The left will say the DOJ is simply following the evidence, and that Trump has only himself to blame for this mess. The right (Sean Hannity at least will say that Trump is an innocent victim who is being railroaded by a DOJ that has a politically motivated agenda. Both sides have plenty of evidence they can point to, to support their claims. But if Trump could just grow up a bit and govern, we'd all be better off. I don't think he can.
Trump complains about a "witch hunt" following the raid on his lawyer's office, the US attorney in New York who is heading the investigation is a Trump appointee as is the FBI director whose agents conducted the raid.
I guess he just appointed the wrong best people.
Meanwhile there is a breaking story of the Trump org's lawyer threatening Panama's president with "repercussions" if he didn't help them with issues with their hotel.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
