Crimes can only be committed by anti-Trump people, didn't you know?

Maybe message-wise. They damn sure are doing their best to keep him around. They treat him with kid gloves. Hannity and even Trump have gone out of their way to be nice to him and not criticize him, publicly. They know having Bernie around will keep Dems divided and keep the Berniebros from voting for the Dem establishment and keep them in power.

Yep, seeing this everywhere too. Maybe he was subpoenaed to testify. Chances he survives the return visit?

BTW, we're almost at the point where the narrative from the right is that anyone who even talks about Russia is promoting war.

I swear we will be seeing heavy evidence of blackmail by Trump &&/|| GOP in the near future. More specifically, against Dems in Congress and various media representatives.

If they throw him out a window that's really going to be a cleanup.

If it turns out that Trump is a serial killer who has raped and murdered dozens over the past decade, the real story will be why didn't Obama stop him.

Trump is putting everything on the line to turn this into a Trump vs Mueller standoff, even if it means adding to the current list of known criminal offenses.

We should worry more about the trickle down Trumpism that would result in supporters also becoming serial killers after that.

Approval rating for serial killers among Republicans would jump 40 points overnight.

Not sure if I'm even joking.

Seem to have skipped the "It was just a joke bro" phase this go-round.

sneaking into someone's house or office and photographing thousands of pieces of private correspondence on microfilm then smuggling the microfilm inside the anuses of russian diplomats to russia, then publishing and distributing select microfilm photographs with the purpose of swaying a foreign political election sure SOUNDS like espionage to me, but i guess because of internet it's legal

it's hilarious and during a debate trump actually blamed hillary clinton for not fixing the system that allowed trump to loophole a $1b tax deduction by having his business fail.

I mean you could argue Putin is a serial killer. What percentage of GOP voters would, when asked about the murder of political opponents, dismiss it as just the nature of realpolitik in Russia? And, if asked if that would ever be necessary in America, agree that it might? It would have to be north of 10%, right? No hyperbole.

Way north of 10%, though less than 40% I'd guess.

Comment was more about the general concept of the left spending a ton of time on things like this, but very little on the economy and jobs. I threw in the transgender bathroom example because it's actually a pretty big talking point for the left, used at their own expense since it completely turns off voters in the middle of the country who don't give a **** and would rather be pandered to about manufacturing jobs.

Just watching Australian morning news show. They had a bit where a reporter was out in suburban Sydney and if people there could make him laugh, they got a free coffee. One person tried just saying "Donald Trump". Nearly worked but the reporter said "that just makes me angry".
