And I believed he would keep his word.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to Dowd, Mueller promised he &#8220;wouldn&#8217;t let any grass grow&#8221; as he conducted the probe.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Every meeting and communication we had . . . we stressed how important it was and how his inquiry was a great burden on the president, that interfered with the president&#8217;s ability to lead this country, particularly in foreign affairs,&#8221; Dowd said. &#8220;He said he took that very seriously. On and on, he gave me his word that he would do it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But Dowd asserted late last year, Mueller said despite getting 1.4 million documents from Trump&#8217;s legal team, he believed he would have to talk to the president.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And we said, &#8216;what do you not know that we have not given you? That only the president knows?&#8217; And he could never answer that question,&#8221; Dowd said. &#8220;That&#8217;s when, I saw a stall going on, and I just lost complete faith in him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/newsfront\/john-dowd-hannity-special-counsel-robert-mueller\/2018\/09\/05\/id\/880444\/\">http:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/newsfront\/john-dowd-hannity-special-counsel-robert-mueller\/2018\/09\/05\/id\/880444\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ex-Trump Lawyer John Dowd: Mueller &#8216;Didn&#8217;t Keep His Word&#8217;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-103312","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/103312","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=103312"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/103312\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=103312"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=103312"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=103312"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
