In the interview, Greg Craig told the hosts, 'I think it is clearly becoming the focus of this Ukraine conversation, the use of the presidential power in ways that are unacceptable and inappropriate and unconstitutional and inconsistent with his oath.'

, Greg Craig, special counsel to Bill Clinton during his impeachment and Obama White House counsel, weighed in on President Donald Trump's impeachment and advised House Democrats to focus on Trump's dealings with Ukraine rather than the Mueller report. Throughout the interview, Craig compared the current impeachment inquiry into Trump with his experience advising Clinton during his impeachment.

The House of Representatives launched an impeachment inquiry into the president on September 24, following aissued by a member of the United States intelligence community. The complaint centered on reports that Trump had repeatedly requested that the president of Ukraine open an investigation into Hunter Biden, the son of former Vice President and current Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.

When asked about whether Democrats should also use the Mueller report, Craig stated,"The president's theme with respect to the Mueller report was 'no collusion and no obstruction.' What we have developing now is evidence of both collusion and obstruction." He went on to add, once again, that Democrats will have to focus their investigation on Ukraine.
