john, when sarah kept saying today, i refer you to outside counsel, i can t answer that, another thing she kept saying repeatedly is, stop asking me if he s going to pardon himself, because he h donenything wrong. and here s how that went down. thedent hasn t done ything wrong. thankfully the president hasn t done anything wrong. the president hasn t done anything wrong. once again, the president hasn t done anything wrong. thankfully the president hast done anything wrong. i reiterate the fact that the president hasn t done anything wrong. why is rudy giuliani out there saying the president can pardon himself? i m just confused. well, she s obviously going to stay on her talking points. that s about the only thing that s clear there. and this whole matter of the self-pardon, again goes back to nixon. four days before he left office, the office of legal counsel issued a memo saying that they didn t believe a president could self-pardon.
rosenstein for a second. when i read the article, not the exact same thought as you but i did think who benefits from this leak right now? who benefits from the notion that andrew mccabe wrote a memo saying rod rosenstein might be conflicted here? explain what that conflict is. if the mccabe memo is accurate, then rosenstein knew that russia was on the mind of the president when he fired james comey. why wouldn t rosenstein have to testify about that? what does it say about rosenstein when he appointed the special counsel to look into matters of russia? obviously we know that mueller is taking a look at obstruction. the president s justification regarding why he fired comey is obviously going to be important and the fact that rosenstein changed the hid what the president s true motive was, at least that s the allegation in the mccabe memo suggests that he knew that the president had a potentially improper motive and
