MWC, why do you think the investigation has nothing? Mueller has already indicted four people from Trumps team, and the investigation is still ongoing. What evidence do you have that this is just a nothingburger? Im being calm and serious here, not attacking you.


I didn't think you were.

There is a reason I didn't launch at you like I did Peace. I apologize if you thought I was.

Anyway, i believe it's quite apparent by now that those indictments had nothing to do with what Trump was involved in. Now I'm not some idiot saying they weren't involved with him.

I think it's painfully obvious by many people he put in power that Trump is a god awful judge of character. It's just clear the crimes weren't with Trump.

I will admit that, based on the information we currently have access to, there isnt concrete evidence of Trumps involvement in illegal activity. The key term, however, is currently have access to. We dont know the majority of information the investigation has uncovered. At this point we DO know that multiple members of Trumps campaign and transition team have been involved in illegal activities, and evidence has surfaced, first hand, of similar activities among other members of the team, including direct family members.

Now, maybe Trump is just a horrible leader that picks bad people. But there if everyone around him is doing illegal things, maybe its not such a bad thing to continue investigating whether or not he was personally involved. I mean, if Mueller was able to come out and definitively state he was innocent, wouldnt that strengthen the nation more than leaving the question of his innocence open-ended?

So the cherry picked gop memo ends up further legitimizing the investigation? No wonder it got the friday news dump treatment on super bowl weekend no less. This thing was more dangerous when it was an unknown.

Lmaaooooooooooo

Devin Nunes, on camera, on Fox News, admits he didnt even read the FISA applications.

Who did? Trae Gowdy, the guy who just threw in the towel and stated uniquivocally today on Twitter, The Mueller investigation is valid.

Can we never talk about this memo shit ever again? Lmao

Finally watched this...pretty funny! I'm gonna sympathize a moment though and say when I recently hosted a game of Family Feud for a work party, we had the championship and I called out the wrong team as the winner. Not the wrong team name -- I was celebrating the wrong people, the losers.

Whoops! I really channeled my inner Steve Harvey, which I think was karma for making fun of his Miss America mistake two years ago.

Anyway, Donald is human and he's allowed a dumb stupid moment like this here and there like the rest of us...but also lol.

(and WHERE'S RUDY is better for that expert camera timing)

there's a difference between making a mistake like that and acknowledging john cornyn and completely forgetting you did this 5 seconds later. if trump had said "peter cornyn" or whatever i'd agree that it's an insignificant mistake, but he comes across borderline senile here.

So Rasmussen's Friday daily poll was the strangest outlier.

He hit 49% approval, 49% disapproval.
His approval index is -3 (first time since April it's been single digits). It was -11 the day before and -14 the day before that.

In case you're brainwashed and don't think that republicans are the party of nazis:

https://twitter.com/astroehlein/status/960229849938919425

Holocaust denier poised to claim the Republican Party nomination in Illinois race for Congress. Hes also a former leader of the American Nazi Party & now heads a group called the America First Committee. https://t.co/rMtK6RMkak https://t.co/0i6lHuPRTl

Former leader of American Nazi Party is most definitely a Nazi.

Trump is seemingly trying to say that you shouldn't get a universal healthcare system that will save thousands of lives and be cheaper than the current system, because people will march in support of it? That or trying to mislead people into saying that they're marching against public healthcare.

RYAN: Thank you Weve heard youre going to be announcing your foreign policy team shortly Any you can share with us?

TRUMP: Well, I hadnt thought of doing it, but if you want I can give you some of the names Walid Phares, who you probably know, PhD, adviser to the House of Representatives caucus, and counter-terrorism expert; Carter Page, PhD; George Papadopoulos, hes an energy and oil consultant, excellent guy; the Honorable Joe Schmitz, [former] inspector general at the Department of Defense; [retired] Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg; and I have quite a few more. But thats a group of some of the people that we are dealing with. We have many other people in different aspects of what we do, but thats a representative group.
