Only the jealous Trump hating MSM and the minority of anti trumper's care about what Comey says now.

Oh-oh. Multiple news outlets are reporting that a Comey memo says that Trump asked him to end the Flynn investigation. This is breaking news so no details are yet available. But if true, this could be todays cluster for The Donald.

Would this constitute obstruction?
To answer your question, is it impeachable, yes and no
With a GOP congress no, but if the dems take over after the 2018 election yes.
IT is clearly a crime to ask an investigator to go easy on somebody when you are in the position of a president.
Trump will of course deny it, or just say I was merely suggesting he go easy.
But with this, the Comey firing, just imagine Obama or Hillary doing similar.
What would all you Trump lovers say to that
Right.
I mean, say the head invesitigator of an investigation into someone met in secret on aa tarmac with that persons husband. And then assume she didn't recuse herself from the investigation.
Oh wait, that happened! And where was the media going ballistic on that?

Note to Trump:
Please Trump don’t get impeached. Stay in the job, go ahead, and destroy the Republican Party.
Please Trump keep up the good work, DON’T YOU DARE QUIT
DON’T YOU DARE LET THEM IMPEACH YOU!
But Goddam Trump, just control yourself buddy, this isn’t Atlantic City
Chill out, this isn’t the mafia, you have to be smooth on this level. Smooth criminal! Your in the big leagues now, just behave, just long enough to destroy the GOP!
Comey lost any credibility he had when he started making excuses for Clinton.

If you are referring to Lynch, she was not the head investigator. She was the head prosecutor.

Shoot, Comey could have accepted that invitation to testify in private and dropped this bomb then.
So why leak this memo to two anonymous sources?

Because he never said a word about the investigation. That's why.
