Whoops, it’s McGahn’s turn under the bus.
So I guess the witness prep did not go well https://t.co/ycIwAw4LHA

He was though. He tried to fire Robert Mueller, and failed only because the people around him prevented him. One of those people was McGahn.
Also if Trump has never been a big fan, why did he make McGahn his White House counsel? Besides the fact that nobody any good would touch it with a bargepole?
Mcgahn finally gets the tweet many White House people thought he’d get for months. What Trump doesn’t mention is McGahn was instrumental in many of the accomplishments conservatives love and kept him from many of his worst instincts. https://t.co/a1DgIkVGWC

But Trump has such a rich array of worst instincts that he still had plenty of them to work with.

Unprecedented help from the Trump administration – translated: didn’t bother to acknowledge the checks and balances all other presidents have recognized existed.
iknklast, for once the Liar-in-Chief wasn’t lying. The refusal to cooperate with Meuller is indeed unprecedented.
On a side note, Trump’s habit of referring to himself in the third person still affects me like the sound of fingernails on a blackboard!
