I've sat through many new elected officials. Most all of them eventually come to a staff person and ask for a favor. Generally, then what happens is that it's explained to them staff can't do favors for elected officials and they go away. They have to learn the system. The system always has checks and balances. While a new official is learning what those are, generally, staff has to point it out to them. It's always an ongoing process with newly elected officials and nobody takes it seriously. That can be evidenced in this case as reasonable because Comey didn't claim pressure from Trump and the Acting Director just testified before congress that there was no pressure from anyone to circumvent investigations.

No matter what loonies want to make this, it just isn't.

There is evidence that Trump put pressure on Comey to impede or stop the investigation into Flynn, and through Flynn into the entire 'Russian connection'.

Can this be explained away as an innocent beginner's mistake, as seems to be suggested above? It seems quite a stretch to claim that Trump was not cognisant of the consequences of his request. If there was no Russian connection, as Trump has insisted all along, why was it necessary to ask for the investigation to be stopped? If there was no Russian connection then that is what the investigation would have found. It would have been to Trump's advantage for the investigation to proceed to its conclusion, because if there was no Russian connection, then the only conclusion possible would be a complete exoneration of Trump and his campaign team.

By pressuring Comey to end the FBI investigation, has Trump tacitly conceded that there is fire beneath all the smoke, that there is a Russian connection and that Russia interfered with the US election to Trump's advantage? It certainly looks that way.

Actually there isn't evidence except in your demented mind...well...along with MM and HB. The FBI already testified before congress there was no pressure. So you're, once again, just making shit up.

From all the reports from the various media outlets, no one has provided a copy of the memo. If it exists, then it should be provided along with news report. If it doesn't, then it all falls apart. NBC has reported that neither them nor the NYT has actually seen the memo which in my mind always leave questions. Tme will tell.

McCabe testified that there was no interference, but that was before he knew about the Comey meeting.
Trump also admitted on national television that Comey was fired because of his handling of the Russia/Flynn case.

It seems that Trump tested him to see if he would play ball, then decided to fire him when it became obvious that he wouldn't.

So let's see if we can get the timeline straight here:

1. Trump asks Comey if he has his loyalty, Comey says 'you have my honesty'.
2. Trump is told about Flynn's having received money from the Russians.
3. Trump refuses to take action for 18 days.
4. Comey has dinner with Trump asking if he can stay on, Trump says 'we'll see'.
5. Trump fires Sally Yates (probably because of Flynn), press gets a hold of the Flynn info from Yates
6. Trump is forced to fire Flynn, is angry at the press, not at Flynn
7. Comey has another dinner with Trump, who asks him if he can let Flynn go, Comey refuses
8. Russia investigation intensifies
9. Trump fires Comey, White House claims it's due to the Clinton investigation
10. Trump goes on TV and admits he fired him over the Russia investigation.
11. Trump meets with Russians.
12. Comey memo surfaces.
13. Trump dies of a heart attack and the world is a safer place

Impeachment also floated by Amash today as well as special prosecutor.

If I didnt know better the leve of Scrotus attempted manipulation is like somethin out of the soprano's

But Comey administered an extraordinary tongue-lashing to Clinton and her aides, rebuking them for being "extremely careless" in the handling of classified information and saying the presumptive Democratic nominee should have known an unclassified email system was no place to conduct sensitive government business.

So Flynn isn't under investigation for anything?
Trump didn't admit Comey was fired because of Russia?
Trump didn't meet with the Russians?

Holy fuck your denial is deep.

No, the president did not "admit" any such thing except in your fantasies

Who is saying that Flynn is currently under investigation? No one. That was over before Trump even supposedly asked Comey to drop it

And everybody's met with the Russians, drooler. That's why we have a federal government, to take care of foreign matters

That sort of stupidity on your part isn't worthy of even acknowledging
