Alberto Gonzales: ‘I Do Not Agree’ with Trump’s Rhetoric the Russia Probe Is a Witch Hunt

‘It is clear that Russia interfered with our election and for that reason alone, I’d like to see the Mueller investigation continue’

EXCERPT:

CUOMO: "Do you think the president has cause to call the Russia investigation or what we just saw with the executed search warrant of his personal attorney's offices an attack on the country?"
GONZALES: "I do not agree with that, quite frankly. I think that based upon the indictments we've already seen, the plea agreements we've had, and the public testimony by our Intelligence Community -- the leaders of our Intelligence Community, it is clear that Russia interfered with our election. And for that reason alone, I'd like to see the Mueller investigation continue. I believe one of the charges of the Mueller team is to find out what Russia did and how they did it. It's very important that we know this information so that we can hold Russia accountable and we can prevent it from happening again. So for that reason alone, I would like to see the Mueller investigation continue because this is information that is extremely valuable to the national security of our country and to our whole democratic process, quite frankly, going forward."
