Donald Trump will trigger constitutional crisis if he uses declassified memo to end Russia probe, Democrats warn

Donald Trump will trigger a “constitutional crisis” if he and Republicans seek to use a declassified intelligence memo to try to stop Robert Mueller’s Russia’s probe or fire a senior justice department official, senior Democrats have warned. As Washington responded to the making public of the so-called Nunes memo, Mr Trump claimed its publication “totally” vindicated him before tweeting that the “Russian Witch Hunt” goes on. Democrats urged him not to try to use the memo to halt the special prosecutor’s investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia’s alleged meddling in the 2016 election.
