Former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said the federal raid on Trump attorney Michael Cohen's home and office shows the Russia probe continues to focus on people other than the president.

Spicer warned Trump to "let the process play out" when it comes to Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into alleged collusion between the president and Russia.

"I'd urge the president to listen to his counsel," Spicer said. "The investigation continues to not focus on him or [on] collusion."

Spicer said the president should stay "focused on governing the country."

1. Actually its all about him

[Bradical79]

2. And even when it isn't

he will make sure it is.

[CatMor]

3. True, but in this case he doesn't want it about him.

[Cha]

10. Exactly.

[TranssexualKaren]

4. If it isnt about him...

Then why ISN’T he letting it play out?

Fraude once said criminals have compulsion to confess.

5. What the hell is spicer up to??

[FakeNoose]

6. He works for Faux News now

7. Hey, if you are innocent, thats EXACTLY what you would do.

Go on Donald, take Spicey's advice! After all, you are innocent right?

[Algernon Moncrieff]

8. Or, Mr. Never-Apologize-Never-Explain could succeed where Dick Nixon and Bill Clinton failed

He could level with the American people, apologize, and say its time to move on. There is no way he's removed from office via impeachment prior to 2020 unless his cover-up efforts make him such a liability that GOP leadership decides they'll cut their losses and move on to Pence.

9. That would change nothing. You are saying he should admit to his crimes.

[Dave Starsky]

12. Is Fox News hiring sandwich artists as "analysts" now?

Because who the fuck cares what Sean Spicer has to say about anything?

13. Locking - this is from Fox News, which is not regarded as a reputable source for LBN

It's also just Spicer's opinions, and he holds no office or special expertise in the matter.

Please repost in GD. Thanks.
