Just asking.

Didn't think so.......

Let's have a look at one of the left's "finest", Chelsea Manning, if we want to speak of something "fitting a party well".

CN
One of many treasonous Democrats.

No proof? What did he do? Oh, that’s treasonous, and Canada denied him entry because his conviction is based on, you guessed it, treason.

That little s**t should have faced a firing squad.

Everyone in the real world knows which party is the party of felons.

If those actions don't define what a traitor is, I'd like to know what does. Manning does not even belong in the United States, much less Congress.
Its not exactly patriotic to obey or be subservient to a tyrannical govt either.

Keep in mind, in the eyes of a tyrannical govt, a patriot WOULD BE THE SAME THING AS A TERRORIST.

How about openly passing classified intel to Russian spies. Intel that Israel shared with our IC, no less.

Republicans insist that it's fine because Trump's president and he can do that.

Really.

In comparing criminal corruption, the data shows that Republican administrations win this contest hands down.

Over the past five decades:

Democrats - 3 executive branch officials indicted with 1 conviction and 1 prison sentence.

Republicans - 120 executive branch officials indicted with 89 criminal convictions. 34 prison sentences.


Just to be sure we are all clear,

Democratic administration convictions - 1

Republican administration convictions - 89


To be fair, Republicans were in office 8 more years, which of course, gave them more time for crime.

On the other hand, they had to pardon one of their own presidents and the Iran/Contra conspirators. So it all comes out in the wash.

Republicans have been by far the most criminally corrupt party to hold the office of the presidency in decades.

Dems love felons!


"US to release 6,000 inmates from prison - The New York Times" read that Obama releases 6k inmates


"Flint voters elect two convicted felons, two others with bankruptcies to city council"


"Former Waterbury mayor convicted of crimes nominated to run for alderman"


"Former Bridgeport mayor and convicted felon Joe Ganim announces reelection campaign"


"Marion Barry, re-elected Washington mayor after drug term"


"2 in Houston City Council race have criminal records
They completed probation, so state laws allow them to seek office"


Markham Ill -"City elects convicted felon as mayor",


for an eye opener read wiki's list of US local officials and federal officials, convicted of federal corruption. the list of judges goes on forever!!!!!


Varies from state to state whether a convicted felon can run.


Suddenly convicted felons are evil to the democrat party.


Enough Ds and Rs convicted and in office.

Scott claimed to be ignorant of these criminal activities, despite running the company for 10 years, which begs the question--is he just stupid, so removed from the entity he's governing that he is oblivious, or is he flat-out lying? Many felt he is a criminal who should have gone to prison.

Well yeah but you could have easily charged Trump with that one comment. How Republicans can find a way to condone that is completely disgusting. Trump is un-American and i fear will divide us the way slavery did 150/60 years ago
