Meanwhile, you could watch Trump melting down over Taylor on Twitter in real time today. Quite a sight to see.

As usual, this is all that you guys have anymore to support your endless Trump derangement.
Give it time. Much proof has already been accumulated.

The only derangement is coming from Trump. Its clear from his statements that he is not in control of himself and not living in reality.

What are all those right wing blogs you read saying about this scandal?

There needs to be some sort of consequences. My husband would lose his clearance and probably have more consequences if he simply forgot he had his phone on him in a SCIF.
Indeed, he likely would. As would I.

Some animals are more equal than others, eh?

Most likely they'll be moaning "Orange Man Bad" at the end while caressing their Obama lockets.
I guess that is what passes as an intelligent argument.


What did you think of Taylor's testimony.

Who knows? The Democrats are hiding the transcript. They leaked his opening statement, which is meaningless without cross examination and rebuttal witnesses (which are not allowed in the Democrats' kangaroo court).

The entire process is a sham. The Democrats would be screaming if a terrorist or an illegal alien got this kind of due process.

There's no such thing as a "bribe" from one government to another.

Quid pro quo is another term for SOP. It's the most normal and unobjectionable thing in the world.

Quid pro quo in this context is only “normal” when the “quo” is in the nation’s interest, rather than the President’s personal political interest. But you already knew that, yet for some reason feel compelled to play dumb

But, let’s keep our eyes on the Prize, which is Removal or Resignation
I.e., election nullification, for no cause whatsoever other than that you lost the election and control the apparatus of public opinion formation.

No, no, no, don't try that worn out "You lost, get over it" schtick. That lost it's appeal two years ago.

The reality is, if Donald Trump had started his term as a sane, intelligent, in control, non combative, willing to learn, reasonable human being, we would have little to complain about. One side, or the other, loses elections every 4 years, and you have NEVER seen this level of discontent and upheaval as in this particular Presidency.

Trump brought all of this on by himself. From his very first Inauguration speech, he had to come out with both guns blazing. He had no interest or ability in uniting this country, or working with anyone, especially our most valuable allies. He had this attitude of "My way or the highway", and he soon found out that he could not keep people working for him because they had the nerve to speak up to him and try to guide him. Trump is as dumb as a rock and getting dumber by the day.

So, don't even try pulling that card this time, we ain't buying it. You elected a turd of a human being, and you are reaping the rewards of making that lousy decision. Just because you are willing to sit by and watch this clown destroy everything in his path doesn't mean we have to sit by and go down the tubes with you.
