JUSTICE DEPARTMENT/MEDIA/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/TRUMP PEOPLE: “President Donald Trump sought to heighten the sense of urgency for his base Thursday [9-6-18] when he told supporters that if he is impeached, ‘it’s your fault, ’cause you didn’t go out to vote.’ Trump has discussed the prospect of being impeached before, but his comments come after a whirlwind week raised fresh questions about his fitness for office and control over his administration…A new book by Bob Woodward and an anonymous op-ed by a senior Trump administration official in The New York Times paint a picture of an administration that distrusts its own boss and goes out of its way at times to thwart his agenda. Asked by conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt about whether Trump can be indicted, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Friday [9-7-18] that the Justice Department ‘has taken the position … that the appropriate remedy for presidential misbehavior is impeachment,’ though he added that he is ‘not an expert on this.'”
