Seems all hopes are pinned on Cohen composing about Prague…

Two years and noting but low quality indictments by the Enron/Ted Stevens crew…

I’m honestly curious (not expecting an honest response of course). How long do you folks feel this investigation should have taken? A week, a month? How long do you think it should have taken Mueller to exhaust all possible avenues and put out a report?

I’m not suggesting they be put on trial based only on the email contents. I’m glad there’s an investigation trying to get to the bottom of it. An investigation which is wrongly maligned as being a witch hunt when there are deadly serious issues at play here.

As for the trial of public opinion, they’ve already lost that for me. Their repeated lies should raise the concern of others as well.

If Trump looked the wrong way, they’d try and charge him with something.
Some how it would be Russian Collusion, because they’d say he got the look
from Putin. lol.

We don’t really argue about politics around here at all; we argue about reality._

So you’re saying Donald Trump is competely innocent with regards to conspiring with Russia and its agents to influence the results of the 2016 election?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This! This! This!

Man, I look forward to the day when we can go back to arguing politics. There’s a few folks I’d surely disagree with a lot more than I do now, and healthily so!

Trump could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and his supporters would say “see no collusion”

Hillary killed tons of people for no reason we know of, and laughed about it, then you voted for her…

What color is the sky in your world?

Yes… Obviously…

You would think collusion on a scale to win a national election would be easy to find. Obama said it was impossible to fix a presidential election…

It seems weird to me that Paul Manafort, Trump’s campaign manager, was sharing 2016 election polling data with a Russian intelligence operative, and then lied about doing so. Maybe that’s just normal campaign campaign manager behavior. Maybe Kilimnik is just a US political data buff. Who can say?

this thread aged remarkably well

I heard the same bs coming from the right during the Benghazi extravaganza. Mueller will write a report and then Trumps legal team will respond with their own. A couple dozen congressmen will talk about impeaching Trump but it won’t lead to nowhere because Nancy knows it’s dead in the senate.

By the time people figure all this out the 2020 election will already have passed.

That’s a pretty ineffectual equivocation between the Benghazi hoax and the criminal investigations into Trump and his circles.

“(P)retty ineffectual equivocation” is about the most generous characterization one could have given that statement.

The question going forward is how we deal with those denying collusion happened. They are essentially creationists now and aren’t really existing on the plane of reality like everyone else is.

Like are they lying, lying to themselves, do they not understand what is going on?

It’s an interesting dilemma.

Axxowiz · 2019-01-09T03:18:28.722Z

Ya Benghazi was a lot worse Americans died. Not some Russian trolls buying Facebook ads. This isn’t going to go we’re you guys have been pumping it for two years.

I’m not sure who has flogged those 4 American corpses more, Libyan extremists or American Republicans trying to monger a scandal out of unfortunate incident. Maybe the 9th investigation will turn up something that wasn’t known from the 1st one.

I kinda used to think that although we didn’t agree politically you were at least somewhat reasonable. Thanks for disabusing me of that notion.
