I don’t know that firing Comey alone was enough for Congress to think it’s obstruction since it led to an investigation.

People who fall for the whole Russiagate thing are useful idiots for Putin
He is not an evil genius he is an moron.
He has the biggest country in the world with a smaller economy than the Netherlands...
jesus America get a grip. I know your intimidated by the bigger man, Russias size...but seriously calm down

What does Russia's economy have to do with Putin's intelligence? He doesn't care about anyone but himself and a few friends. Russia's economy doesn't matter to him as long as he's rich and powerful, and he very much fits both of those categories.Originally Posted by Exocet

Yup.
“Russiagate” isn’t about Russia’s economy; it’s about Russia’s attempts to fuck with our election, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY Trump’s possible attempts to obstruct the investigation (and why).
I think because English isn’t his first language, sometimes stuff is lost in translation. Like, C-Span.

Both the Republican and the Democratic establishment know they are losing to people like Bernie Sanders and of course Donald Trump...the Russiagate scandal is a desperate way of ensuring the centrists stay in power.
CNN are acting like state media in repressive authoritarian countries.
Russia DID spend money trying to tilt the election in Trumps favour but not enough to sway 62 Million people, nobody in America watches Russia Today, and i dont think a few posts on newspaper comment sections would have made much of a difference.
Nothing will come out of this Russiagate bullshit and America will come out looking worse, trust will be eroded...CNN and MSNBC are the ones doing Putins work.
Russia did not do much, but they have made America look mental.

Who said Russia swayed 62 million people? Trump "won" the election by a few hundred thousand across the country - meaning a handful here, a handful there - and in "swing states" that were heavily targeted by Russian trolls. They made America look mental because enough of America was fucking stupid enough to let their attack work.
CNN is doing "Putin's work"? Dude, take the tinfoil hat off. I have the feeling that I could point out source after source after source after source after source that says otherwise and that wouldn't change your mind, so I'm not going to waste the effort.

Trump didn't win by 62 million votes, he lost by 3 million. NOBODY is implying that every Trump voter was swayed by Russian propaganda.
not fucking true. I saw a ton of my friends posting RT videos on social media leading up to the election, many of them Sanders supporters. Think what you want, but you are completely fucking wrong here.nobody in America watches Russia Today
We'll never know how effective that was I guess, but it still fucking happened and that matters.and i dont think a few posts on newspaper comment sections would have made much of a difference.

Trump's lawyers don't want him speaking with Mueller.

Liberals are so confident that Mueller will bring down Trump. This worries me, because it has happened before that when Liberals are so confident something is going to happen - like Hillary winning in 2016 - it doesn't.
Bite me
I’m a liberal who is pretty confident that this is just gonna get more fucked up and nothing is going to happen to Trump until after he is no longer President.
All this other crap is wishful thinking that does no good.
People would be better served focusing on the congressional elections.

Same here. Unfortunately, my social media feed is full of the "Occupy Democrats" BS memes and things like that. Basically everyone throwing a pre-emptive farewell party for a departure that isn't going to happen until he's voted out or has reached his term limit. Just like how not all Republican voters are horrible drunk racist redneck Uncle Fathers, not all Democrats are buying party supplies for the Impeachment Hearing Drinking Games. Unfortunately, a LOT of the Dems that I know are like that, and it's exhausting trying to teach them about facts instead of just passing around meme after meme.
However, let's start a new bet: Trump pulls the next Assange / Snowden and skips town for someplace that'll protect Private Citizen Donald from prosecution, should there be anything to charge him with.

ON your last point, yes, I agree where we need to focus our attention right now to put an end to this bullshit.
However, I think if the evidence rolls in conclusively, there's a reason to make an example out of this... to say, NO, never again, FUCK THIS.
It's the same reason we punish criminals... you make an example. You show them that this isn't something you just get away with.
If there's a smoking gun, he will wind up in jail. And there'll be a pragmatic reason to throw him in there.

And Trump has now blamed the immigration status of a drunk driver for the death of an NFL athlete.
You read that right. The DRUNK driver was only a danger because he was in the country illegally. Over 10,000 drunk driving related deaths occur every year in this country. But obviously the ONLY reason that this DRUNK driver killed someone was because his immigration status was't legal.
Fuck you, Donald Trump. You're a moronic, worthless piece of shit. I generally don't think much of/about the afterlife, but you make me hope that hell exists.

he doesn't need to do that.
Bush and Cheney committed war crimes, and Obama was all "you're good, none of you need to worry about a thing."
Whoever comes after Trump in 2020 - assuming of course that Dems don't fuck this up - which they may very well do - will pardon pardon pardon.

OK, well, this is a thing now.

Will someone please email Donald and CC Sarah with a link to a google search for "Memorial Day" and "Veterans Day"?
White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders confirmed the request Tuesday evening. She said Trump wants the Pentagon to "explore a celebration" that will allow Americans to show appreciation for the military.

I know the supposed inspiration mentioned by Trump was France but hey if he wants to go all in he'll be making sure the U.S. has just that much more in common with Russia.
Have you guys seen their Victory Day parades?!

There are a TON of homeless veterans, why doesn't he spend the money on THEM, instead? D.C. streets don't even have the infrastructure for that shit, he's such an idiot.

But during that entire magic trick, he was colluding with Russia, building 6 hotels in Moscow, secretly running his businesses, and screwing a hooker hidden under the basket.

,there's also dealings in Jerusalem, turkey AE, again we have no view into his financials. what we do know. bankruptcies defaults, no one would lend him money. Russia is not the only country he could have colluded with. personally i think mueller is running a tight and discipline investigation. despite what square head sponge pants Hanity says. I think at this point they are playing four counners basketball, with the market two day losses, mid terms looming re pugs are already screaming about russain meddling. he got the tax cuts gutted the EPA. most everything the rich wanted. he will now be hung out like excuse the pun "a carrot on a stick.

"Some" people say, huh? To borrow a tweet I saw downstream there: So there are some veterans who think this will fix their problems? How, exactly?
