“Did your staff contact realtors and arrange tours for you”

Kinda loses something when you see the “severity” of the charges.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Did you take a bic pen on December 3rd, 1962?

WildRose · 2018-05-17T04:03:59.780Z

Pretty much.

Hillary destroys evidence but it’s ok because “I don’t think she meant to commit a crime”, but hang this bastard!

Is that all that happened? All the other stuff I read about him must be fake news.

Try reading the article, then you might know what the thread is about.

Those of us who actually did read the article know that it pertains to a specific act.

His director of scheduling scheduled some stuff. gasp

I’m sure you have 100 years of previous legal action, or in the case of Comey/Hillary non legal action to point to backing your claim.

Make up your mind. Is it “All the other stuff I read about him” or is it his Director of scheduling scheduling stuff?

Dude…attacking is attempting to convict someone without due process. Look how you’re attacking me? You should be ashamed but this is how libs have been since Trump won the nomination. Oh looky, it’s that same year and a half you were just projecting.

Incredibly ironic post coming from someone who has repeatedly, and continues to, accuse DAG Rosenstein of being in a secret conspiracy to take out the President without even a hint of proof.

Smyrna · 2018-05-17T12:53:42.707Z

Supposedly Trump colluded with the Russians to get elected. All the intelligence agencies up and to the point that Sessions recused himself stated that there was no evidence of that. Still…a special prosecutor was formed to investigate it. Now…who inserted the few words defining the scope of the investigation outside of Russian collusion? Why would he do that? If you can answer that honestly, you’ll understand that Rosenstein is very smart and didn’t do it by accident.

I’m not sure if you are being intellectually dishonest, or if you really do not understand the facts of this discussion.

The SC was appointed because it was confirmed that Russia attacked our sovereignty and interfered in our election process. There was enough circumstantial evidence to warrant a full investigation into these facts, coupled with looking at whether any Americans assisted them in their attack. Part of that included investigating members of Trump’s campaign team, like Paul Manafort, who had incredibly close ties to people associated with the Putin regime. The scope of the appointment had to include looking to see if other crimes were committed in relation to the known fact of election interference. As an example, if Manafort did collude with Russia and people associated with Putin, and received financial rewards as a quid-pro-quo, Mueller would be required to investigate this angle. In doing so, he uncovered a litany of other crimes committed by Manafort.

Trying to make it seem like this is some sort of plot to take out the President is not only completely and ridiculously absurd, but it is shameful as well. As the judge stated who is overseeing one of the trials of Manafort, everything that Rosenstein did in his appointment of Mueller was completely and totally above board, procedures were followed to the letter, and the scope is exactly what it should have been.

That is the honest truth, and it is disappointing to see someone attack an American who has devoted his life to upholding our rule of law, and the very institutions he represents, based on some weird desire to defend someone as indefensible as Donald Trump of all people. A lying, sleazy, immoral, unethical, con-man turned politician. The way you, and others like you are acting, will go down in history as one of the darkest times in America, and you all will be judged harshly for the damage you are attempting to do to our nation.

I appreciate your honesty…I truly do but you’re naïve.

It’s not naive to base judgments on evidence, facts, and logic as opposed to wild eyed conspiracy theories devoid of facts or logic. Nor is it naive to desire to defend Americans who have devoted their life to the rule of law from baseless attacks on their character and integrity and continued commitment to ensuring our nation’s laws are upheld.

Trump and his supporters are proving themselves to be a cancer on this nation’s soul. They are giving rise and legitimacy to unethical, immoral, and fallacious beliefs which will cause untold, long-term damage to this great nation I love. It’s disturbing what you all are doing in the name of Donald Trump of all people. This goes well beyond sticking it to the establishment Smyrna.

Alright. We’ve both said our piece, now let’s watch it unfold.

Absolutely not.
