Was this the lawyer that both interviewed people and then testified at the hearings?
So the dems are considering impeaching Trump for thinking about, or possibly talking about, firing Mueller. (which he has every legal right to) Of which Trump did NOT fire Mueller, so how can this be obstruction? I guess republican thoughts are crimes now.... Minority Report coming true.
IIRC, McGahn was the WH lawyer who dissuaded DJT from firing one of the Coup de taters....Comey or Mueller. I believe he left his position because he wouldn’t follow DJT’s orders citing pubic perceptions. (He may have been correct at that point in time)
Ds tried to equate this to the Nixon Saturday Night Massacre’s firing of the AG.(Rehnquist ?)
If my memory is correct, there is no equating the 2. Nixon was on the ropes with little R support, supposedly obstructed justice with his attempts at a cover-up of the Plumbers illegal snooping, breaking and entering at the Watergate . (of which Nixon had no knowledge).
Whereas, DJT has nothing to coverup and yuuuuge public support. Both Nixon and Trump can fire an AG for any damn reason they please. Clarification and correction are welcomed if my recall is faulty.
