Well this is shocking...
Pressure to Release Comey Memos May Have Backfired on G.O.P.
WASHINGTON — For days, top Republicans in Congress demanded the release of
James B. Comey’s memos about President Trump, threatening Rod J.
Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general, with a subpoena if he failed to
share the highly-anticipated documents written by the former F.B.I.
director.
But if Mr. Trump and his allies believed that Mr. Rosenstein’s refusal
would deliver a pretext to call for his firing, as Democrats asserted, his
decision to quickly release all the memos late Thursday night foiled that
plan. The memos leaked to reporters hours after being delivered to
lawmakers in both parties.
And the seven memos, in which Mr. Comey methodically documented his
interactions with the president in real time, did little to help
Republicans undermine Mr. Comey’s credibility or expose contradictions
with his best-selling, tell-all book. Taken together, the 15 pages of
detailed notes largely back up the stories that Mr. Comey told in
congressional testimony, in the pages of his memoir, “A Higher Loyalty,”
and during numerous television and radio interviews.
“I’m not quite sure how this improved the strategic posture of those who
want to dismantle the special counsel investigation,” said Representative
Jamie Raskin, Democrat of Maryland. “This is a tactic that has backfired.
From what I’ve seen of the Comey memos, they bear out completely the
authenticity of his reports and his own credibility.”

In your simple minded life.
The investigation is more than about Comey.
Here's his involvement that is questioned. From the NYT.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-investigation-of-james-comey-is-exactly-what-the-country-needs/2017/01/14/83a558b0-da97-11e6-b8b2-cb5164beba6b_story.html?utm_term=.d17445f9177f
"The investigation will address allegations that Comey violated
established Justice Department and FBI policies and procedures in his
July 5, 2016, public announcement concerning the Hillary Clinton email
investigation. And it will explore allegations that Comey’s Oct. 28
and Nov. 6 letters to Congress, which jolted the presidential election
— and may have changed its outcome — were improper".
Neither is a criminal offense but policy questions. Nothing is hidden
because Comey has addressed both."
The dossier wasn't mentioned.
True that Bush has been told that he isn't a criminal target in the
Russian probe....yet. Mueller isn't through.
He is being investigated with Cohen and that may be more detrimental
for him.

prosecute the president. That will happen after Mueller presents the
results of his investigation.
To further state the obvious, Trump is screwed even if he tries to fire
Mueller, Rosenstein, et al. Mueller and team knew more obstruction was
likely, which is why they referred the Cohen evidence to the Southern
District of New York. Trump is not going to be able to pardon all the
state charges that are going to land on Cohen, meaning that Cohen will
inevitably flip on Trump in exchange for lesser charges.
There is no way for Trump to escape the inevitable reckoning.

If you'd like to explain how being the subject of an investigation is
"not"...
...and Trump is the subject of many investigations... and when he is
out of office he'll be the subject of many, many more.

Sure... you're the one with all the brains around here... and everyone
thinks your full of brains... and you live in a brainhole...
