White House counselor Kellyanne Conway’s husband on Monday suggested that President Donald Trump obstructed justice and tampered with a witness when he praised Roger Stone for not cooperating with special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation.
Trump tweeted Monday morning: “’I will never testify against Trump.’ This statement was recently made by Roger Stone, essentially stating that he will not be forced by a rogue and out of control prosecutor to make up lies and stories about ‘President Trump.’ Nice to know that some people still have ‘guts!’”
Conway, who is an attorney, retweeted Trump and commented, “file under ‘18 U.S.C. §§ 1503, 1512,’” the statues that cover obstruction of justice and tampering with witnesses, victims or informants.
Former acting solicitor general Neal Katyal agreed with Conway, tweeting: “George is right. This is genuinely looking like witness tampering. DOJ (at least with a nonfake AG) prosecutes cases like these all the time. The fact it's done out in the open is no defense. Trump is genuinely melting down, and no good lawyer can represent him under these circs.”
