Anything to disrupt the Trump presidency will be fine with a majority of the Americans, say 60% or more. So what is wrong with that? After all this is the norm but sucks when the shoe is on the other foot.

The party of the Benghazi hearings has little to complain about when it comes to this investigation and hearings. We'll see how long they try to distract everybody with their sole focus on leaks instead of the real story.

The new documents may revive questions about the ties between the Trump aide, Paul Manafort, and the party of the former president of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych, who has been in hiding in Russia since being overthrown by pro-Western protestors in 2014. He is wanted in Ukraine on corruption charges.


https://www.washingtonpost.com/world...120_story.html

Meanwhile, Sean Spicer (Trump's own Baghdad Bob) threw Manafort under the bus, claiming that Manafort had very little to do with the campaign, despite the fact he was Campaign Chairman for months.

Keep in mind that Comey was forced to come to Capitol Hill and testify in public by Lindsey Graham (and others) after Trump lied about Obama wiretapping Trump. Had it not been for Trump's silly, dishonest tweet storm, Comey would not have come to the Hill and revealed that Trump and his staff are under investigation for colluding with Russia. Trump brought yesterday's dark cloud down upon himself.
Manafort and Ukraine are tangents.

Furthermore there is no law in Ukraine. "Lawmakers" and "government" are threatened/controlled/under siege by armed right wing militias.

Comey is damaged goods.

There is no story...only DNC banter.

If "the usual" is competent government, I agree. Otherwise, not. The only possible saving grace for Trump & Co. is if the old adage "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence" can be proven to apply.

That is even better, banter leading to a constant din, or a hum that is even more annoying to the listener.
Since Trump acts like a joke, why not drown him in mirth?
Joke is on him of course.

The name Russia sells far better than Benghazi.
