Yes, Trump Thinks He Can Defeat The Russia Probe
Hes betting that his foes are too weak to stop him.

WASHINGTON Beltway wise guys the same people who thought Hillary Clinton would waltz into the White House are now assuring themselves that Donald Trump is going down.
They tell each other that he is too stupid, paranoid, amateurish and even insane to survive the many car crashes he has had with himself as he fends off probes into whether his campaign was tied to Russias interference in the 2016 election.
Once again they dont understand Trump. They are still underestimating him. And this time nothing less than the fate of the American system of government once the envy of the world is at stake.
Trump thinks he can power through this and shut down the series of investigations that are driving him into a state of fury. Despite the durability of the institutions opposing him, it is not completely clear that he is wrong. American democracy is not in good health, and it was that very rot that got Trump elected.
