But it was investigated under Obama for what 5-6 months? This whole line of thought seems very flawed. I have no doubt that Trump could possibly influence the direction of the investigation from Jan 21st or whatever to May 10th or whatever. What I am saying is this has been investigated for months and months by an administration with justifiable political motive and they turned up exactly zero that directly links Trump to the Russian interference. At least that we know of. That isn't my opinion that is incontrovertable fact. They did turn up that people like Flynn were possibly compromised and yes that may turn into more but there has been nothing directly linking Trump to it yet and without that nothing will happen.

If Trump operated rationally, yes. But he could be hiding a tiny crime and the rest is just his ego unwilling to admit he had help winning the election.

Fair enough. I just find it hard to believe that a bombshell of that magnitude would be withheld given the stakes and the rampant leaks during this adminisration. Will definitely concede I could be wrong about that I just don't think it is likely.

To clarify what I mean by spending political capital is that if they fail to scalp Trump on this issue it will get progressvely harder each time they miss as the public gets "boy who cried wolf" fatigue. It also would give validity to Trump's whole war cry of FAKE NEWS and LIBERUL MEDIA OUT TO GET ME. If he survives this unscathed in many ways he gets stronger which is terrifying.

if? you mean when. Only a few dems are even calling for it.

Reality is democrats probably don't want trump impeached. Suckers are giving them money in droves which is what the corrupt ones want, and that's still the majority of dems.

At least the official reports regarding fundraising for April the Dems aren't doing as well as you would think.

please stop quoting wichita

Senate intel chair Burr has already came out and said Trump did no wrongdoing (about all comey stuff).

WAAF.

In theory, yes. In practice, I don't know if Trump can overcome the perception, even if he's completely innocent, of being a bumbling lying baffoon who knows nothing of how the government works. He hasn't exactly handled himself adroitly and I don't think there is going to be a decisive moment that's going to wipe away everything. More than likely, even if Trump is ultimately innocent, it's just going to continously drag on eventually fading away with Trump continously acting stupid all along the way and people remembering that more than anything.

Vicente Fox video delivers. Amazing.

Reality is cold and hard, I'll leave you in peace to post all the fake news about 50k mental health professionals and the like. Wouldn't want to disturb that level of discourse and rational discussion.

I think it's because people suspect he didn't mean to say it like that, he's just too dumb to phrase properly what he was trying to say.

Just because you went a whole day without mentioning H-Dog and her terrible, terrible no good very bad vagina (wtg!) doesn't mean you get to talk down to people.

You're making two assumptions that the rest of us don't make.

1) Collusion with Russia is the be all end all of "crimes" that Trump has committed or will commit.

2) GOP will find collusion with Russia sufficient to begin impeachment, and not other practices or crimes with a lot more concrete evidence.

This that dude polishes the tip.

He's that dumb but that's really what he meant. He's a chip off the old block.

When people named trump say terrible things--they mean every word.

p.s.

I gather he was trying to say the people who are stridently opposing his daddy are so full of hate they've forgotten their humanity, as in, their kindness and decency, and are blinded by rage.

But, like, he's a dumbass f**kface, like his daddy, so it came out as it did.

There's a lot of talk on the shows about the nonanswers given by the intelligence people this morning, mostly about how it's not justified and so on. Not much speculation on why they would resort to mealy mouthed bs about their feelings and vague crap about it being inappropriate, though. The uniformity of the answers suggests the possibility they were coached or discussed their answers amoung themselves prior to the hearing. I didn't watch the whole thing, but did anyone ask them "Are you refusing to answer out of a sense of personal loyalty to Donald Trump? Were you asked to pledge loyalty?"

Got to love it when people full of hate and love obstruction are mad about other people having hate and obstruct. Even tho dems aren't really obstructing because they control nothing.

Just in case no one bothered pointing out how dumb this is, this is really dumb. The only group trump is still fleecing is white men, and he's even losing them in polls. His corruption and incompetence are on full display (if you don't mainline Faux News 24/7) and people are reacting.

Heh, I posted a postscript right below you.

I think he obviously doesn't view most other people as people so the one interpretation is correct, and dismissing people hating his daddy as simply haters also isn't viewing them as people, I just found it weird and interesting that he seemed like he was really trying to say something else but just didn't have the eloquence.

That's if we grant him that level of awareness. The whole thing reads like 'stop being mean to my daddy!' And the daddy haters aren't subhuman, they're boogey-monsters.

I really want the Muslim Ban case to go to scotus and Gorsuch to vote against. That would tilt the **** out of loyalty loving Trump. Will also be fun to see the contortions Fox News, et al, will go to bashing the decision of a dude they were slurping for months.

Just in case no one points out how much dumber this is than what it was responding to, this is really really dumb! It doesn't matter who Trump is fleecing. Most people aren't political news junkies like you are. They have lives to live and aren't watching ANY news 24/7 like you do. So most of it is NOT on full display and that, my completely out of touch typical libtard 2p2er, is why you are very very wrong.

I love me some Dershowitz troll. I think he has a mar a lago membership. He just will not stay off TRUMPs ween.
