Trump as Russian Asset: McCabe’s Claim and Ongoing Debate
In a new book and subsequent interviews, former acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe asserts the possibility of President Trump being a Russian asset, citing this as the impetus for the FBI’s counterintelligence investigation. McCabe details his concerns regarding Trump’s actions, including the firing of James Comey, as potentially obstructive and indicative of a crime. He refutes Kellyanne Conway’s accusations and defends Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s actions in appointing Robert Mueller. McCabe’s claims have sparked controversy, with the White House dismissing his statements as unreliable.
