But we knew about the Republican side of the swamp.

we also know about the Trump swamp and that Trump is dirty as hell himself.

you got conned.

Ok. Whatever. But you are the one who never can figure out where the pea is.

How many more times are you gonna say “we got him THIS time” only to lift the shell and find out it’s not there?

Why would I say Trump has been busted? The initial investigation isn’t completed. Trump may be totally clean (although once his money man started cooperating my personal opinion of how this eventually plays out changed).

I do understand the how comforting the “you got the Tater now” thing is though. There’s so much chaos you have to take what you can during the madness.

it appears that the popular vote was right after all.

…yep…right behind the electoral college.

Oh, the popular vote doesn’t count. It is a bit conforming knowing that more than half of voters didn’t get conned and realized Trump is crazy though. Maybe we can build off that.

What are you then. You guys are the ones claiming to be conservatives…and calling us conservatives liberals because we don’t support or stand in line behind Trump.

They are White Nationalists.

No. C’mon now.

you got conned.

…and you got Hillary.

No, we didn’t. And that’s what’s wrong with this country right now.

Konssurvative1 · 2018-09-08T14:49:43.826Z

Nah…thats just mean spirited I don’t believe they are. I think that some are Trump supporters but not all Trump supporters are white supremacists.

yeah, she was far superior in pretty much every way except trash talking like talk radio.

that’s a major thing to always consider in the future.

The resistance is writing op-eds for the New York Times. We are living in the worst Star Wars movie ever.

Your guys current hero, Bob Woodward, said the Clinton foundation was corrupt and she was refusing to answer questions about it. Of course, that was back int the days when we were being told his good days were all behind him.
But what its all about is the issues. Some anonymous letter where someone makes an unsupported claim with no real details and Democrats believe every vague word of it. This is a nothing.

JayJay · 2018-09-08T15:11:39.568Z

And we told you Trump was bringing in his own even more fetid swamp.

Yeah… us redneck whities and the 1 out of 8 black MEN and the more than 1 out of 4 Hispanics, Asians, and Jewish who voted for Trump.

Who would have thought there were so many who hated their own people?!

What are you guys smoking? You think Trump is trying to drain the swamp? Have you forgotten about Duincan Hunter and Collins? Trump doesn’t want them prosecuted. Those were inestigations by the Obama admin. Is this selective memory?

Are you also trying to change the “Deep State” definition? Up until the Op-Ed, the deeeep state was a bunch of Obama and Hillary holdovers working to control the government. Now, the deep state is what exactly? The swamp?

SO you are another who needs a venn diagram.

The deep state INCLUDED a bunch of Obama and Hillary holdovers. But we knew about the Republican side of the swamp.

Maybe you don’t know but thought you knew. Or maybe you knew but pretend now you didn’t.

Hunter and Collins are both definitely part of the swamp but Trump has publicly stated that it is wrong to charge them and get rid of them. He publicly stated that he wants to keep them in the swamp.

You can’t honestly declare that he is even trying to drain the swamp.

It just shows that Trump is pragmatic and flexible. You are too rigid in your thinking.

Look at you! LOLOLOL Always ready with the excuses.

As though this is real.

Libs will believe anything.

MichaelScarn · 2018-09-08T23:08:05.397Z

I don’t believe anything I don’t hear through my microwave.

Konssurvative1 · 2018-09-09T02:11:24.273Z

Wait yours talks to you too?

MichaelScarn · 2018-09-09T02:21:14.857Z

That’s how I found out about the Bowling Green massacre.

madasheck · 2018-09-10T01:13:31.213Z

Anyone remember those renegade Twitter accounts that were supposed to be from the Trump Admin.? I think most people thought they were fake. Maybe not now, though.

So this is interesting. Ann Coulter thinks the writer was Jared Kushner.

This is, frankly, incredible.

Opinion | I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration - The New York Times

The Times today is taking the rare step of publishing an anonymous Op-Ed essay. We have done so at the request of the author, a senior official in the Trump administration whose identity is known to us and whose job would be jeopardized by its disclosure. We believe publishing this essay anonymously is the only way to deliver an important perspective to our readers.

To be clear, ours is not the popular “resistance” of the left. We want the administration to succeed and think that many of its policies have already made America safer and more prosperous.

But we believe our first duty is to this country, and the president continues to act in a manner that is detrimental to the health of our republic.

Bets on who it is?

Remember this little ploy ? Likely from Brennan, a psyops action intended to drive Trump wild with paranoia and lead to irrational acts that might be impeachable.

So, frustrated that it did not work out as planned, what kind of tricky stuff would the former director of the CIA try? Just wondering. Any ideas?
