    Do you have an opinion of your own? What do you think of trump's answers to the questions from George Stephanopoulos of ABC? In particular, his declaration that he would accept information from a foreign power? That he wouldn't necessarily tell the FBI. That accepting foreign intelligence is something "they all do," which is patently false. What do you think?

    Republicans lash Trump for being open to foreign oppo
    GOP senators vowed they would immediately turn to the FBI if approached with foreign dirt.

    Well, ya know, that fake news media just brewed up what fancy people call a self-fulfillment property! That, I can tell you.

    This is why trump is both insulting McGahn and trying to block his testimony...

    POTUS doesn't need McGhan to fire Mueller, he could have done it at any time, he has lots of experience firing people. Wanting to or thinking about is not a crime.

    Nor is actually doing it. Mueller is a subordinate and Trump had a rightful belief that Mueller was conflicted (Mueller was good friends with Comey, and had interviewed and been rejected by Trump to replace Comey).

    Here's a question. Since they never looked at the DNC's server, what is the evidence for the FBI/Mueller's claim that it was hacked by the Russians?

    IIRC the FBI has a hard copy of the DNC server.

    It absolutely could be a crime if it was done in an effort to obstruct justice. Even in the private sector, there are reasons why you can or cannot fire people.

    No, its clearly a crime.

    That is not up for debate.
