Firing Coney was just one little step
Do you even listen to what the president says?

Only high crimes and misdemeanors can lead to impeachment. There were no crimes by me (No Collusion, No Obstruction), so you can’t impeach. It was the Democrats that committed the crimes, not your Republican President! Tables are finally turning on the Witch Hunt!

SEAN HANNITY, FOX NEWS: Mr. President, you have the ability to release the FISA applications. There was the original applications, the three subsequent renewal applications. We are told, Andrew McCabe said, no dossier, no FISA warrant. That was a backdoor to your campaign before the election.
The dossier also was leaked to “The Washington Post,” parts of it, and Isikoff and David Corn, to the American people, and, of course, never verified.
Do you have plans to release those FISA applications, Gang of Eight information, the 302s of Bruce Ohr and others, and the five buckets are John Solomon and Sara Carter, as they call it?
PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP: I do, I have plans to declassify and release. I have plans to absolutely release. But I have some very talented people working for me, lawyers. And they really didn’t want me to do it early on.
Devin Nunes, by the way, and Meadows, you look at Jim Jordan, and all of the people, they worked so hard. And a lot of people wanted me to do it a long time ago. I’m glad I didn’t do it. We got a great result without having to do it but we well.
One of the reasons that my lawyers didn’t want me to do it is they said, if I do it, they will call it a form of obstruction, so they will say, oh, you released these documents so we would make all of this information transparent. You know, and politics you always hear transparency. It would make it transparent. And then they call it obstruction, knowing the people we are dealing with.
So, frankly, I thought it would be better if we held it to the end. No, but at the right time, we will be absolutely releasing it. I did the right thing by not doing it so far.
But you understand, they would call it something that it wouldn’t be. It’s the only time you would be transparent where they would say bad things about transparency.

If you can’t see that the pendulum has swung and Trump is now on offense I can’t help you but in the meantime
You can help us by not whining
Look no further than the example you gave: "I do, I have plans to declassify and release. I have plans to absolutely release. But I have some very talented people working for me, lawyers. And they really didn’t want me to do it early on."
He's been talking about declassifying for a long time now. What's the excuse now for not doing it? Is he being advised, and taking the advise, to hold it for political reasons closer to 2020? Is that wise? Any number of things can happen between now and then that could damage Trumps popularity with independents and more conservative dems. Trump can't win with (R)'s only. He needs those fence sitters and others. Declassifying now that Mueller's witch hunt is done is the right move. Let's see how long it takes him to do it!
Obviously he can't do all of it alone, but there should be no fewer than a dozen America haters from the previous administration in jail at this very moment. There is no legitimate excuse they are not. Only political cowardice and voting population ignorance.
In the meantime, I will continue to speak out against the cheap talk until something meaningful happens within the legal system.
