Peter Strzok: Trump is 'compromised' on national security
By John Bowden - 09/08/20 05:12 PM EDT
Former FBI agent Peter Strzok, who was fired from the bureau during the special counsel investigation into Russian meddling during the 2016 campaign, said Tuesday that he believes the president is "compromised," and would protect his own interests over those of the U.S.
In an interview with "CBS This Morning" on Tuesday, Strzok was questioned by co-host Tony Dokoupil over the title of his book, "Compromised: Counterintelligence and the threat of Donald J. Trump," and whether he had any evidence to back the claim up.
"There's a very big claim at the center of it and that is that the president of the United States is compromised, unable to put the country's interest above his own. What is your best evidence of that charge?" Dokoupil asked at the top of the conversation.
Strzok responded, claiming that those who have supervised counterintelligence investigations as he had during his time with the FBI believe that Trump would put his own interests above the country's.
