The former White House counsel to President Nixon who was charged for helping cover up the Watergate scandal says he thinks President Trump's White House is "in cover-up mode."

"In fact [the White House] is in cover-up mode," John Dean told MSNBC's Chris Hayes on Monday night when asked about the administration's response to ongoing investigations of Russian ties and Trump's wiretapping accusations.

FBI Director James Comey earlier Monday testified that his agency is investigating links between Trump’s presidential campaign and the Russian government.

He also stated flatly that he had “no information” to support Trump's assertion, first made on Twitter, that former President Obama had wiretapped him at Trump Tower.
Dean said the White House's decision to distance itself from the testimony signals a "cover-up."

"There’s just never been any question in my mind about that. I’ve been inside a cover-up. I know how they look and feel. And every signal they're sending is: ‘We’re covering this thing up,'" Dean said.

"Experienced investigators know this. They know how people react when they’re being pursued, and this White House is not showing their innocence, they’re showing how damn guilty they are, is what we’re seeing."

Let's hope we can suplex the Trump administration like we did Nixon's. The future depends it.
