In this case, I believe President Trump should take the advice of Republican Rep Trey Gowdy. Namely, if he's not guilty of any crimes, he should stop acting so guilty.
The President's continuous attacks on the Justice Department aren't helping him with anyone but highly biased fans in his core base and the right wing media.
For the many millions of U.S. citizens who understand separation of powers, the Constitution, and the fact that the U.S. is built on a premise of law and order where no one is above the law.......no rhetoric will change these truths:
--An investigation into Russian intervention and possible campaign collusion is not an "attack on the country". Just the opposite.
--A warranted search of the President's personal attorney is not a "break-in" or an "attack on the country".
--Jeff Sessions' recusal was legally appropriate considering his misstatements regarding his interactions with Russians during the campaign.
It is not the Attorney General's job to loyally and inappropriately shield the president. The Attorney General works for the people of the United States under clear guidelines and mandates.
It's amazing how closely Trump seems to be headed down the Nixon path. If he fires Mueller and fires (or forces the resignations of) Sessions and Rosenstein, he should be prepared for history to repeat itself with the same end result.
