Rosenstein’s behavior is wrong.
Unbelievable and unacceptable. The DAG should not be talking to Trump about this investigation under any circumstances, let alone making assurances while pleading for his job. https://t.co/ecWqt6c8Gl

Short summary of tonight's speech by Rod R:

1. It was awful that Obama – who publicly outed the Russian plot – didn't do more to stop it
2. It's no big deal that Trump, and his family, and his campaign, still deny that it ever happened.https://t.co/KjIt7UJ1gI
The big picture on Rod is extremely complicated. He played a thoroughly dishonorable role in the Comey firing. He then appointed Mueller. He protected Mueller from Congress. He also played both sides of the fence with respect to Trump. He gave far too much information to Congress

WOW. After the NYT reported last year that Rod Rosenstein was willing to wear a wire to record Trump, Rosenstein sought to defuse the situation by assuring Trump that he "was on his team," according to people familiar with the matter.
