Mark Warner
Warner, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee warned Trump.
“Congress must make clear to the President that firing the Special Counsel or interfering with his investigation by issuing pardons of essential witnesses is unacceptable and would have immediate and significant consequences,” Warner said.
Warner was recently interviewed on MSNBC’s Morning Joe.
“To impugn the credibility of the whole bureau as a way of going after Bob Mueller, as a way of protecting the President, is such a disservice,” he said. “You have to ask yourself, ‘where are the patriots in Congress right now? Where are those that are willing to stand up for our institutions?”
When the probe had first begun a bill was created to protect all Special Counsels and other investigators.
The bill still had a way to go to become actual legislation. Analyst believed that letting the inquiry continue was best. It would vindicate the Trump Administration if found innocent and bring a different outlook towards him.
This would definitely change things for Trump. He could very well gain the support of some who currently don’t support him.
