House Democrats caution about going too far with Trump
probes as 2020 prospects brightena
June 25 - (CNN)House Democrats are showing little appetite to flex their investigative muscles in the final year of President Donald Trump's first term, with many eager to proceed cautiously and avoid overzealous probes that could backfire politically as their party now leads comfortably in the polls fewer than five months before the election.

After House Democrats launched a series of high-profile probes in 2019, which ultimately led to Trump's impeachment in December, Democrats say they are facing an election-year dilemma: They believe that there are serious abuses of power that must be investigated by their House majority, but many privately concede that doing so could end up benefiting Trump politically by taking the focus away from his handling of the crises facing the country.

June 23 - “Donald Trump’s exhausted trudge from Marine One toward the White House after his botched rally in Tulsa, his red tie undone, a grim look on his face, a crumpled MAGA hat in his hand, is now an iconic image of his presidency. And as always with Trump, he’s already looking for someone to blame. The most obvious candidate, according to sources, is his embattled campaign manager, Brad Parscale,” Gabriel Sherman, of Vanity Fair reported Monday.

Social media users are claiming they're responsible for the smaller than expected turnout at Donald Trump's first campaign rally in months. Groups of Korean pop fans as well as users on the social media platform Tik-Tok say they spread messages online, urging people to pretend to register their interest in attending the event in Tulsa. The US president last week boasted that more than a million people had registered interest in attending the rally but estimates suggest less than half of the 19,000 seats in the arena were filled.  source
