At 12:38pm Eastern time, Fox News had a big “Credibility in Question” banner next to a pic of Mueller.
Hey Fox, the indictment is out there. (Two of them now, of course - the Manafort/Gates indictment, and the Papadopolous indictment.) Care to point out which particular items that you regard as being of questionable credibility?
Of course they don’t.
Lyin’ Sarah said the indictments and the lies Papadopoulos told have nothing to do with the Trump campaign and then pivoted to Clinton.
Her confidence level has dropped precipitously over the past few months.
Why do they keep acting like Clinton is still running? It is the easiest to rebut concept. “Why not Clinton?” Because she’s not in office and has no influence. We’re investigating the evil guy in charge, not the Sunday School teacher you didn’t like.
I’ve heard that Manafort was laundering money by borrowing money from one Russian, buying a condo, then selling that condo to another Russian. It is often mentioned that the condos were in Trump properties, but does it matter where the condos were? I can’t see how that implicates Trump in any way. Does the Trump Tower get a cut of all condo sales or something?
First of all, don’t be so sure isn’t still running. Second of all, there is no one else who is going to draw attention to better than Hillary. If she did something illegal (I don’t think she did, but if), she would be vulnerable for prosecution. Third of all, his base supporters hate her more than anyone else. And, no we are not “investigating the evil guy in charge”, although he may be or may come under investigation at some point. The investigation is much broader than Trump, if it even includes him at all. Not sure where you got that from.
Interesting take on the Manafort/Papadopoulos news from Seth Abramson: Thread by @SethAbramson on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App
This.
Trump will stay as long as the political enablers keep him there. And while he’s there, he’ll inflict whatever damage on the country he feels like.
DJ Trump before family
Family before friends
Friends before rich members of the Party
Rich members of the party before any other members
Party before country
ANY party even considering the most remote of possibilities of her running deserves another rout at the hands of the Tangerine Turd. But then, I’m not seeing any real leadership in the Dem Party either. Someone, anyone? Bueller, you wanna run?
I think his pecking order is:
DJT Himself
Money
Family
Other Whites
The Great Unwashed Masses
Goddamn! That’s fascinating and really informative. Thanks for posting that. I wanted to post a few of the most important Tweets, but they’re all just jaw-dropping.
Everyone should read jsgoddess’s link.
Agreed. It’s great stuff.
Right, but that doesn’t really negate Bricker’s point.
He simply noted that the dossier was “prepared by a foreign citizen and used by the Clinton campaign against Trump,” which is true, even if the dossier was not originally prepared for the Clinton campaign.
I haven’t seen the arguments that he’s referring to, where some Dopers allegedly claimed that “any time a foreign citizen contributed valuable information to a campaign, this was illegal.” But if some people did say this, and if they truly believe that foreign citizens contributing information to a campaign is illegal, then that argument should still apply in this case, even if the document wasn’t prepared at the explicit request of the Clinton campaign.
I’d be interested to see the claims that he’s talking about, though.
it’s making me hopeful!
Tru dat. She’s in the Emmanuel Goldstein role in this 1984 parody.
Don’t hold your breath waiting. He’s made a habit lately of making claims like that about stuff I’ve supposedly said in past threads, without providing any substantiation.
From the link:
May it be so. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving group of guys - excluding the President, of course.
Someone cracked recently on Twitter that Jared would surely get into prison - he’s a legacy. 
The Clinton campaign did not use the dossier.
Damn, there’s some *nuggets *in there. Abramson seems to believe today is the beginning of the end for the Trump admin, but that things are going to get uglier from here. “We must cast aside old notions of what sort of behavior is “likely” in a politician and how/whether independent journos can contribute…Things will get worse in America—very ugly—before they get better. We all must prepare ourselves now with knowledge of the facts.”
Everyone stop what you’re doing and read that link.
My favorite from that Tweet series:
From the Seth Abramson thread:
I think those were the most striking ones to me. But, really, the whole thing is amazing.
