YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Trump tried to throw Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein under the bus by pinning the Comey firing on him. It backfired. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

But as Rosenstein was thrust into the spotlight shortly after news of Comey's dismissal broke, he was taken aback and even threatened to resign, according to an unnamed person close to the White House who was cited by The Washington Post.

The Justice Department denied on Thursday morning that Rosenstein had threatened to resign. But Rosenstein was angry that the White House had carried out Comey's termination the way they did, according to CNN.”*
