how many more in congress I wonder who will make that same call?

Trump claims to be the most vilified politician ever.

He's obviously not heard about Jeremy Corbyn, then

^ Yeah of course he's the most badly treated - I mean what happened to Lincoln & JFK hardly counts does it. Seems his staff are feeling the pressure so much that their friends are keeping in close contact as they are worried about the stress they are under.

I think you know full well the difference between 24/7 media character assassination, and being literally assassinated.

Oh I certainly do but the problem is Trump doesn't and every day demonstrates what a poor leader he is (irrespective of how any investigations turn out).

God help the world if Corbyn does win - think of the amount of secrets he could give the Russians if he met Trump

These two articles about what it's like to work and interact with Trump stood out for me this week. Gossipy they may be but both have a strikingly credible veracity about them to me.

Trump doesn't seem to have plugged the leaks does he?

What secrets do you think there are that he doesn't already know?

"ooh, the KGB have Internet hacks in every pie... but they don't know how anyone watches The One Show?"

For what it's worth, I don't think Trump is actually corrupt himself (not intentionally, anyway). For one thing, he's not smart enough. His big mouth would've betrayed him long ago.
Thinking that sacking Comey would make it all go away shows how stupidly naive he is, though.
It's the same stupid naivety that made him leak secrets to the Russians and ask Comey to drop the investigation into Flynn.
I doubt Obstructing Justice even entered his head, he's still thinking like he's running his own business.
