I don't know, little things like the unleashed weekend tweet storms, the cries of 'witch hunt', the daily 'there was no collusion' mantra, and the random threats and firings, all tip most of us off, that Trump is not exactly happy with the situation.

Or just someone who legitimately (in their own mind) believes they are operating 100% within the law. Not saying you need to believe that, but it is a 100% reasonable explanation as to why he would want the investigation to continue. Lost of people believe they are 100% right about things, until someone proves them wrong.

However, I am not surprised at your attempted spin on this at all.

How does a guy confirm something by writing a note to himself?

I have never seen any viable evidence that Trump 'wants' the investigation to continue, only evidence to the contrary.
There may well be no evidence that Trump colluded. But he's clearly very angry about the investigation and it's been widely reported that he wants it concluded as soon as possible.

Really?
Comey did and he said so.
The reason to make memos is to make a record of facts that can be referred to in the future to stimulate memory of events.

Comey said what?

Well now you have. Comey's own words in the memo.

That's commonsense. Who would want a witch hunt going on while trying to deal with the serious issues of running the country. Any volunteers want to be in that position ? Please step forward so we can separate the idiots from the rest.

If you want to be informed watch MSNBC.

Actually, Rachel Maddow is ****ing retarded and I have proof!

https://www.imediaethics.org/msnbc-r...hristwire-org/

She believed the Christwire satire site was legitimate even though they print stuff like...

"It is estimated that the army must spend more then $500,000,000,000 per year in programs aimed at diversity recruitment and training. A dramatic increase of budget would be achieved if the army turned back to only housing Caucasian males."

Mission - ChristWire

It's sentence after sentence of insane hyperbole credited to authors that don't exist!

Google the names.

The only thing that pops up is Christwire and stories about internet satire.

You make a really good point t206!

Everyone that is truly innocent welcomes a criminal investigation.

Just today, I was hoping that the local police would take me down to the station to see if I matched any descriptions.
