"It's a disgrace! It's a witch hunt! No collusion!" This is just 2018's version of Nixon's "I am not a crook!". But I suspect that Trump is much more of a crook than Nixon ever was.
Great American lesson. How about vetting people running for president and commander in chief. Trump bullying his way to the nomination was the beginning of the man we have in the oval office. There were good candidates, he was not one of them. The republican party is to blame for this debacle. JMO
Isn't is crazy how people choose to be misinformed? Either that or they don't like the truth so they parrot the fake news that is spoon fed to them. ...
"It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled."
You Got THAT Right......the most unethical, corrupt, TRAITOROUS President in US history is GOING DOWN!
Indeed. It is highly likely that Mueller already knows the answers to all of these questions, he just wants to see it Trump will lie or tell the truth.
Poor Trump. He is 100% ego driven and only wanted to be POTUS because of the title. Trump cares very little about the job, and cares even less about his supporters. But I doubt he had any idea that running for and becoming president would be the biggest mistake of his life.
I imagine Trump would quit before any formal proceedings would take place, and I can see him living out the rest of his days in shame and secrecy, becoming a recluse and angrily tweeting from the penthouse of Trump Tower.
What are you talking about? Clinton didn't chose to answer questions during Jones' sexual harassment lawsuit.
Clinton was compelled to answer questions.
His legal team fought Jones' lawsuit, arguing that it would distract him from the important tasks of the presidency and that the lawsuit be postponed until after he left the WH. However, the Supreme Court ruled against Clinton and he was compelled to testify.
So what are you saying here? You were asking why Trump isn’t forced to answer the way Clinton was. This is an investigation, not a civil suit. Can Trump be compelled to answer questions under these, very different circumstances? Can he refuse to answer? Does the 5th amendment apply here, where it didn’t during the law suit?
Clinton was required to answer questions about it because he chose to answer questions during a sexual harassment law suit. I’m no lawyer, but I’m pretty sure he could have chosen not to take the stand. As far as I know, you cant be forced to incriminate yourself.
As I pointed out, this inaccurate information.
Clinton tried not taking the stand but was compelled to do so by the Supreme Court.

Clinton could have take taken the 5th Amendment, just as Trump can.

There were not good candidates. Rand Paul and maybe Ben Carson but the rest were pretty much garbage. Were you hoping for another Bush/Clinton showdown perhaps? The GOP needed this shakeup. For the most part they were turning in to democrat lite on all the issues that were doing the most destruction to the backbone of our country.
