In a secure location, where they can keep him out of the public eye. I think the Rethuglican leadership has seen this coming for weeks, and they're deliberately keeping him as isolated from this as they can, so that when the inevitable transition happens, people do not associate him with Trump.
It's a smart plan, but how well it will work remains to be seen. If there's no dirt on him, they may get away with it, but... if there's even a suggestion that he had knowledge of this, the American people will be on him like a dog on a possum right from Day One.
Which is how I hope it shakes out. I want this episode to utterly, absolutely destroy the Republican Party, just completely devastate them

He'll flip. No doubt. All of these gutless bastards will roll over; they're not tough men at all. They're cowards and bullies, not accustomed to having to pay any price for their actions. They're used to making other people pay the price, while they squirt away to destroy something else. They're not used to operating in this environment, where just being ruthless and amoral is not enough. You have to be tough and smart, as well, and they've never had to do that before... and they do not know how.
When faced with spending the rest of their lives in prison, they will cave in. And they'll roll it up all the way to the top. Caving in one weasel at a time.
Oh, and Manafort's daughter said something much worse than that, too - "You know dad has killed people, right?"
Stay tuned to how that one turns out. The Ukrainian government has subpoenaed those texts.

Yep, Trump is effectively nailing the last nails into the coffin of the GOP!
Shouldn't Nunes be immediately arrested for disclosing classified info to the very person under investigation, let alone to the Press? He knew damn well he was breaking the law!
What is it about the term "Executive Branch" that throws you?
The SS Trumptanic has hit the Russian iceberg and is taking on that cold political water. Trump's election cronies will drown first, followed by the Republican party that's locked in steerage. The only survivors will be Invanka and Jared in a lifeboat with a case of champagne and a suitcase full of cash, picked up by the SS Chelsea Clinton.
Celine Dion will be singing "My Healthcare won't go on and on" at the end!

He risked obstruction of justice charges as well as having the House Intelligence committee investigation replaced by an independent prosecutor in order to give Trump a wee bit of cover for his Obama wiretapped me lie.
“I can tell you that the case is more than that,” Schiff told Chuck Todd on MSNBC. “And I can’t go into the particulars, but there is more than circumstantial evidence now.”
Trump going down!
Thank God... I know, I have been following it. I just wonder how long it will take.. at least they have gotten the ball rolling.

Yawn.
Did Russian's actually hack the voting machines, turning Clinton votes into Trump votes?
everyone here has access to pretty much the same information. OP posted what is a public statement made by the lead dem investigating this . They know more than you are me and he said very clearly there is more info.
Deal with it, denial won't stop the truth from coming out.
Key phrase.
They have kept this up for months, even though this has been investigated by top national security officials who have said, there is no evidence of any Russian interference in our election (and that includes 'collusion' by the Trump team with any Russian government officials). This entire meme has been manufactured by Democrats who are unhappy (shocked) that Hillary lost, and who hate Trump. They cannot accept the results of the election, and they have been saying for months that they were going to have him removed from office. Nancy Pelosi has said it, Maxine Waters has said it, and numerous other Democrats have said it. So, it is a witch hunt and nothing more. They will stop at nothing to find reason or an excuse to have Trump impeached (fat chance, since Republicans control Congress).

Communist traitors, all of them. You would think that maybe they would actually, you know, try to get some work done instead?
Because I don't want to live in a surveillance state.
Because Hillary promised to accept the outcome of the election and now she won't.
Because corporate ***** Republicans and Democrats would love to hand a coup d'état to their corporate, special interest and billionaire masters.
Because it's a shiny penny.
Because it's neo-MacCarthyism.
Because it was invented as an excuse for Democrats caught trying to steal an election to not address the content of e-mails that proved they were trying to steal the election.
Because the press that was found to be helping Hillary cheat during the election cannot be expected to tell the truth now.
Because the FBI cannot be trusted.
Because it's true
