Warner: ‘Absolutely Unthinkable’ If Trump Asked Comey to Back off Investigations

EXCERPT:

WARNER: "Regardless of what you feel about Comey, that’s not how he should be treated. And the question we have, and I think most Americans have is, you know, going back to Watergate, there’s a series of rules that have kind of emerged out of Washington. One that a President shouldn’t ask about an ongoing investigation, particularly shouldn’t ask if that investigation is connected to affiliates of the President. And it would be absolutely unthinkable if the President of the United States asked the FBI director to basically back off an investigation that was directed at some of the affiliates of Mr. Trump."
