GOP lawmakers fear Trump becoming too consumed by impeachment fight
By Alexander Bolton - 11/04/19 06:00 AM EST

Senate Republicans want President Trump to focus more on his agenda and not let himself become personally consumed by the House impeachment inquiry, which is likely to hit a dead end in the Senate.

Senate Republicans have urged the president on multiple occasions to key his eye on top policy priorities and let his allies on Capitol Hill handle more of the day-to-day skirmishing over impeachment, according to GOP sources familiar with communications with the president.

One instance came late last month during a meeting between Trump and Republican senators at the White House, when Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) urged the president to follow the model of how President Bill Clinton handled impeachment in 1998 and 1999.

If true then these people are morons and their advice is BS.   Trump needs to fight this 24/7.

This was the predictable Plan Z of the media - can't find anything to hang on Trump in their endless string of fake investigations? Suggest he can't lead effectively because he's too preoccupied by their endless string of investigations.

How's he going to do that with a Dem House? The GOP had two years to make something happen and they let the opportunity slip thru their fingers.

Give me a break.
The Republic is lost.

Maybe if Senate Republicans would get off their asses and defend him, then yeah good advice. And where is all talk no
action, "I am going to get to the bottom of this" Lindsey Graham? He promised he would hold hearing and investigate
thus far not one hearing, not one wittiness called.
