Watched Fox for a bit and they are elated (with a tinge of sadness, in my opinion) - They think

Trump now has a good year to push through the GOP's hideous. unkind, Non-Christian agenda. And. what they are really happy about is that they think the Comey letters will be sealed. (duh - obviously admitting they fear they will go against Trump)

Mueller can subpoena them. Sealing them from the public, maybe. I doubt that though. The outcry would be too great.

They want this time for their agenda, and they'll get it.

Which, if Trump were reasonable might actually be true. But he's not. He'll bring it up every chance he gets, how he's being wronged, how unfair it is. He'll attack the Special Prosecutor and that'll be a story. If Trump could let this go and focus on other things that might work. Don't respond, etc etc... ongoing investigation. But he is completely incapable of doing so. This is the man who spent decades sending letters and photos of his hands to the man who coined the phrase "short fingered Vulgarian" to refer to Trump. He's not gonna set this aside and move on.

Just depends which parts of the book you choose to follow and which to ignore.

Just as an example, there's is a long history of Christian doctrine that the wealthy are blessed by God and the poor are not thus everyone deserves their fate.
