Where is/can Donald Trump take US (sic)?

So much for Russian collusion.

I wonder if the real objective of Mueller was to pin Trump on one of his dodgy deals. Getting trump on something dodgy he has done seems a lot more likely then the Russian beat-up.

I don't think they have an impeachable offence. El Presdiente can't be touched by some authorities.

Progressive news already has him on the green mile.

"What a tortured web we weave when we try to deceive." No wonder the Liar In Chief won't talk with the Mueller inquiry. There is no way on earth he could remember whatever actually happened because he has refabricated reality so many times.

His latest statement is a beauty. Apparently his ex lawyer Micahel Cohen is making up stories about paying the women "who he never slept with" hush money from campaign funds.

Nope. On Thursday 22nd Aug 2018 The Liar in Chief says he personally ponied up the cash to pay off these "lying women".

Despite the fact that Al Capone was known as the big cheese of organised crime - in the end he got done on tax fraud. Same result - different process.

Lock him up...

Reminds me of an interview with Gore Vidal where he said the Rockefeller brothers were furious at one of their brothers - who was Governor of NY or such - running for president, then VP.

Vidal say how the other Rockefeller didn't like, well, one, doing actual work when they can just have politicians working for them; two, running for high office mean everything comes out in the open.

If you're Trump or his handlers, you definitely do not want the authority looking closely at your dealings. But Trump can just pardon them though. It sends the message.

It is really a race to the line to see which "witch hunting" law group manges to land the fatal blow on the Trump clan of crooks. But maybe this can be cooperatve effort ?

A day after telling a federal court that Donald Trump directed him to violate campaign finance laws, Michael Cohen was hit with a subpoena in a separate investigation in New York state of Trump’s charitable foundation.

The New York state attorney general, Barbara Underwood, sued the Donald J Trump charitable foundation, Donald Trump and three of his children in June for allegedly violating state charity laws.

“The foundation is little more than an empty shell that functions with no oversight from its board of directors,” the lawsuit alleged.

They are not silencing people. They have no obligation to provide a platform for anyone who wants to say what they like. Even Alex Jones, who had his podcasts removed from Apple's platform, on his own website claims the right to not allow comments that he does not think fits his agenda.

Jones, et al. can continue to say and write what they like (within the law). There are plenty of far right media outlets for them to use.

I was specifically commenting on Apple removing Alex Jones' podcasts. Find me Antifa on Apple podcasts.

Alex Jones was just a pretext.

It's thought/speech control. Can't do it so openly in a liberal democracy with freedom of the press and all that free speech. So you go after a loud mouthed idiot, first.

Then you take out any other idiots and organisation whose speech doesn't suit the national narratives.

So radio or shows sponsored by a foreign state your welfare paying gov't doesn't like, you take out. Countries like Soviet Russia, Axis of evil Iran; Communist Venezuela... are taken off.

Those from, say, China, Israel, Saudi Arabia... they're all good. They would never, ever, bs and push their agenda lying through their teeth.

Wait 'til Google gets back into China. This time they're going to do a proper vetting of searches the comrades deemed biased and nondemocratic, all over the world.

There has never been a President, that has attracted this much attention, it is really interesting.

From someone who doesn't give a ratz.ME

I think he is saying to the companies, that have offshored manufacturing jobs to Countries with cheap labour, we will put excise on your imports unless you return the factories home.

To the EU who have spent sod all on defence spending, then sign fuel and electricity contracts with Countries that are considered hostile, we aren't your backup unless you buy some of or gear.

To China he is saying we built factories in your Country, you don't respect interlectual knowledge and patents and reverse engineer our equipment. Unless you open up your markets to our products, or float your currency, we will put an import tax on your products. We buy $630billion of your stuff, you import $160billion of ours.

I really can't see what he is doing wrong, maybe someone can enlighten me, I haven't read a lot on it.

So if you cut out the "white noise", what is he saying that is wrong.

 

[bellenuit]

Some of hundreds of things.....

He is saying that if he appoints you Attorney General of the USA, your job is to protect him from prosecution, not to uphold the laws of the USA. If you lead the FBI, you are to lie to protect him and if you don't he will sack you.

He is saying that if he and his family set up a charitable trust, then that trust is to be used to illegally fund his campaign and to bribe others to assist him in his personal dealings.

He is saying that if you are a leader of a country and act like a thug, he will show you complete respect and collude with you to interfere with your own democratic process.

He is saying that if you protect him by withholding evidence from the law, he will respect you and consider pardoning you if you get convicted.

He is saying that if you are his lawyer, you should pay off, in contravention of election campaign rules, anyone who he has had an illicit affair with you so that knowledge of it doesn't become public.

He is saying that if you investigate him for wrongdoing, he will respond by attempting to destroy all legal institutions and denigrate their officials to deflect attention from the crimes he is being investigated for.

Yes, but that is like bad personal traits, that most politicians haven't been pulled up on.

I was talking about his policies, in respect of fixing the economy, which is what will effect us.

The stuff you posted actually doesn't matter to us at all, unless you are interested in the politics of it.
