John Dowd a personal attorney to US President Donald Trump, today resigned his position amid a shake‑up in the president's legal team as Trump has sought more firepower to deal with the special counsel's Russia investigation.
In an email to The Washington Post, Dowd wrote, "I love the President and wish him well."
Reports says, Dowd's departure was a largely mutual decision made after the president lost confidence in his ability to handle special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation and Dowd became frustrated with Trump's recent efforts to bring on new attorneys.
