    The case simply continues to grow

    This from this morning's WSJ:

    WASHINGTON—Lawmakers said they would investigate a report that President Trump directed his former lawyer Michael Cohen to lie to Congress about the president’s involvement in a real-estate deal with Russia during the 2016 campaign.

    The chairmen of two House investigative panels said Friday they would probe the report’s allegations. Rep. Adam Schiff (D., Calif.), who leads the House Intelligence Committee, said the panel would “do what’s necessary to find out if it’s true.”

    “The allegation that the President of the United States may have suborned perjury before our committee in an effort to curtail the investigation and cover up his business dealings with Russia is among the most serious to date,” he tweeted.
    That is only the lead to the article.

    My budding hope is that trump is gong down---by his own hand.

    Yes - if Trump goes down, it will indeed be from his own actions. There remain many witnesses willing to testify against him. One reaps what one sows.

    Sorry guys but your hopes in this regard are short lived. When it comes to matters of such extreme importance it might be advisable to contain your exuberance until credible sources have weighed in.

    I will give you this Dave, I certainly understand why folks do not like Trump. I don't understand the extreme hate however. The fake news like this one here is a real problem. All that said if I were a betting man, and I am not, with all the forces working against the President, and not of the least the media, I can find no way he can preserve his Presidency. Too many folks hate him to the core and the media has proven they will do anything within their power to get him. Frankly I can't believe he is still in office. He is a tough cookie.

    The battle that is being fought should be against the media, not Trump. Were we to have an accountable media this whole fiasco would have never had the chance to get started. Hillary and Trump never should have neven been a choice to run the greatest country on earth, neither was/is worthy. If the real truth ever came out I think we'd see that the whole thing was about money, doing what's right for America probably never even came up.
