The Law Is Coming, Mr. Trump

'Monday’s meeting was ostensibly called to discuss a matter of global significance: a reported chemical weapons attack on Syrian civilians. Mr. Trump instead made it about him, launched unbidden into a tirade against the top American law enforcement officials — officials of his own government — accusing them of “an attack on our country... in a true sense.” No, Mr. Trump, a true attack on America is what happened on, Sept. 11, 2001. when  thousands lost their lives; Trump angrily blamed everyone he could think of for the “unfairness” of an investigation that has already consumed the first year of his presidency,  as a Republican-appointed former F.B.I. director consulted with a Republican-appointed deputy attorney general, who then authorized a referral to an F.B.I. field office n ot known for its anti-Trump bias. ' Trump now has real reason to be afraid.
