People see different things in different people.


Quite frankly, I'm astonished that people could vote for someone who (does or allows other to do for them) cheats, disenfranchises voters, and calls those exercising their rights terrorists......but I guess they saw the other side as much worse.


Oh, well!


Horse races.

The report was supposed to be released no later than the end of 2018. If Mueller had anything on Trump it would have been leaked, probably before the mid term elections. Since neither of these things has happened, I'm concluding that the entire thing has been a waste of money and time.

Do you have links to support when the investigation was supposed to end?

The leftists know this. And they aren't sure whether to 1. continue on, as they are, 2. initiate impeachment proceedings -- which they know will probably fail, or 3. just wait until 2020 when they think they can beat Trump the old fashioned way -- at the ballot box. The problem here is that they have a bunch of communists, promising free stuff, and anti-Trump hate -- but not much else. They might very well lose again in 2020 running one of these people. Further muddying the waters is Howard Schultz who is making noise about an independent run.


It's a tough position to be in.
#4 is to pretend there was No Mueller Investigation and to initiate Investigations in the House of Representatives. They really expect the public to forget that Mueller investigated for 2 years @ a cost of about $30 Million and found ZIP.

Why will they do this? They have nothing else to run on except Orange Man Bad Russian.

Because many Leftists were voting against Trump, and not necessarily for Hillary. Besides, Leftists vote not necessarily for a candidate but for a party.

Exactly, Mueller is now just treading water because if announces that he has found nothing on Russian collusion, then his investigation will be over.

that's not true. we know ( thanks to incompetently redacted court filings from manafort's legal team ) that the campaign was directly colluding with pro-russian ukrainians with direct links to russian intelligence.

It's a tough position to be in.
This one's a lot tougher:

tRump
Unreality
Bubble

It's endemic among the radical right.

When it pops, it'll hurt.
