Whitewater, Benghazi, Emails....how many YEARS of investigations does that add up to? Whitewater was 7 years, Benghazi 5, emails....1-2? So 13-14 YEARS of investigations. They are either amazingly adept at escaping justice despite their vast criminal activity OR you are a sheep that believes everything presented to you.
So, you think Hillary committed no crimes ...but Trump did. Right. Okay ...typical Democrat. I guess smashing devices and deleting subpoenaed emails, etc. isn't a crime in your view. Unfortunately for you, the law says it is. Gross mishandling of classified information is also a crime, punishable by imprisonment (and I know this, because I had a security clearance while in the military ...and got all the lectures on the handling of classified materials). What she did just in that case was put our national security at risk. And that's only one of her crimes. "Pay for play" to enrich the Clinton Foundation ...and her own pockets ...is another. There is a long list of crimes for which Hillary should be prosecuted. Yet you want to focus on Trump, with no apparent crimes committed.

As for Benghazi, she lied to the American people about the cause, claiming "an offensive video." In fact, the cause was her failure to secure the compound, which she, as Secretary of State, had the responsibility to do. She ignored their requests for more security. She was at best, incompetent. But there's also a lot more to that story too, which the American people have a right to know.

The Clinton's entire political life, and especially Hillary's, has been a life of lying and criminal activity. There is a reason she was dubbed, "crooked Hillary" by Donald Trump. He didn't just make that up for the campaign. Trump is as aware as any other American of her past. But you don't seem to be ...or you are unwilling to acknowledge it. Perhaps you are too young? Perhaps you haven't been around long enough, or politically aware long enough, to know her past. But she has a long history going back to their days in Arkansas.

As to your last statement, you're very naive.

Not a Trump supporter but IF this is true Trump supporters wouldn’t care if he did or not. As long as Hillary isn’t president.

Conviction for a felony does not equate to accusation, nor does a conviction in the minds of the (m)asses.
Try reading some law.

First and foremost, we know for a fact now (other victims of Meuler’s shyster tactics have already revealed the pressure put upon them to provide false testimony against the President) that multiple felonies have been committed in the lead up to, the formation of the special council, and its ongoing tactics of extorting and tampering with witnesses (look that up in the law books pal). Very serious crimes have been committed, to include, but not limited to tampering with witnesses in a federal investigation, in the attempt to frame someone for a crime. When that someone happens to be the President of the United States, such felonious behavior indeed encroaches upon the slippery territory of sedition and treason.

Secondly, it seems the meat of the allegation revolves around the misuse of “campaign funds” for non-campaign activities. Given the immense wealth of Donald Trump, coupled with the fact that he largely self financed his campaign with his OWN MONEY, while he also donates his almost 1/2 Million dollar annual salary as President to charity, nobody with two functioning brain cells would believe that Trump would skim off money from a regulated campaign fund to pay off a two bit porn star/prostitute.

What’s next in the big headlines? Let me guess, Stormy Daniels will soon come forward and confess to being a Russian KGB agent, working directly for Putin.

FIND A HOBBY .... you have way too much free time on your hands.

Boy, Richard Nixon really could have used people like you back when he was in hot water ! Where were sheeple when he needed them most ?

As much as you want to believe that your boy has done nothing wrong, and that his "wealth" somehow shows what a wonderful person he is, the truth is, he is knee deep in trouble, and it is of his own making. Donald Trump has always played fast and loose with the law , and has gotten away with a lot of it because of having Attorneys who were able to "fix" his problems. When someone needs a "fixer", like Cohen, that should tell you something about the person.

The other thing you bring up is his "immense wealth". How do you know he is as rich as he proports ? Have you seen his financials ? Have you seen his tax returns ? Are you his accountant ? The answer is, you are simply blinded into thinking he is wealthy because of some of his trappings and his demeanor. For all we know, he could be borrowed up the kazoo, and , if he had to liquidate, he might be poorer than you.

IF he is so rich, why will not any normal lending institution loan him any money ? Why does he have to go to offshore, unconventional loan sharks to get money ? The answer is, because he is a poor credit risk and doesn't pay his bills. You and I can go down to the bank and finance a new car, Donald Trump can not...…….that should tell you something.

You have stars in your eyes and need to open them and see the reality of who , and what, Donald Trump really is.

basis for poll is a terminal TDS fantasy.


get your ire up about Obama sanctioning holder to falsify a warrant to spy on journalists


Obama lies about Benghazi to win an election and that is just fine


Obama calls isis the jv team to fit his narrative about the ME being a more tranquil place all, to win an election.


get incensed over Hillary destroying emails after they were subpoenaed, claiming she didn't remember 52 times, her emails slow walked by the corrupt Obama FBI. nothing to see there.


On and On of demonstrated, validated evidence and head in the sand media, trump haters and never trumpers willing to sell out the country by unethical means just to prevent trump from eradicating swamp creatures and their environment.

Just like "heads I win, tails you lose".

This is a lot like most threads and posts in the CD Politics forum IMO.

I would prefer that Trump be charged with these crimes once he leaves office. That way he could be sentenced to a prison term. If he is impeached all that would happen is he is removed from office.

According to FiveThirtyEight’s presidential approval tracker, 42.1 percent approve of the job Trump is doing as president, while 52.3 percent disapprove (a net approval rating of -10.2 points). At this time last week, 42.4 percent approved and 52.6 percent disapproved (a net approval rating of -10.2 points). One month ago today, Trump had an approval rating of 41.8 percent and a disapproval rating of 52.8 percent, for a net approval rating of -11.0 points.

Interesting. Let's complete some more of the sentence for a better picture of the potential implications.

Here are RCP comparable "approval" ratings of some congressional leaders.

Favorability Ratings: U.S. Political Leaders
Favorable ..Unfavorable ..Spread
Donald Trump ... 41.4 ........55.2 ......-13.8
Nancy Pelosi ......29.5 ........52.0.......-22.5
Mitch McConnell..21.8.........48.3.......-26.5
Chuck Schumer...29.3........ 42.7...... -13.4
Feel free to (find) pick some others who may run against him in 2020 (Note...most honest and legal people get to VOTE for 1 person in most states).

Conclusion?

Clearly he has no problem lying. Is Cohen a credible witness?


Also, assuming Trump WAS involved in suppressing the stories, was it because of the campaign? Or was it so his family and friends wouldn’t find out?

Until these questions are answered, how can you say that “two felonies were committed”?

True liberals would say innocent until proven guilty and would admit that Cohen's testimony might not be accurate as he tries to save himself.

There just aren't many true liberals left.

I know, right? The U.S. labor force is approximately 160 million people as of jan 2018. I really have no words unless it was a typo.
