(22,976 posts)I have serious doubts. Theyve already turned a blind eye (repeatedly) to #45s insanity so far. They dont seem a bit concerned about draining the treasury of a trillion dollars. They dont seem a bit concerned about serial stalker Roy Moores Senate candidacy.
Theyve put party before country time after time. They view EVERY issue through an extremely partisan lens. Why would they shift course if shown that #45 ran afoul of the law? And in the alternative reality that #45 and his handlers have created, where there is no collusion, no law-breaking, no problem at all?

But I think we already knew about him asking turtle to intervene to stop it, and turtle wouldn't do it. He's not on the intelligence committee, and he wouldn't interfere w/that committee. Good for him. Boy, would HE be in a sh*tload of trouble, if he had tried to intervene.
