The fact that Comey was even talking to Congress last week was the direct result of a Trump unforced error. This insistence at holding a vote on Friday to "to see who's on our side" was idiotic. Obama spent weeks and months talking to congressional republicans, attempting to get them on board. Trump made a few phone calls and stayed up to 11 pm a few nights during a two week period and he acts like it was some huge sacrifice. And he said Hillary didn't have the stamina. But like his supporters say, he's not going off message, he's playing 4D Space Chess. He's got the FBI, the Freedom Caucus, Chuck Schumer, Rachel Maddow, and the Russians just where he wants them...
