If Team Trump was actually given information at the time/to the degree that I consider credible, it is reasonable to believe he was aware of Rod Rosenstein's duplicity. If the president has been playing the fish, I hope he still has time to set the hook.
I suppose it's fair to presume that in the management ranks of the federal government, the supply of up and coming skunks vastly outnumbers the supply of straight-shooters.
All Team Trump needed to know where RR was placed in the spectrum of loyalties is apparent in his wife’s affiliations.
RR is a covert Clinton Camp lackey, seriously.
Some people are confused that RR recommended Comey be fired. What they don’t know is that HRC HATES Comey because he reopened the email case 10 days before the election. If she could, she would have someone whack him for that. RR was just following Clinton Camp preferences when he recommended Comey be fired.
I still fault Sessions that RR could bring in Mueller. Mueller is the eyes and ears of the Clinton Camp. Sessions may be doing a good job in other areas but in this, he eff’d up in a major way.
Once RR was in the driver’s seat with ‘Russian interference’, within a week he brought in Mueller. Trump did not order RR to bring in Mueller. That was solely RR’s call. To allocate budget and start a new investigation involving the President, RR needed probable cause. What evidence did he have? What scope and marching orders did he give to Mueller? Bastard RR had signed off on FISA warrants to spy on the Trump team! Hello? This was a setup from the beginning and the fault lays at Sessions’s feet (sorry for the cold water on Sessions cheerleaders) who likely wasn’t fast enough to catch the play in action executed by the dems.
