Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb calls Mueller 'an American hero'
One of President Donald Trump’s former White House lawyers said this week that special counsel Robert Mueller is an "American hero" and that the probe he is leading is not a "witch hunt," rejecting the president's repeated characterizations of the Russia investigation and the man leading it.
In an interview on ABC News’ “The Investigation” podcast published Tuesday, Ty Cobb disputed many of the president’s complaints about Mueller and his team, chiefly that Mueller’s examination of the 2016 presidential election and Trump’s possible obstruction of justice was a "witch hunt.".
“I don’t feel the investigation is a witch hunt,” Cobb said, adding he wished the investigation “had happened on a quicker time frame,” while acknowledging the pace was not Mueller’s fault.
