Weve got to look at for eight months e were doing this so i think following procedures is something you have to look at time is expired if he wishes. He doesnt wish. Good morning. The president who had no role in the white house asked you to deliver that message to Attorney General Sessions the president could have picked up the phone himself at any time and called the Attorney General. The president also had a full staff of executive employees right down the hall. So this made me wonder if the president thought what he was doing was legal why didnt he
just pick up the phone and call the Attorney General Sessions or why not ask any member of his staff who worked right down the hall to deliver a message . It is clear to me that he went to you is because everyone said no so i want to ask you about that. Two days before meeting you, the president called white House Counsel mcgahn on a saturday to fire the Special Counsel saying and you can see that on the screen, mueller has to go. Call m
for word speech for him, that, there was no inconsistency with that and the fact that the attorney general had recused himself, you know he had and you knew he couldn t participate in that i m not a trained congressman. i am that s not why i m asking. just asking if you knew that he had retuesdcused hym ed him. and by recusing himself, you re aware of the public reports that what was in his recusal statement on march 2nd of 2017, that he wasn t going to participate in any existing or fuf vest gays or any matters relating to the campaign for president. you knew that was out there. so when the president asked you to specifically go in there and ask him to deliver a speech which was contrary to that, forget b about being a lawyer. did it strike jou as off in any way or were you concerned in any way? no, sir was it the right decision for sessions to recuse himself well i can t comment on jeff sessions decision making
