If the memos can be dismissed, then he helped expose it. If they are damning, then in the "Trump hoodwinked America" storyline (or in the "Trump was a great visionary who succumbed to illness and we subsequently saved everyone" version), he is a Republucan hero. Great starting place for a right wing tv program.
I suspect they will be, even though they are likely true, and most moderate republicans dislike him to the point where he won't be propped up as their piggy-faced savior. The red team is gonna have to own this one and they will rightfully pay in the mid-terms.

NYT's "The Daily" podcast has done an incredible job covering the Trump/Comey saga this week. Some really insightful reporting by Michael Barbaro and Co.

Well I didn't think he would get impeached anytime soon. That line of thinking is changing now.
