“I believe he will stick to the limits he stated and not let this become a longer investigation and more far reaching than Mueller’s...”
No offense, but the Mueller probe is the blueprint the Dems wanted all along. And Trump gave it to them. Now that the FBI is involved, this “investigation” will last until the Dems have extracted every last ounce of partisan political value. And the GOP will help them. If Trump orders the FBI to shut it down, the Dems will cry “obstruction” as they head into midterms. The Dems were on a sailboat in a dead ocean before this. Trump just blew wind in their sails.
That is our nightmare, of course. I hope that Trump will ignore the “obstruction” canards because this is not about a crime involving him, just a nominee and not a true indictment but a building of facts about a confirmation decision.
If Feinstein really wanted an honest evaluation of facts then she would have refused to mention the letter, or, brought the letter and Ford to the full attention of the Senate, not the media. And if the media stole it without her knowledge as she lamely says, then deny all and refuse to allow it into the hearings as relevant.
I hope that works for Trump.
