Jonathan Turley: This Comey memo is pretty thin soup for all the impeachment talk

Geez. I can't even go to a Tiger game without the Beltway exploding into another crisis du jour. Matt Boyd is trying to get out of the third inning and a bunch of morons in our sightline don't know enough to sit down. So while I'm trying to find new seats for us, here come the notifications.

Trump in trouble! Trump faces impeachment! They've got Trump now! Now pitching for the Tigers, number 64, Chad Bell. Trump going to prison!

Against my better judgment, I read up on the Comey memo between innings. The initial takeaway is this: If the memo is real, and Pence and Sessions corroborate they were asked to leave the room so Trump can speak to Comey privately, it won't matter a whit that Trump will deny (as he already has) the contents of the memo. Why? Because congressional Republicans would love to see Trump gone and they can draw up their own articles of impeachment using whatever standard of proof they want. The memo and Comey's testimony will be good enough for them.
