Chris Cuomo asks the tough questions to newsmakers in Washington and around the world. Rosenstein look, Jeff Sessions he recused himself. Had to have recused himself because theres a regulation in place that says if you work on a campaign and theres a criminal investigation relating to that campaign the president says it was a bum move and he should have told him about it and it was a total hoodwink. Wrong, wrong, wrong. As far as it being a hoodwink, sessions would have had to have had the gift of prophecy along with the president in order to believe at the time he was ainterest poed, there was was going to be to an investigation thats why i was confused by your initial writings on this one because of my respect for your mind and that rosenstein the only thing he could do is get a prophylactic in play, get somebody who had one layer away from the president , which technically a Special Counsel does, because otherwise he could have been fired like that if he were running it.

A lot of things. Thanks, appreciate the reporting. Im joined by caroline. Lets get to the conflict issue and what the president wrote over the weekend. Is Robert Mueller ever going to release his conflicts of interest with respect to prtd tr President Trump. What he was talking about with this alleged Conflict Of Interest and white house wouldnt tell cnn either when they asked this question. You think you know what its about and has merit. There are three things we know that President Trump himself stated, theres this lingering Potential Dispute over fees at his golf course and then of course the other issue besides the fact that mueller had worked for wilmer hail, the law firm that represented jared and ivanka and experts in the doj cleared, they vetted him to do this representation ethically.
