        I don’t think Trump cares at all about damage to the NSA. That stuff isn’t addressed to him.

        JFC this shit is amazing I am stunned & worried for the country. I also have a hunch team Mueller is holding off the US indictments until AF1 is wheels down in US. Mueller has them all nailed and it’s going to get much uglier in the coming weeks.

        There is probably footage of every moment he’s ever spent in Russia / with Russians on tape, from four angles, with audio.

        I agree whatever sticks Putin has, a putative pee tape is probably the least of them. At this point it probably wouldn't even dent Trump's base at all. Some would spin it as a positive if it were released. So, what's worse?

        Unfortunately there is no stopping Trump at this point. Only Nov elections and January D Congress will stem tide. I expect the next few weeks to be crazy as Trump tries to head off next wave of indictments by likely firing both Rosenstein & Mueller. No Rs will stop him.

        Wow!! As scary as this sounds, Americans & gop in particular have been pretending that things are better than what is. Just look at everyday of this presidency! It’s like he is being forced to create one crisis after another & gop are acting like everything is fine!
