Why is everyone concerned about taking the time to assess... blah blah blah

Trump is a cancer - on the country, on the democracy. He needs to go now. I understanding having to ensure that Comey's notes are indeed accurate, but this talk of incessant and unending committees investigating this or that is infuriating. If Trump indeed asked Comey to 'let go' of the Flynn investigation, he needs to go pronto. The country can ill afford more months of sloth-like congressional committees and the slow trickle of disastrous cover-ups and other Trumpian shenanigans.

The stock market can't take it; foreign leaders can't take it; I suspect ISIS is having a blast with this and prolonging the inevitable would invite even more the prospects of serious attacks to the country. This is not like the 70s. If Comey's stuff can be somewhat corroborated, Trump needs to go as soon as possible.

It's slow but it's sure. The last thing we want is some kind of summary proceeding that looks like a kangaroo court.

Would your suggestions pass legal muster so that there could be no argument that the process was improper, unfair, unconstitutional, or not in accordance with an existing statute?

All this nonsense is multi level, wide & deep.
LOTS below the surface, & we need ALL of it out.

I've felt for months that huge investigations have been happening, despite appearances.
Actually, I feel things are happening fast. I get Your frustration, but be patient..& ACTIVISM helps a lot!
