WH Statement re: mtg with Rosenstein, Coats & Wray is troubling

JUST IN: White House releases statement on President Trump's meeting with Deputy AG Rosenstein, Director of National Intelligence Coats and FBI Director Wray.









RepAdamSchiff

This statement raises two serious concerns:

First, if these are same materials DOJ warned could risk lives and investigations, why share them now?

Second, is Kelly attending? The President must not abuse his power to obtain investigatory materials for his legal defense team.

So what if knows what the evidence is against him... the charges are piling up every day. If he tries to obstruct it will just make things worse for himself.

We always knew the orangutan was not going down before he threw poop everywhere. And on everyone. Buckle up, and wear a hazmat.

1.knowing Trump, he will expect immediate results. He wont get them. He will spend an inordinate amount of time calling these guys, talking about and tweeting about. We can expect copious leaks from this show. If this distracts the presidunce even more it might be a good thing

Also, this so-called frame up was investigating people who are bad characters, page, Manafort, Flynn are all in trouble. You wanna keep them bad eggs in the news, go for it
