that seemed to reach a point of hysteria and blaming the president, saying the president brought this on himself, that "the washington post" was revealing last night that the president is actually now subject of an obstruction of justice investigation. >> yeah. this is a continuation of a trend that has been going on for a couple of months now. and really the obstruction investigation in large measure from what's been publicly reported stems from the president sort of shoot from the hip style in public statements and on twitter and so on. you know, he for all intents and purposes came out and said yes, i fired james comey because i was sick of the direction this russia investigation was going. in no attorney if they had been investigate those statements ever would have allowed him to say that for good reason. and there were a lot of people in the white house, the communications shop and elsewhere who were very upset he was undercutting the administration's message on that. so once again last night they felt that the president was being -- his public statements were coming back to bite him.
