This is why Trump needed to make friends with the establishment. It's all out war on him and it's his own fault. His presidency is being crippled and his incompetence is a large part of this.

POLITICO: It's very rich in detail and hopefully it will come out soon,” the friend of Comey, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told POLITICO. "There are other memos about his meetings too. He wrote down every word Trump said to him as soon as he could."

Well guess we're not done…

I TOLD MY FELLOW REPUBLICANS ABOUT THIS. DAY IN AND DAY OUT. THIS WOULD HAPPEN. Throughout 2016. Did they listen?

Nooooo they did not. We'll see if this gets him impeached. I want to see it before I believe it.

During the primaries you did?

And general. I kept screaming about him, lol. I told them he would wreck the party and use us like he's done to everyone else in his life.

Haha I see. I think this was always Ben Shapiro's biggest fear about Trump as well.

We'll see. The GOP's soul has been badly damaged by this but he's not gone yet.

I'm proud of the FBI and our intelligence agencies for standing up to him and his reign of terror. But he isn't gone yet.

comey recently said, he wanted to testify in public and...i don't think he is going to have a choice if graham and chaffetz are serious.

Excellent, looks like also the Senate.

Chaffetz demanding the memo is suggestive Chaffetz is fleeing the ship and determined not to let Trump bring him down.

Again, ignore the kid.

Comey's going to testify if the hearing is public. Really this situation has no downside. Either Trump is impeached or he carries on deeply wounded and powerless.

Yup. I think Comey will be very happy to turn over the memos…

Check out @cathymcmorris's Tweet: https://twitter.com/cathymcmorris/status/864641107635974144?s=09

Of course Director Comey should testify. I believe an open, transparent government is most effective for the people we represent.

I know this sounds petty, but I am feeling prety suicidal over all this. Not because I like trump, but because I fear the next 20 years will be nothing but democrat/liberal control due to fallout.

Pence is better for us than Trump. Much better (if not complicit).

I really don't think he is.

Complicit or better?

Let's not celebrate prematurely. He still has to sign that resignation letter.

I still believe this will take months if not 2019 to bring him down. Let's not celebrate too early…

Legit question, not a partisan hack-type thing:

Is it considered obstruction of justice if he just asked Comey to stop without doing anything?

Stop what? There was nothing to stop except the investigation.
