Trump's only error so far is being too nice to liberals. I think he is learning the hard way that there must be no compromise at all. Post haste he should get Jeff Sessions to start proceedings against the Clintons, Obama and his crooked cronies, and anyone inside the govt leaking information. There will be chaos, but the only way forward is to put the criminals of the last 8 years in jail.

Trump is a draft dodger that makes him a coward.
he firing of Comey 'may' be the tipping point. This is a random thought but perhaps Comey is gone due to NOT being in anyone's camp! Not the Democrats, not the Republican's camp and not in Trump's camp. Possible?

You can't declare that the Republican party is out to get Trump until they ACTUALLY hang him out to dry. Right now they are still carrying water for him and saving him from having to appoint an independent investigator, be subpoenaed for information, or even be put under impeachment proceedings. Sure some Republicans are grumbling about Trump's behavior, but until the likes of McConnell or Ryan get fed up then this is still a Trump and Republicans versus Democrats situation.

To ignore the failure of the Republican Congress to do anything but water down the ACA and basically rubber stamp a Democrat favored budget despite public opinion polls speaks volumes of their intentions.
The democrats have zero power. None. All the delays and barriers are from the Republican majority.
There is no deflection from the Republican Party on this. From Fox News to McConnell, Ryan, McCain. How many more before you cede the reality of it?
You may be a supporter of both. Many are. Not so the leadership of the Republican Party.

Now what should Trump do?: Keep on keeping on!

Come on, man. Did you tie one on last night? LOL. How many times did the Republican Party vote on and demand a repeal of the ACA?? Multiple times. Now you accuse Trump of not putting in the time to negotiate a repeal??
It could have and should have been done inside a week. That was what they claimed they would do. This lies with Congress. Not Trump.
Can't debate the idiots comment, though.....

Well traditionally Presidents who want to get ahead of a controversy and clear their name asap tend to nominate them to investigate to get away from the taint of partisanism. That's because an independent investigator is more trustworthy than your political party holding water for you. So for Trump, it would be a chance to clear his name and get this controversy behind him once and for all. For the Democrats it would be a chance to have their concerns investigated and seen to be true or not.
Really, why you wouldn't want an independent investigator in charge here is the perplexing thing, but that is assuming that Trump is innocent. If he is guilty then it would make sense why he wouldn't want one; he's trying to hide something.
