Nixon Attorney: Trump's criticism of Don McGahn 'risky' William Jeffress, Former Nixon Attorney, talks to Rachel Maddow about the “risky” behavior he sees coming from the president and this White House since the Mueller report’s release. share tweet email save Embed Few figures play as an important a role in the Mueller report as former White House Counsel Don McGahn.
