I suspect not because he is on "their team", and if it causes more people to become anti-Trump, that is what this is all about.
Lets face it folks, with all the leakers like Comey, if there was any real dirt on Trump related to Russia, it would have been known by now.
The real question is, how are all those suffering from TDS going to be able to justify wasting all this money and time over a false narrative created by their own party?

..are you as outraged about trump leaking things,you do know it has been proven he will tweet as some of his staffers.

They won't be able to. They are heavily invested in the narrative. Going to be one heck of a hangover when they realize the party's over.

Nunes is on his knees for Trump and that is hardly a patriotic position.
"This is the second time his hometown newspaper has called him out. "

Is this SUPPOSED to be important and news worthy?

It IS a LIBERAL paper that endorses DEMOCRATS including hillary.

So does it really surprise you that they call him out?

I swear you libs will grab at ANYTHING.

How does that crow taste?

Thread FAIL!

That might make some remote sense but how do explain the fact that the senate investigation is still in progress, they don't seem to think it is a waste of time. This isn't about people hating Trump its about arriving at the truth.

That is the point trump does not want you or anyone else to know the truth.

I've never heard of challenge coins. Are they a "thing"?

Seems these particular coins parody the Trump-Kim Jong Un summit coins.

Only if local votes count. The votes of those people who elected Nunes, sent him to Washington and then re-elected him previously thinking he was going to work in behalf of them. Now seems they're thinking he's working in behalf of Trump and not in their best interest. (Like a number of constituencies and incumbents in other areas. A Trumpian reversal trend/tide.)

A paper that, in the past, has supported Republicans who actually work in the better interests of their overall constituency and community which Nunes isn't even concerned enough to pretend to do. He's busy serving his Trump master and Russia. Setting his sights there for his next job?

So you don't buy that the hometown paper is of value in providing info about Nunes. How about money/fundraising? Does that matter? Nunes outsider, newcomer opponent, Andrew Janz, has already raised more than four times the amount Nunes has in his own district. Those who used to generously open their pockets for their native son now aren't. Gee, could it be the Trump thing like so many other places?

What a predictably Trumpian attitude and thing to say. Like Trump, his sycophants are always wanting to inflict damage and vengeance on non-believers. No matter how dunderheaded/wrong-headed the Trumpers are.

Non-Trumpers, of all political stripes, just want to be rid of the pathologically lying, sociopathic, black-hole-where-a-conscience-should-be, old buzzard and the carrion he surrounds himself with. We want a decent president that inspires pride and confidence in our country instead of the mortification, depredation and erosion inflicted upon most of us by the malefactor Trump and his mob.

Trump supporters on this forum are forever trying to shut down threads, get people to quit posting.

I don't know why they don't just go to the threads they like, or put those folks they don't want to read on ignore.

That's what I do.

This is like a party. You don't have to join in every conversation or listen to every person.

But to wander around telling people to shut up or to quit talking about a topic that is headed in a direction you don't care for seems silly at best.

In real life, I occasionally like to discuss issues with those of differing opinions who discuss things openly and will hear, if not agree with, me. I know a few local people who think Nunes has just temporarily lost his mind and his way and hope he might regain it at some point.

I confess though, so many of the Trumper posts here on the forum are so banal, intentionally obtuse or trenchantly absent good sense/intellectual curiosity, that you can't engage in a real conversation. I take mini-C-D vacations or reductions just because it becomes no real challenge or there is minimal positive gain. You have to wade through so much drivel to get to the interesting posts. And, at times, it's just flat out draining, negative and disgustingly depressing as is Trump. When you work to write a sourced post which takes time, only to see a really good, interesting thread just up and disappear (often WHILE you're writing the post). A waste of time and energy. Disheartening.

I've often thought it would be great to have a non-Trump only and a Trump only board here. So they can blather each other to death and we can have a real exchange of ideas without those who just want to get the goat of non-Trumpers who want a real discussion. I wonder, would they attempt to sabotage and shut down so many threads by those of their own bent?

Unfortunately, there is a strong indication from a majority of Trumpers that, the more they can repeatedly give non-Trumpers a "poke in the eye" or shut them down when they don't want to hear it, the happier they are.

So, I guess I'll have to chat more with the locals including the few who think Nunes hasn't REALLY sold his soul to the devil.
