WH Lawyer Scrambles To Walk Back Trump Comments

Jan 24, 2018 -- Trump repeatedly told reporters he'd love to talk to Robert Mueller under oath. Trump biographer Tim O'Brien (who has faced Trump in court) says "Trump does everything without the advice of his counsel." Jill Wine-Banks & Natasha Bertrand join Lawrence O'Donnell.

Anti-Mueller narratives that fell apart in last 24 hrs:
1. Texts from two agents deleted to cover up plot against Trump. (Glitch impacted thousands of FBI agents, not two.)
2. FBI had “secret society” (Joke in one text.)
3. Nunes memo (Won’t share w/FBI, DOJ or Senate GOP.)
