Trump for President. Who's hopping on the bandwagon? Who's digging a bunker?

[badbadboy]

Mind telling me guys whats going to happen if Session and Kushner did not collaborate Comey's version on the private meeting? They may just say, POTUS didn't ask us to leave the room... there is a cover up for in the WH, isn't it?? Just can't seem to understand why there are still people that support him.

No doubt they are all getting their collective stories together. Sessions offered his resignation which was declined. Most likely because he does not do well in Senate hearings and has the worst poker face ever.

Kushner is supposed to be questioned too. I think he will have a story to tell given all of his involvement with the Russians. Rather than lie, he will plead the 5th.

Also POTUS stayed off Twitter for an unheard of 46 hours. His tiny thumbs must have been twitching in anticipation of retaliating with Comey.

McCain's senility is showing though.

Sad, I had hoped he would be the Republican to show not all of them are D Bags. His age did show he is no longer up for long days of concentrating on the details.

I'd agree it's a matter of getting their collective stories together, namely to try to put a reasonable spin on what Comey testified to. Donald Jr. has already come out with a comment to the affect that " when daddy gives an order you know it." Reference to the the "I hope"....quote. Will Kushner plead the 5th....I don't think so. He's all..I have nothing to hide..so why plead the 5th ? Sessions will have problems keeping his story straight especially if Trump writes it for him....more problematic will be when/if Trump testifies and forgets what he wrote.

Trump would be hilarious on the stand.

Yup....looking forward to his rendition of how he parted the Red Sea when he visited the Middle East...

Wouldn't that be "farted the Red Sea"?

If Trump testifies there should be audience participation. How about a button for each person? Green for truthful, Red for lie, Flashing Red for a real whopper. The Green lights won't need bulbs of course.

 

[MissingOne]

... The Green lights won't need bulbs of course.

Yes they will. There will always be some who believe Trump.

 

[se7landrover97]

The Senators are no dummies, they are used to witnesses spouting nonsense.
They will see right through that.
White House staff document everything. There are detailed logs of who is in the Oval Office and for how long.

Kushner is a greasy developer like his father and father in law.
Sessions has already contradicted himself repeatedly over his Russian contacts.



Who has more credibility?

I sure hope you're right. Trump, his people and staff lie and spin just about anything imaginable. So annoying watching them.. and to think there are people who even believe them is the sad thing.

Trump, the "soon come" President

Attorney General's of Maryland and DC have launched suits directly against Trump based upon profiting from his position as POTUS.

Well it has it's benefits...considering his base, two/three weeks down the road they will have forgotten what he said anyway....or be off on a whole other issue. When you got the decision capability of a squirrel crossing the street, what the hell.

Honestly, I think McCain's best days came to a harsh end after he lost the 2000 nomination to Dubya. He was a reformist maverick before, but after that it was like the Establishment broke his spirit. I do not expect much out of him anymore.

Trump Fans:

So on Google News page I read an article about Megyn Kelly interviewing Alex Jones. He is a wacko conspiracy promoter and Trump supporter. His main claim to fame is claiming the Sandy Hook massacre is a fake government con job.
There were a bunch of comments giving her abuse for talking to him. I think it is good that the public at large realise what kind of nut he is. Second, it is important for the public to know Trump admires this goof and has appeared on his show.
Many commenters supported Alex Jones and posted a link to his youtube rebuttal of Kelly's article.
I did not watch the Alex Jones video but read the comments.
Holy Fuck there are a lot of complete idiots supporting Trump. These people are so out of touch with reality you could not make them up.
Suddenly the whole fake news schtick makes sense. These cretins eat it up.
An educated electorate is necessary for a democracy to function. But eliminating that, the American ruling class has eliminated democracy and installed a plutocracy.
Good luck America.

My favorite Trump quote (short version: always hire yes-men and failures)

“And you’ll find that when you become very successful, the people that you will like best are the people that are less successful than you, because when you go to a table you can tell them all of these wonderful stories, and they’ll sit back and listen,” he said. “Does that make sense to you? OK? Always be around unsuccessful people because everybody will respect you. Do you understand that?”

[westwoody]

So many of Trump's quotes and tweets are coming back to haunt him.

Well, not really.

His tweets show him to be a total hypocrite, in clear and precise detail. But he simply disregards any reference to that.
Best example is his harsh criticism of Obama for going golfing. Trump has already played more golf than Obama, but never replies when called out on it.

 

[uncleg]

Now Pence has lawyered up....this shit is bordering on the absurd....maybe time to build a wall so it doesn't get totally absurd. Punt....you getting the feeling this thread might be around longer then the Donald.:behindsofa:

 

[badbadboy]

Long time ago but the alleged corruption and obstruction of justice runs on a similar parallel as Watergate. One key difference is it took Nixon > 4 years to be accused of any crime. This 45th took under 6 months.

http://www.history.com/topics/watergate

From History Channel:


It later came to light that Nixon was not being truthful. A few days after the break-in, for instance, he arranged to provide hundreds of thousands of dollars in “hush money” to the burglars.

Then, Nixon and his aides hatched a plan to instruct the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to impede the FBI’s investigation of the crime. This was a more serious crime than the break-in: It was an abuse of presidential power and a deliberate obstruction of justice.

 

[westwoody]

Nixon was a very shrewd politician who knew Washington inside out.
Many forget he was Eisenhower's vice President.

Donald is a babe in the woods. He thinks he knows everything but really has no clue.
In reality he is that special kind of stupid, so stupid he doesn't realise he is stupid.

He has been insulting and offensive to almost every foreign leader, then whines about them not liking him.
His tweet whining about people being mean to him was hilarious.

A lot of people think W was just a puppet frontman for the Cheney gang.
Trump is looking like a puppet for the Pence-Ryan gang.
They will let Trump make an ass out of himself. Then they will shunt him and his lackeys aside and take over.

 

[BaconNeggs]

Speculation.
Accusations.
Lets see the left prove these allegations in court... anyone can say any thing.
Proving it is a whole different thing.
I see it day after day.
But rumors and gossip are better to some than facts and evidence.
Otherwise shows like The View where a bunch of old women sit around table cackling wouldn't exist.

LMAO, Trump *himself* already said that he fired Comey to take the pressure off an ongoing FBI investigation. How is that NOT obstruction of justice?

Yah! But never underestimate this man. He was able to con his way into winning the Presidency. Besides, majority of republican will still support him coz, if you're right, Pence-Ryan gang got him by the balls and won't just allow him to be impeached.
