Van Hollen: ‘President Trump Is Acting Guilty as Hell Going After Mueller’

‘It’s an alarming development, but we need to make sure Congress on a bipartisan basis stands with an independent investigation’

EXCERPT:

VAN HOLLEN: "Now you see this stepped-up attack, and Congressman Trey Gowdy asked the question just yesterday in connection with Trump’s lawyer, if you have an innocent client, act like it. That’s what he was saying to Trump’s lawyer. The same should be said to the President, right? If you’re innocent, if you’ve got nothing to hide, for goodness sakes, act like it, because President Trump is acting guilty as hell going after Mueller, trying to short-circuit this investigation, trying to discredit this investigation. It’s an alarming development, but we need to make sure that Congress on a bipartisan basis stands with an independent investigation and makes it clear that getting rid of Mueller would generate a constitutional crisis."
