Sure he does....because the media you watch does not show it, does not mean it is not...


Yes, that's all you have, the race card or you never would have thrown it...

Mueller to speak about his Report


The Mueller report shows Trump knew of the Russian efforts to help his campaign, and there were more than 140 direct contacts between the Trump campaign (at many levels from the middle range to the very top of the campaign structure) and Russian operatives or Russian government officials. So there's that ...

The Mueller report shows at least ten cases of obstruction of justice by Trump personally. The Russian crimes are an indisputable fact, the Trump cover up of the Russian crimes is detailed in the Mueller report (a fact Mueller reiterates in his public statement this thread is about). This begs the question: 'why did Trump cover up (or try to cover up) the crimes of a foreign power?' What motive has he to protect that foreign power?

Beyond that, there is the question of why did Trump try to do an end run around congress and unilaterally try to lift the sanctions on Russia in his very first days in office? <<< an indisputable fact

In this republic we the citizens have a right to answers to those questions.

Suspected obstruction....although it appears you love guilty until proven innocent....

I did not make any claim that they coordinated efforts with the Russians. I clearly stated that they were aware of what the Russians were doing (an indisputable fact), because the Russians made sure they knew it. The Trump campaign knew the Russians were helping and welcomed the help.

There is only that strange (and still unexplained) case of the chairman of the Trump campaign giving ... in person ... dozens of pages of private Republican polling data of important swing states to a Russian operative. Perhaps you have an explanation for that you could share here ...

Tell that to Trump, he has been chanting 'lock her up' for a long time, and promoted hoaxes like the 'birther' lie. Those who live by the sword will die by the sword. Trump will be judged in the same manner as he judges others.

The incidents related in the Mueller report would be chargeable against him if he were not president.

Any other citizen would be charged. To think one is guilty is the considered opinion any prosecutor would need to arrive at before they opened a case against you or I and made charges in a court of law. I am also saying that no man is above the law and Trump should be charged and made to answer for himself. He and his minions have been claiming 'case closed' but we are far from that, case open.

The accused can be regarded as innocent unless or until a trial proves them otherwise. All are entitled to that.

Trump has never been exonerated from these crimes (Mueller himself did say he would have done so if the evidence were different, but he could not), I am in favor of giving Trump his day in court so that he has an opportunity to clear his name, or otherwise face the consequences for his crimes.

So, where is the crime then...oh, you're mad....got it...

Charged, not guilty....but hey...when do the impeachment hearings start? if it was laid out like many of you say....then it should be easy....

I don't know why Pelosi is holding back the herd (one can speculate). But it is significant that the more times the executive branch opposes legitimate subpoenas, the more counts can be added to the charges.

I am in no particular hurry, but the congress needs to do it's job ... eventually.

We need to recognize that when the constitution was constructed, there were no political parties and many of the framers dreaded the idea that political factions might harden into parties such as were known in Britain.

The impeachment inquiry was not envisioned as a partisan exercise, but it was always expected to be a political one. The people's elected representatives were to oversee and check, if necessary, the executive branch. Parties were not factored into it then.

If we could just drop the partisan identity and look at the facts what would we want done here? I think we would simply want answers to the outstanding questions and we would want the full congress to deal with it fairly without partisan considerations ... but unfortunately that's not how the real world works these days.

In a partisan environment we are split into teams or tribes, each arguing 'for or against' with little regard for the facts and the exercise necessarily becomes all about making sure the voting public will understand and support the measure. I just want to see the public fully informed and congress do it's job and put everything they find into the congressional record for posterity. We will be judged in history by what we do today. Damn the political considerations.

Even Fox News? I think not other then bashing the liberals and the media as a whole Trump doesn’t stay on topic more then five minutes at a time.

I’ve got lots but the problem is that you can’t keep an open mind because it’s been brainwashed.
