Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 11, 2017 Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 I'm glad to post. I agree more people need to speak up and more people need to hear this. Trump is trying very hard to obstruct and subvert but the narrative needs to be very clear and somethings (like life and death) are as clear as day. Bumping this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted May 11, 2017 Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 see...Trump has opened the entire warehouse of whoopass from the FBI by what he did. what a moron. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted May 11, 2017 Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) Meanwhile, Trump just panicked (again) - told Lester Holt Comey told him he wasn't under investigation, and that he was going to fire Comey anyway regardless. This destroys his fake pretext, in addition to being another batch of lies. Also during this interview - I can't believe I am saying this - Trump took credit for inventing the expression "prime the pump". Irate, Joe Scarborough called into MSNBC to again call Trump a liar and a fool, which to be fair is all true. This is happening very fast, y'all. From Time, this ugly expose: Donald Trump After Hours Charles Pierce has a go. An absolutely deranged interview with DT from The Economist. And Matthew Yglesias' dissection of it.

Members dragonflies Posted May 11, 2017 Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 I know y'all don't want to believe it, but I really believe Trump's world is caving in on him and impeachement is happening, even if it's not soon, it's going to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted May 11, 2017 Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 I believe he will leave office early I'm just not sure if it's going to be impeachment, arrest, resignation and fleeing the country, or a body bag. My personal preference would be arrest on RICO charges. That would mean asset forfeiture which oddly enough the FBI tweeted about right around the time the raid started. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 11, 2017 Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 Of course, I want to believe it, LOL. It's just that the people who believe that Pence will be worse-- all I can say is, that's why it's especially important that as many of these recalcitrant GOPers in Congress be voted out. That's regardless of whether Trump can survive the term or not. Update: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted May 11, 2017 Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 Just a note Schneiderman the AG in NY also hired Preet Bharara and they are allegedly going after Trump's various financial interests in New York 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted May 11, 2017 Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) Uh, I completely believe it and have said it all along. It's claiming Pence is the same or worse that gets me. Trump is a noxious blowhard but has coasted by on the illusion of charisma and bluster for decades. Pence has the charisma of a wood tick, has zero bluster and cannot get himself elected to national office - all things that are anathema to long-term survival in Washington. The media may prop him up a bit if it comes to that to keep the country afloat in the immediate wake of this disaster with Trump, but as a standing president? He doesn't have a prayer on his own and when election time comes around they won't be trying to help him. Because Pence is neither charismatic nor exciting nor capable. They've never had the love affair with Pence they've had with others; the only attempt to burnish his credentials was last year, when it seemed like he might moderate Trump or help him pivot to becoming human and respectable. He was a talisman for Trump, a symbol, an accessory, but he didn't do it. He was never anything on his own. Bottom line: We can handle Pence.

Members marceline Posted May 11, 2017 Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 Also the narrative of Pence as innocent in all this has been destroyed. He's as complicit and compromised as everyone else. Even if he survives this - which is becoming a bigger "if" by the day - he's going to be kneecapped. If the IC and FBI are as hungry for blood as they seem to be, we might very well end up with President Hatch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Roman Posted May 11, 2017 Members Share Posted May 11, 2017 exactly...that's why I agree with others who say Pence is just as bad as Trump...and worse than Trump in some ways because even though Trump is a fool, Pence is jst outright dangerous with his neo-christian beliefs....which I feel he will try to wrap legislation around them if/when he becomes POTUS The best way? kneecap them both. Ryan is gutless and can be handled with ease. well, easier than the two fools in charge now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
