Michael Caputo: Trump’s Twitter Feed Makes Those of Us on the Outside ‘Pretty Nervous’

‘I think any previous president would probably take the advice of his counselors and not talk about ongoing legal cases that could come back to the White House’

EXCERPT:

CAPUTO: "Well, I think any previous president would probably take the advice of his counselors and not talk about ongoing legal cases that could come back to the White House. But this is a different kind of president. Previous presidents might not have even used Twitter. And now this president is. You know, most of my friends who are in the White House, those of us who are outside who watch the Twitter feed, just like you do, you know, sometimes it makes us pretty nervous. But this president is very different and I think he feels confident in his position in his legal case and he's not as concerned as we are. I get that. But the problem we have here is this. The lawyer, Dowd, apparently drafted a tweet that was, you know, worded poorly. The president has said that he fired General Flynn for lying to the vice president. And we also have known for 11 months, 11 months, from a 'New York Times' leak 11 months ago that General Flynn very likely flied to the FBI. These charges that came down against General Flynn have been long, long, long expected. And I think we're just seeing the advancement of this investigation."
