd. Trump has reasons for Priebus, and while I don’t like the guy, I don’t know what Trump’s reasons for having him where is are and would yield to his judgment. He is better than most or nearly all in the judgment field.

It’s just another snare that was laid among many others as they try to build a case for impeachment.
