Trump Has Himself To Blame For Obstruction Investigation, White House Aides Say
Trump’s Staff Doesn’t Have Any Sympathy For Him.
Donald Trump’s own White House staff doesn’t seem to have much sympathy for the legal mess he has found himself in.
In light of the bombshell Washington Post report that Donald Trump is currently under criminal investigation for obstruction of justice, a new story by The Daily Beast quotes several White House staffers placing the blame squarely on Trump himself.
Trump “shot himself in the foot again with this cockamamie scheme to get Mueller to play ball,” one White House staffer was quoted saying.
“Keep him away from Twitter, dear God, keep him away from Twitter,” another official told the Daily Beast.
“The president did this to himself,” that official added.
And the White House staff seems unified that firing Special Counsel Mueller would be a disaster.
“We are all advising him not to [get rid of] Mueller. That has not changed,” one Trump aide told The Daily Beast. “It would be an absolute nuclear explosion if he did.”
