He was hoping Congress would do the right thing on their own?If this can be substantiated, big trouble for dandy don and likely impeachment. One question i would have for comey, is why he sat on this for 3 months?
If it is true, and was done in such a way that it was an attempt to obstruct justice
Why do you think Comey was just sitting around? Did you miss his testimony?Ok, well if trump did what is being alleged from this comey memo, i dont think the fbi director should sit around and hope congress would do the right thing when they are not aware of a potential obstruction of justice charge.
Looks like, "He said, she said".
As Comey himself might say, there's nothing here a decent prosecutor would ever take to court.

I assume he would sit on it as long as he would sit on everything else that was part of the investigation. Until it was over.Serious concerns about trumps actions and we need an independent investigation. I am also concerned about comeys actions. Was hs going to sit on this memo as long as trump kept him as director? Now that he got fired, is that why this has been leaked? Lots of questions need answers.
Or more likely were accurately reporting that Trump was thinking he could, based on Trump's own words in an interview. The fact that Trump is going to fail at something yet again is no reason not to report him trying. That's especially true in this case, where even an unsuccessful attempt might legitimately be a felony.
Nothing new to go on? Did you miss the news in the OP? Come on, admit it - you're pulling our leg.

The media knows that the investigation wouldn't end. But I wonder if Trump knew. I bet, that's what the media was implying .I already acknowledged that. I also mentioned the sentence that they are talking about? We don't know if it is true, or what context it was said in.
Remember it was the media claiming he fired him to STOP the 'Russia' investigation last week, and yet they know darn well nothing stops the FBI from doing that. It was almost like they were claiming ignorance over how the FBI investigates until the current head told them what they should have known...nothing stops investigations.
My original point stands then. I am concerned about the allegations that need to be verified about trump and i am concerned as to why word of this memo has leaked now, after 3 months and comey getting canned. Lots of questions to be investigated.No, of course not. Please don't tell me what I'm saying.
Comey's ruined himself either way. If it is true, and was done in such a way that it was an attempt to obstruct justice, it will result in criminal charges and disbarment for him, due to 18 USC 4 and 28 USC 1361 of the U.S. legal Code. If he instead claims it was just a one-off conversation, then any hope of a case falls apart and he's just seen as a weasel.

From my understanding, it's actually illegal for him to have sat on it.
Lets assume forba moment, that trump did ask comey to back off of the flynn investigation. In your opinion, what would have been the proper response from comey, now having knowledge of this conversation with the president?This isn't correct. The illegality "for him to have sat on it" requires an assumption of an essential fact and that the fact is true, among other things.
