    Ummmm......it's a Trump witch hunt if they find nothing. If they find something the witch hunt was a real hunt....

    :crackup: Seriously?

    What's the anti Trump delusion stuff called again because this is a perfect example of it :D

    He has been a republican, a democrat, a no party, and even part of some other oddball Independence Party.

    Doesn't make any difference why. It was of course to save face and not be outed when running for president. So what? The only issue is if the money came from campaign funds donated by others. Trumps own money can be used to pay off porn stars all day long legally.

    Has Hillary served time or something I missed?

    Because everything he said happened actually did, and the FBI or whoever said eh, it's okay, it was an honest mistake.

    Have you ever seen an "investigation" like this not have leaks if there is fire behind all the smoke? This whole shit show is just like going after Clinton for blow jobs in the oval office. Waste of time and money.

    I do love this kind of thinking. How is he embarrassing? Because he's too blunt? Because he banged models before he was president?

    I find nothing about Trump embarrassing any more than any other president throughout history and there have been a bunch who were way the hell out there. Hell at this point he's fun to watch. The rabid freakouts by his haters have gotten old but that's about it. He's even better than G Dub was for pure straight from the horses mouth comedy :D

    Yeah, I have just as much Info as you do, only issue there is I'm not the special counsel and I'm pretty sure he has more. That sopeona that got dropped On Cohen today kinda points to that too. NYC State charges, no Pardon powers for folks there. I'm sure the state and feds don't talk though. One note though, not a good idea to pay court settlements "that you claim you never ever settle" with funds from your Charity.

    Man those flag poles keep getting in the way.
    I'm sorry did I say I agreed with that? I think not, and not sure how the FBI or DOJ let that bullshit slide.

    Recent readings have all but destroyed my naive belief that anything in DC is not politically tainted, the DOJ and their prosecutors in particular. It isn't about justice, it is about career advancement and win at any cost.

    Not talking about agreement, your comment made it seem as if you didn't think it happened at all.

    Gubmint work 101 sadly :(

    As always, I'm sure there are a LOT of great people in there doing the job because it's an important one that needs to be done. However those people aren't usually going to advance through the ranks to be in charge or the ones getting appointed to shit like this by the movers and shakers.

    Started reading "License to Lie" about the Enron/Anderson/Merrill fiasco. Realized I used to go to HS with the author. That book has reinforced my belief that the swamp needs to be drained and that the opposition is establishment bipartisan. Follow the power, and the money, they are not mutually exclusive.

    Simple in two years he has spent a crap ton of money, hired his pals, and made a ton of rumors. Yet to show for it he has charged people and companies not in the country and the only one that said fine I will go to court he immediately filed to block sharing evidence as required by law. The he has plea deals that have zero to do with the original case or even Trump. Including the lied to the investigators one that is why I would NEVER talk to the FBI as it is I cannot catch you at anything so I will charge you lying. Then you have Manifort which is an old case that was originally determined not worth charging and unrelated to the campaign. Oh and this all while ignoring anything Democratic with evidence. His biggest hope is to trap Trump in something he can claim is purgery.

    Oh and finally almost all special prosecutors are on a witch hunt. Remember the Valerie Plame fiasco where they new early on who gave the info out and how yet carried on 'looking'. Special persecutors tend to spend a crap ton of money 'catching' people in process crimes. That applies to when either party is being 'investigated'.

    Trump should pardon Manafort, fire Sessions, and end the investigation. Today.
    Fuck what the traitor party thinks.

    No I remember hannity talking about, but wasn't sure who made the request the FBI or Congress,just looked and it was the FBI, not sure how she got out of that. I wonder if she destroyed them before getting the Sopeona, that's the only way I can see a justification for not charging her, out side of that. Lock her up sounds more than appropriate.

    pardon him. Why
    ... why does he get a free pass?

    For no other reason than making Cohen regret his plea and making the traitor party lose its shit. In other words, for the lulz.

    While the lulz may remain, I think any real Democratic strategist (assuming they have any), may be a few chess moves ahead... and really hoping that happens!
