Trump’s former White House lawyer Ty Cobb said that special counsel Robert Mueller is an 'American hero' and that the probe he is leading is not a 'witch hunt'
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.
Cobb, who joined the White House months after Mueller was appointed special counsel in 2017 and left last May, had nothing but praise for the former FBI director who Trump derides on a regular basis. “I think the world of Bob Mueller,” he said, adding that he believed Mueller to be a “very justice oriented person.”Sign up for POLITICO Playbook and get the latest news, every morning — in your inbox.By signing up you agree to receive email newsletters or alerts from POLITICO.

While Cobb said “it’s conceivable” Mueller’s report will contain new revelations, he predicted that it’s more likely the report will not, speculating that it would be “shorter rather than longer” because of Mueller’s level of detail in sentencing memos and so-called speaking indictments throughout the investigation.
