Before meeting with Trump, Lavrov had mocked reporters when they asked about Comey being canned. But I'm sure he was most sincerely impressed when Trump told him about his big bold move.

Chances Trump seeks asylum during his trip? Maybe sneeking into a Russian embassy?

This is the cover story on Fox News right now. I'd say Trump is ****ed when Fox News is throwing him under the bus:

The best part of that story is Trump confidently telling the Russians that firing Comey has relieved the pressure on him.

It'll start out just as an extended visit. Putin has a bunch of extra palaces and one will be called the Eastern White House.

That is one embarrassingly worded headline.

OMG this Daily Beast article has the greatest anonymous quotes evar:

Quote:

“Trump himself hasn’t been implicated in any of these leaks except where he’s implicated himself, where he says something that makes his perhaps less-than-sterling intentions clear,” said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity in order to discuss the controversy candidly. “He keeps saying there’s no collusion, and I think he’s right. So if he would just shut his trap, what would Dems have?”
“Okay, he fired Comey,” the official conceded. “With a semi-competent comms operation, that would blow over in 24 hours. And that’s the worst part: he has a competent comms staff. But they can’t do their jobs because he keeps running his mouth.”

Quote:

Trump’s repeated media missteps have frustrated even longtime supporters. “Every day he looks more and more like a complete moron,” said one senior administration official who also worked on Trump’s campaign. “I can’t see Trump resigning or even being impeached, but at this point I wish he’d grow a brain and be the man that he sold himself as on the campaign.”

Quote:

Asked whether those comments could be construed as intent to interfere in the FBI’s investigation, a Justice Department official told The Daily Beast, “absolutely.”
“Individual acts/comments may not constitute obstruction [of justice], but the whole pattern—starting with the requested loyalty oath, ending with the firing—does look like obstruction,” the official said in an email. “And then the question is, is he obstructing because he knows he is guilty himself, or is he obstructing because he doesn’t know the full extent of [former Trump campaign chief Paul] Manafort, Flynn, and others’ shenanigans, and is terrified of finding out. Both are plausible; we know where I would place my bet.”

The main reason I have a hard time accepting these anonymous leaks as fact is that these are all things which someone of even below-average intelligence would not do/say in that position. I have the same thought when I see really awful fake quotes on Reddit attributed to otherwise intelligent people, and it always turns out that my bull**** meter is spot-on.

I just cannot believe you can make (and lose, and make again) billions of dollars in the private sector as a complete idiot.

For this reason, until I hear audio, I have to assume that this is just like one of the fake Reddit quotes, and the MSM can't help but publish it just for the lulz. If people want to believe it, they will, so what's the harm?

You're on a poker forum. Happens all the time. (well not the billions part but you get hte point)

Also it's obvious, he makes $ by getting away with screwing people over, then loses it b/c he's a complete idiot. Rinse repeat.
