Trump is still fucked. He broke the kaw, he knows it, he knows he's fucked but he's trying everything possible to unfuck himself but he's in political quicksand at this point. All his squirming just makes him sink deeper..
The only pepole who still believe Trump at this point are the nutters like onewebcam, AssPimple and the hate democrats not matter what's like Robbie and Vendillza..
Normal people, the people who actually matter know he's guilty as sin..

I might want to correct your thinking on this.
The key here is to break the chain of evidence and witnesses.
So while Papadopoulos and Manafort are still waiting on proper court, pleading not guilty, on the hopes trump can stop this.
If the Republicans could get the surveillance in question discredited, the evidence against them goes out the window. And perhaps ties to Trump. Even if Trump has no culpability in any of the Russia stuff, it looks as if he is culpable for Obstruction.
But Flynn was under investigation of the NSA and Page and others under investigation with the FBI years before Trump ran for POTUS. The campaign actually tied them up together in a neat little bow. Adding more credence to the investigation.
As long as nobody is only convicted in the court of public opinion, I'm happy to hear those that would want to throw it all out on a few misleading and/or incorrect facts.
It's just not going to change much.
Eventually, the real case will be presented with real evidence and not hearsay.
Wishful thinking... It is more a play to have public support for doing things that they should not be attempting in the near term. The Republicans, lead only by some, want to create enough disbelief to make it through the next election should Mueller investigation run that long. We have been told he is not the kinda guy that would want to end this at election time so it is either in the next 3-6 months or after the mid-term election.
Many republicans are to be dammed either way. If they talk anything against trump, they 'may' face a backlash from voters in their districts. So you can see the most vocal are those that had heavy support for trump last election.
But what worries me is these boneheads are likely to inspire riots soon enough even if that is not their intent.
You know much of this looking very familiar with a era we call McCarthyism.
