Today, President Trump called for the end of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation. We believe this is unconstitutional interference by the President into specific cases at the DOJ because he is trying to use the power of his office to protect himself and his allies.
On January 20th, the President raised his hand and swore an oath to the Constitution. The Constitution requires that he “take care that the laws of the United States are faithfully executed”. The Constitution is not a buffet, he doesn’t get to pick and choose what to follow. 
Calling for the end of the investigation is consistent with a pattern of behavior where Trump has demonstrated that he thinks he is above the law. #NobodyIsAbovetheLaw It is also consistent with his belief that he can interfere or threaten the Department of Justice.
