Do you think:

a) He will fire him , try to subvert the process and deal with the consequent mess.

OR

b) Resign after cutting a deal to secure a pardon from Pence, admit no wrongdoing and keep his records sealed.


I think b) is more likely.

I see the point of the article below. Given all the other unethical/ illegal things they did .. Why recusal?

Given the collective gold fishesque memory, and our infinite capacity to become numbed to the daily scandals of this administration-it would have made sense te stay involved.

My only guess is that Sessions did not think it through or was intimidated by Comey.

BREAKING: GOP health-care effort suffers another setback, as three Republican senators come out against McConnells repeal-only idea

As divisions between the two main ideological camps within the GOP widened Tuesday, Republicans were scrambling to contain the political fallout from the collapse of a months-long effort to rewrite Barack Obamas signature domestic accomplishment.

President Trump predicted Tuesday morning that Republicans may wait for the federal insurance market to collapse and then work to broker a deal to rewrite the nations landmark health-care law, while Senate leaders pressed ahead with a plan to repeal the Affordable Care Act with no immediate replacement.

But it became quickly apparent that GOP leaders, who were caught off guard by defections of their members Monday night, lacked the votes to abolish parts of the 2010 law outright. Three centrist Republican senators Susan Collins (Maine), Shelley Moore Capito (W.Va.) and Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) all said they would oppose any vote to proceed with an immediate repeal of the law.

Dont assume for one second that Donnie is in any trouble. Most Republicans are fine, despite what they may say outwardly, with the fact that Donald Trump may have colluded with Russia. It no big deal. They dont know what the fuss is all about. After all what could be more important than defeating a Democrat.

So impeaching him, despite whatever Robert Muller might find, will only enrage the base against the party. So not worth it. They wont even try. They will pretend, obfuscate, avoid dealing with it anyway they can.

I did a cursory search and could find nothing of the sort..

But there is only so long you can swim in a cesspool.

If so, shouldn't that power be removed from the president?
