When I saw all of those GOP representatives on tv the other day, angrily attacking the FBI guy, you could see right through their fake outrage and know their true motive was to try to discredit the entire Mueller investigation. Mueller has them all scared as Hell, and this latest release of 12 names was Muellers way of letting them know he doesn't give a damn about how much they threaten him, he is going to do what he needs to do, and what he was hired to do.

Mueller is going to go down in history just like all the brave men who brought Richard Nixon to his knees. This is our modern day Watergate, and this will be discussed by scholars for decades because of how twisted the GOP and Trump have been throughout the entire process.
You know Hillary LOST, right? And she lost because she was a horrible, opportunistic person that nobody wanted for President.


If Trump has done anything illegal (past or present), please provide his arrest record and the amount of time he spent in prison.


That goes for all the things the Libs have accused him of... from cheap strippers to annoying sleazy attorney's, to woman fondled on the airplane, to dark Russian backrooms where he supposedly kissed the Russians. When you come back to me with all of that, I will consider what you have to say.

As early as 2014, the administration received a report that quoted a well-connected Russian source as saying that the Kremlin was building a disinformation arm that could be used to interfere in Western democracies. The report, according to an official familiar with it, included a quote from the Russian source telling U.S. officials in Moscow, "You have no idea how extensive these networks are in Europe ... and in the U.S., Russia has penetrated media organizations, lobbying firms, political parties, governments and militaries in all of these places."



This is what Obama knew as far back as 2014. He chose to do nothing about it, "didn't want to influence the election" So instead, he was ok with Russia doing it. He could have stopped it.

I was not happy with Obama's laissez-faire attitude then, but it's a far cry from being in bed with Putin and having Russian sympathizers, profiteers infesting one's administration and having actual Russians influencing the election.

Obama is no longer president - Trump is. He is cya-ing for all he is worth right now, while anticipating his meeting with his hero, the sociopathic Vladimir Putin. I dread what will happen at tomorrow's meeting with Putin, who is far more intelligent and wily than the hapless and erratic Donald Trump.

Yet three million more Americans voted for her over Trump...

Skeddy, the looney left around here have to find a way to blame it on Trump.

Pajama Boy Obama could do no wrong. His administration is being revealed as the most corrupt we've ever seen.

New York Times "analysis" about Trump.

Fascinates me the mindset that still pays mind to that fishwrap.

General Colin Powel and President GW Bush had a conversation about Mr. Putin. GWB said “ I looked into his eyes and I saw his soul” and Powel said “ All due respect sir, but when I looked into his eyes, I saw the KGB”

Trump is no match for that muderous man whose goal is putting the old Soviet Union back in place. Breaking up NATO is a gift to Putin. And there is no doubt that they interfered in our election. I doubt if it truly affected the outcome more than Comey’s Ill timed announcements, but the fact that they even tried is an act of hubris that should be dealt with harshly.

Obama got even with Putin by increasing oil production here, and getting the Saudis to do the same. This crushing of oil prices devastated Putin’s economy. Obama and Putin detested each other.

I’m uncomfortable with President Trump meeting with Putin alone. Trump, because of narcissistic personality disorder, is easy to manipulate with praise or criticism. Putin’s a freakin KGB agent. Trumps a rich kid who was born with a silver spoon. Not a fair fight.

Perhaps 'curious attraction to Putin" is a more accurate statement. Trump cannot fawn over him enough.
