@RodRosenstein @renato_mariotti is a smart lawyer, a kind person, and a patriot. He cares deeply about this country.

He doesn't miss your point. But there are pivotal moments in history when mechanically going through the motions isn't as important as doing the RIGHT thing.
@RodRosenstein @renato_mariotti You speak of "principles respected by our predecessors" - but what about the principle of "avoiding the appearance of impropriety"?

You sat next to Trump on Air Force One on the day there were rumors that you would be fired. By the end of the day, those rumors were gone.
@RodRosenstein @renato_mariotti Was that when you told him you would "land the plane" for him? Was it the perfect metaphor since you were sitting on the plane together talking about the Mueller probe he wanted ended?

The "appearance of impropriety" - a guiding principle of the DOJ. You failed your own test.
@RodRosenstein @renato_mariotti You think the Clinton/Lynch tarmac meeting looked bad?

THIS looked much, MUCH worse.

"After landing in Florida, Trump described his conversation on the plane with Rosenstein as 'great.'"
