The Memo: GOP pushes Trump to curb Mueller attacks

President Trump risks squandering the momentum he has gained from some good news in the last week, according to both Republican strategists and independent observers.
 
In a Friday interview on Fox News Channel, Trump renewed his assault on the Justice Department's special counsel Robert Mueller, who is investigating allegations of cooperation between Trump’s presidential campaign and Russia.
 
The day before, Trump made an embarrassing climbdown, admitting that his earlier suggestion that he had taped conversations with fired FBI Director James Comey was untrue.
 
Those moves fit into a pattern of behavior that reportedly caused Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, a former GOP senator, to tell House investigators on Thursday that Trump seemed "obsessed" with the Russia probe.
