Rubio on Trump’s ‘Witch Hunt’ Comments: ‘The President Is Entitled to His Opinion’

‘That’s a reality that our institutions work’

EXCERPT:

RUBIO: “The President is entitled to his opinion. We’re a nation of laws. That’s not a criticism of the President. That’s a reality that our institutions work. The acting attorney general has the authority to appoint a special counsel and he has done so. The acting attorney general in the sense of the fact that Attorney General is recused on the Russian matters. And in that capacity he has appointed special counsel, a person of high esteem for whom I have tremendous respect for. I have full confidence that he will conduct an independent, thorough and fair investigation. Meanwhile, the Senate will continue its work on the counterintelligence aspect of this matter. Everybody should fully cooperate.”
