And again, none of you have answered why if his goal was to stop the investigation he didn't order Comey's replacement to do so?
In the first place, Trump has no power to call off an on-going FBI investigation. It would be an impeachable offense.
"The revelation deepened a political crisis for Trump’s White House by introducing the possibility that the president may have obstructed justice, an impeachable offense."
The FBI director serves at-will, and firing Comey is well within Trump's power. Trump probably hoped to replace Comey with someone he thought was a bit more amenable to his concerns, perhaps by reducing the staff assigned to the Flynn investigation. But that backfired bigly, and he was, if you recall, reportedly surprised by the blowback. The fact is that if he had fired Comey in the first week or two of his administration, few people would have cared. Trump could simply have said that he would rather work with someone else.
In the second place, Trump has no power at all to tell Congress to call off their investigations, and the FBI would naturally be a significant player in those proceedings, whether Trump likes it or not.
What if there is all kinds of stuff found (I don't think so but I don't know)....just what if.
If nothing turns up, our mature and well spoken President can issue a terse, simple press release saying that he is pleased that we can move on and he is looking forward to governing and uniting this great country.
The right spend millions investigating Hillary and Benghazi over and over again....at least eight investigations that I can think of....each costing millions. Yet in the end... found nothing.
(Ditto with the emails)
And also, blame the left all you want, the left has no power at all right now. Zero. You control the House, You control the Senate, you control the Presidency. Anything that happens, is on the right, not the left. Rosenstein is a Republican and so is Mueller - so the people that are investigating him are republican. But they seem to me to be straight arrows and fair....so all we can do is let the investigation go forth and let the chips fall where they may.....innocent or guilty...but we need to get to the truth of this matter.
But no Patriotic American that really cares about this country at all, is gonna put party before their
Country and ignore the Russian Connections, possible Collusion within the Trump Campaign and
Russia and Obstruction of Justice. No matter the Price, this has to be done. Instead of fighting it every
step of the way Trump and his people could make this go quicker and easier if they would cooperate
with the investigations...If I were innocent and in his shoes I would be eager for the investigation to continue so I would be able to clear my name and get on with Governing the Country.
100% SPOT ON, but the TRUMP ZOMBIES are denser than bricks!
Trump has never once offered up the explanation I gave you over what I think he meant.
Probably because he thinks it should be clear to anyone what he meant.
Stop being ridiculous.
Take your own advice , dear. I didnt say Trump offered up the exact explanation you gave, I said you will believe whatever crap he tells you and find ways to justify it. He says he fired Comey over the Russia thing, but later denies obstructing the investigation even though he is on record saying he fired Comey over it, so your cultist brain begins to create scenarios in which Trump can both admit he fired Comey over the Russia investigation but also not mean he was trying to obstruct it. Ridiculous? The theory you have come up with to protect your cult leader is the very definition of ridiculous.
Take a look in the mirror at all the ridiculous crap you believe before referring to others with that term .
I'm sick of the divide!!! You have your side and they have theirs. IT SUCKS!
We are all Americans
WTF is wrong with us?
As an indie, I dont have a side. I have learned that the right and left operate in negative terms. No matter how much I agree with a conserve or a lib, the second I disagree with them on one issue I am a lib tard/Rethuglican , depending on wnich side I currently disagreed with.
But it is funny to see the guy calling for bipartisanship and an end to the partisanship calling the left idiots, dummies, they suck, etc. Not exactly the way you sell the concept.
"Hey, you stupid lib tards! Quit insulting conservatives and try getting along, idiot morons! "
Do we make from this election cycle onward for any seat of government, from mayor to Congressman to President pass a background check? Open to public audit on everything from personal and private, health status, to public policy?
Do we automatically disqualify someone who otherwise would be fit to serve based on subjective opinion from either side or from when they held a lower office and did something questionable? Or caught in something damaging?
Do we allow the media to publish harmful bias to either side? Incomplete truths or outright lies to be edited later on?

Yup.
OP needs to re-read How to Win Friends and Influence People.
It's not rocket science.
