Here’s House Republicans’ list of all the Trump scandals they’re covering up.

It has churned Republican stomachs. Here are some of the probes it predicts:

James Comey's firing
Trump's firing of U.S. attorneys
Trump's proposed transgender ban for the military
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin's business dealings
White House staff's personal email use
Cabinet secretary travel, office expenses, and other misused perks
Discussion of classified information at Mar-a-Lago
Jared Kushner's ethics law compliance

    Well, well, well.  Just the list of potential investigations is enough to keep Congress busy for the rest of Trump's first term and, hopefully, prevent a second one.

    I'm reminded of some song lyrics by The Carpenters - We've Only Just Begun, that's if the Democrats flip the House.

    I think even the Republicans in the Whitehouse are repenting of Trump.
    Those still supporting him do so because he is actually fulfilling some of their policy goals.
    But it seems to me that though his voter heartland remains loyal,
    he is losing his in-party supporters by gradual attrition.
