It is completely odd. We should either be seeing tons of tweets about how it is vindication and how it was a witch hunt like he said, or tons of tweets about how the report is obviously full of lies and fake news produced by the angry democrats using the fake dossier. To have neither one of those makes no sense right now. Maybe he is holding off until he figures out how to get Barr to hide anything bad.

this is really unusual.
If only they knew that we have the TwoPlusTwo TrumpBot with all the archives... In before the TwoPlusTwo Poker Forums' Politics Subforum saves the country and Mason becomes a liberal hero, which leads to all of the attention for poker triggering another poker boom... at which point the Trump presidency will finally have been good for poker.
During the inevitable Congressional hearings, we'll all be subpoenaed, and AOC will dunk on awval for five minutes, while Mark Meadows will grill jman and Wookie for being biased socialist mods paid by Soros to further a conspiracy against El Lobo Gordo and all those who seek to convince us to watch 45 minute YouTube conspiracy videos.
At which point our esteemed mods will simply reply, "Cite or ban," thus changing the course of American political discourse.
Re: The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: State of Emergency
Lol are those tweets because everyone is freaking out that he isn't tweeting?
USA citizens should just really start mass tweeting what you want Trump to do, he'll probably actually do 50% of what is proposed.
I'm not familiar with USA judicial system etc, does Trump/the white house have official access to the Mueller report once it was finalized? If no, is it likely he has received it by now, anyway?

Not ridic at all. Super unusual because he doesn’t spend more than a handful of hours doing anything.
That his first two tweets in over a day were the two this morning pretty much cements it.
Maybe you simply don’t read the thread as often as I do and don’t recognize how highly unusual it is for trump to have done that and he has had significantly more hectic schedules. He tweets from his phone. Being at mar a lago has never stopped him from tweeting for 36 plus hours before. It’s just not true.
That people don’t recognize this was and continues to be highly unusual have a pretty poor lack of perception. Chalking it up to coincidence is pretty fatalist.

Well, to be fair the check/balance on this is the public voting them out.
Which shows you the real problem-- there isn't a check/balance on what happens if the people in charge are openly criminal and the majority of the public doesn't care.
The minority public just has to go down with the ship, I guess.
Re: The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: State of Emergency
Hopefully this is a wake up call for voters. We’re not getting this narcissistic demagogue out of office unless we vote him out. For the love of god do not be apathetic next November.
Re: The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: State of Emergency
There's probably a whole lot of stuff in there that looks terrible, but isn't quite prosecutable. Which is why the report will never see the light of day. And Trump will run around spiking the football on no collusion.
They were smart hammering the collusion or bust line.

I dont think we’ll ever see anything meaningful from this report. DOJ completely compromised.
dozens of times on tv and on twitter trump bemoaned not being "protected" by ag sessions but mueller interviewed all trump's closest friends and advisors and they said he didn't really so there's no way to know
Re: The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: State of Emergency
Isn't this terrible for 2020? Not sure the odds have actually moved that much but I kind of assumed that the chances of a second Trump term would jump up considerably with this outcome.
