50% : " Read the full story. Former FBI Director James Comey will appear in federal court for his arraignment on charges brought after a public campaign by Trump to prosecute him.
50% : The three former governors, who have long histories of criticizing Trump, also expressed a sense of resignation, saying they believe he will charge ahead unless the courts rein him in.
