Биограф Трампа Тим О'Брайан напоминает о том, что нарушение правил - это для Трампа обычное поведение.

Mнение редакции New York Times:

This self-interested assault is doing incalculable damage to the integrity of American law enforcement. It’s up to those people who have devoted their lives to the nation and to the rule of law, like Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and the F.B.I. director, Christopher Wray - both Republicans and Trump appointees, don’t forget - to stand up to the president and defend these institutions.

Встреча назначена в четверг.

NEWS: White House says meeting between DOJ and lawmakers will be Thursday. Reps. NUNES, GOWDY, FBI Director Wray, DNI Coats and DOJ's Ed O'CALLAHAN. No White House officials.

No Dems, either, apparently.
