He was so earnest. I think he actually believed that because he was President he was above the law.

Strangely enough, Nixon's VP resigned amidst charges of bribery, conspiracy, tax fraud, and corruption in general.

Indeed.
While no surprise, it’s an interesting turn of events.
I wonder what got the doctor talking all of a sudden.

I think some folks have forgotten how this administration began. I don't think it's a good idea to underestimate the consequences of sycophants still surrounding him. Speaking of, whatever happened to Mr. Miller?

Far as I know, Miller is still lurking around the WH.

I'll bet the "sleepy eyed" commentary came from Miller.

Your one-stop thread for any and all posts meant to call out the president for any proven/unproven lies he may or may not have told. Also, this thread is not only restricted to posts about President Trump. Feel free to discuss other public figures who you feel have been caught being dishonest or deceitful. On this thread, you will have the freedom to go where your mind takes you without fear of having your thoughts removed because you have gone "off topic". As long as you are "on topic" in the loosest sense of the word, your posts are safe here. Of course spam or posts which have absolutely no business on the thread will be removed.

However, please understand that the off topic rule is the only rule not being enforced as usual on this thread. Trolling, inappropriate language, hate speech, personal attacks, etc. are still prohibited and posts which do not adhere to the rules of the site will be removed. So please, engage in healthy debate, and do not attack other users.

5.............4............3...........2.......... .1..........Begin.

Edit:

This thread exists, as a sticky, because every few days a new thread with the same title, "Potus is lying again" pops up on the forum. Inevitably, the thread goes off topic and then is shut down. So I have created a thread with wider boundaries in order for users to discuss this subject however they wish. So the inevitable off topic posts will not be removed unless it is absolutely necessary, and threads which deal with "lies" the president has told will end up here. I hope this helps people better understand the reason this thread exists, and why it is a sticky.
I'd like to start off by what I say about all of these failed and worthless POTUS is Lying again threads...

Waa! Not My Pwesident! Waa!

That is all. Have a nice morning y'all.

With those details in hand, Trump lawyer Jay Sekulow compiled a list of 49 questions that the team believed the president would be asked, according to three of the four people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk publicly ... After investigators laid out 16 specific subjects they wanted to review with the president and added a few topics within each one, Sekulow broke the queries down into 49 separate questions, according to people familiar with the process"

if these were a list of questions that jay sekulow put together, based on the meeting with mueller, then mueller wouldn't have a copy of that list and couldn't be the source of the leak.

I guess what I'm getting at is, is it any surprise that Mr. Trump is attempting to assert the 'absolute right' to do whatever he wants as POTUS, i.e. an autocratic rule of sorts.

From day 1. He & his sycophants apparently feel justified or entitled to present 'alternative facts'.

Strange times.

Robert Mueller would never give out a list of questions like this. They read like something a first year law student might put together.

Why team Trump tried to pretend this was from team Mueller's is anybody's guess, but it was a fool's gambit that didn't pay off.

In any case, here we are.

If Trump wants to bring this investigation to a close, all he has to do is give a straight answer to these questions and let the chips fall where they may.

Might I suggest he do this before the midterms rather than after?

But then, he's the one with the high priced legal counsel.

Strange the way they all keep insisting that everyone works for Trump.

This is a lie.

from salon:

"On Tuesday, Fox News correspondent Ed Henry reported that sources "in the Trump orbit" speculated that the president had leaked the list himself"
