    LIFE IN 2018: "The tweet could set up a constitutional crisis. Or it could set up a now-familiar process of lawyers, essentially, pushing off the request to avoid such a crisis. Or it could be forgotten by the week's end." https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/trump-demands-an-investigation-into-whether-the-doj-or-fbi?utm_term=.oqkKa0qo2#.emD18qwmY …pic.twitter.com/5y8xVtUbBE

        why wouldn't law enforcement look into the dealings of a shady business person, supported by other shady actors - it is their job

        The President doesn't "demand" investigations into his perceived enemies. That's not how we do things here. We have laws. We are now in a constitutional crisis because Trump wants to be a dictator and Republicans won't check him.

        Just another tactic of Trump's, trying 2 get everyone 2 look here while he does his switch and bait routine again 2 avoid the facts, truth and justice. Of course, its all a scam and Trump is an excellent con-man. Unfortunately, he is an unfit president. @realDonaldTrump @

        Trump is slowly destroying whatever credibility the Presidency has by his tweets and dictatorial demands.

        What form would an "official demand" like this even take? I've never seen a president say "I hereby demand..."

        It’ll be the latter. This tweet will be swept under the rug just like the The McCain insult, obama wire-tapping, Shithole countries, & every other scandalous thing that’s come out of the WhineHouse. None of it matters when u have the most complicit gop in history. #VoteThemOut

        @brianstelter there is NO way possible that The President reviewing his branch could be considered a constitutional crisis

        We must stop this. We must, at all costs, cover up the actions of the Deep State. Thank you NYT and other rporters for helping cover up and excuse wrong doing in the FBI and Intelligence community. We must be able to spy on people we don't like.

        It's funny that the anti-Trumpers you quoted claim Trump's lawful order will somehow cause a constitutional crisis because it's supposedly politically-motivated. Ben Wittes was instantly proven wrong when Ratface Rosenstein complied with the order rather than resigning. Clueless!
