That investigation, which ultimately will be carried out by the efforts of the parliament and the US security services, will answer how far these contacts and connections, mediocre or directly, are grounds for impeachment. The fact that such connections were - it is more or less obvious. This follows at least from the statement that James Komi gave before the parliamentary hearings. When he said that Trump had asked to leave Michael Flynn alone and remove the problems hanging over him due to constant accusations of links with the Russians.

I think that the main reason for the dismissal of the Komi, and this is a well-known fact, is that James Komi did not agree to the patronage relations that Trump tried to establish. I think that Komi broadcasts absolutely correctly that Trump expected loyalty from him.

Apparently, Trump poorly studied the biography of Komi, his companion, because such things he would not have told him. Komi, while still deputy US Attorney General, demonstrated that in such a relationship he is not a member of the White House. In 2004, he refused to comply with the demands of the White House Administration and the then president to resume surveillance of telephone conversations and citizens' e-mails. Komi - a professional self-respecting, showed an independent FBI status.

Trump perceives the country as a business empire, whose leader he is. Of course, this is a rather serious problem for the United States. Because the US president is not the head of the enterprise, and the US itself is not a business empire.

As for the possibility of impeachment, then taking into account the balance of power between Republicans and Democrats in today's US parliament, this probability is not large in the near future. Concerning prospects - the probability will increase.

Obviously, Trump had some contacts with the Russians. How criminal they are - the investigation will show. It will be fair. Trump will not be able to replace this garbage under the wardrobe, it will not work for him. There is an institution of reputation. Any official who wants to stay in this place will still have loyalty to the US state, and not to the president.

For Trump is still typical? He has no value disagreements with Putin and in general with Putin's Russia.

Therefore, he is ready to interact. He is like a person who really understands what is happening, of course he will be afraid of contacts with Russia now. How tight and criminal they were in the past - it will become clear already this year from the results of the investigation.
