MSNBC: Trump Potentially Committing Witness Tampering with Tweets Praising Roger Stone

EXCERPT:

GEIST: “Lawyer George Conway, who is the husband of White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, responded to the President by tweeting citations to federal obstruction of justice statutes.”
BRZEZINSKI: "Wow. I just find that incredible."
GEIST: "Former acting solicitor general Neal Katyal echoed Conway's criticism, adding, 'This is genuinely looking like witness tampering. DoJ (at least with a nonfake A.G.) prosecutes cases like this all the time. The fact it’s done out in the open is no defense. Trump is genuinely melting down and no good lawyer can represent him under these circumstances.' And the vice chairman of the Senate Intel Committee Mark Warner wrote, 'This is serious. The President of the United States should not be using his platform to influence potential witnesses in a federal investigation involving his campaign.' In a bid to defend his client, the President’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani claimed Trump’s tweet did not amount to obstruction of justice because the President is only encouraging someone not to lie."
