The problem is that the actual people who ARE doing the HARD WORK of INVESTIGATING is NOT Comey. So unless Trump tries to disband ALL FBI people.. ( which would be a huge flare) He's still STUCK and his efforts to coverup/SHUTUP the Investigative facts (not considered CLASSIFIED") was too much for the Trumpster to deal with ! Trump is in a reality right now.. American "Checks and Balances" are actually true.. He can't unilaterally STOP everybody who has the Goods on him and his crony's who are corrupt!!

Coverups will ALWAYS be what takes you down versus the actual misdeeds!! Trump using Twitter is actually a window into his mindset. No KiSS Butt .. immediate enemy and bashings coming.. Bad News come in almost everyday!! His Majesty just can't handle it.. FIRE.. Defame.. Name Call.. Fake News BLAH BLAH is all you get.. At least skeptic's see daily what's going on!! Talk about UNHINGED!!

Do you think that anyone would believe it if his new appointee concluded there was no collusion, even a credible candidate would have trouble. There needs to be an independent investigator, you can't have the president's appointment, there would be no credibility.


This is a first.

It's a waste of time they're never going to get anywhere with the Russia nonsense... at least as far as being able to implicate Trump with some sort of scandal. Which is some sort of dream that some of them have.
Or how the corporate shills have hijacked our government in general? - Trump has certainly done great work in his first few months there. Drain that swamp...what a giant con.

You're likely correct that nothing of any major substance will come out of the investigations. But as a nation, we must complete them nonetheless. The message it would send by NOT doing so would not be good.

The left's political tool is simply obstruction…either through the media or legislative roadblocks.

They either make the news up…or they create a new conspirative narrative when one dies out.

Anyone who can't see this is deaf, blind, dumb or all three.

Comey was asked last week whether Trump colluded with Russia, and said there was no evidence of that.

That's what the investigation will find out. After the comments about Russian financing by his sons, Lindsey Graham is gung ho to investigate the Trump-Russia business dealings. The only thing Donnie accomplished is to slow down (slightly) the FBI portion of the investigation. Everybody else is still hot to trot.
