Play stupid games win stupid prizes

Maybe the NRA should think twice before taking dirty money
---

the NRA needs to be done away with and make way for the rise of GOA.
---

This is it folks!!! This is what will finally make Hillary president!
---

NRA isn't even a gun rights group anymore its a Republican superPAC
---

Wait is this an issue? Don't we already know for a fact that many Middle Eastern countries directly contributed to HIllary's campaign?
---

Russia paid me. I spread propaganda for money. I am Russian government mole. Please, go easy on me.

Received money from Australia, Ukraine, Norway, Sweden, and Saudi Arabia and that's just the top donors. I don't understand what the issue is here.

because you used an argument the left can easily condense into two words, as if to dismiss the entire point of your rhetoric. to be fair, the conservatives do it too.

Fuck the NRA anyways. La Pierre can go eat a tide pod.

They're literally going after anything and everything they can to find a crumb against this president.

that's one perspective.

another perspective is that this shit show is bigly and the investigation is just going where the evidence takes it

Mal_Fet literally no longer believes the FBI because Trump told him to.

I'll give you one thing, you've been incredibly consistent in your complete lack of understanding of how investigations work.

NRA is one of the most corrupt organizations in america so this isn't surprising in the least

The TT says the NRA is part of the Trump-Russia "scandal" now

But the links just say that the FBI is "looking into it"

So is the NRA part of this or is there no proof yet

Mal spends the first 50 minutes of every CSI episode insisting the killer didn't do it.

When did I stop believing claims that were bereft of proof? Around the beginning of high school, when I also stopped believing in Christianity and pseudoscience like astrology.

I wonder if you guys will admit this whole thing was a witch hunt after four years - nothing being found, and conveniently, Trump's term is over. (after all the fake negative press tying him to Russia)

Will one of you guys at least, then, have the balls to say "you know what? We were wrong."

hmmm?

i have 100% faith in Mueller and i will accept whatever the results of his investigation are.

conversely, could YOU admit that this whole thing actually has substance if Mueller's report says so? how would you react if Mueller comes out and says "We have evidence to strongly suggest Trump is guilty of X, Y and Z and we recommend these charges"?

Why do you keep saying this

I've said multiple times that I like the things Trump does (and the economy is better for it).

Mal has wayyy more of an open mind than you three stooges tbh. Which one is Moe? He's the leader right?

Absolutely, but so far you guys have drained a year of Trump's presidency in doubt. Won't you feel guilty if this goes on for years and you wasted his term on a witch hunt? What does that say about the judicial process? That the media is in control of our government?

because I've seen you say multiple times "I don't support Trump"

if I'm wrong and you proclaim your support for the man, then I'll stop. but i was under the impression you were doing that thing where you deny supporting him while simultaneously defending even the most minor slight against him

Nah, it dragged down his approval and stymied any sort of attempt at meaningful legislation on his end.

Even if it turns out to be nothing, worth it. lol

No surprise if true, the republican party and the NRA are joined at the hip.

I really wish there was a group for liberal gun owners. We exist yet we can't support a group that sees us as the enemy.

1) well, i'm biased and I dont want Trump to accomplish anything

2) i don't think it's fair to blame the Mueller investigation on Trump's lack of accomplishments, it's not impeding his ability to govern. it dominates the news, yes, but Trump should be able to ignore it if he truly believed it had no merit.

So you have little respect for the system that the founding fathers put in place. Got it.

You know, honestly, I can't wait until a Democrat is the President again. I will be complaining about every little thing - right down to how he/she breathes or eats or laughs.

It's gonna be great.

Hell, you'd think that if he had nothing to hide, he'd actively be encouraging the investigation.

Literally the only reason this investigation (the special counsel investigation) is happening is because Trump is shady, and he fired the FBI director and bragged about it.

It's his own damn fault

how come?

i attribute that to Trump's inability to govern and the clusterfuck that is this administration.

I was mostly just sayin that to irk Caution.

I pretty much agree with you. Trump's inability to draft and pass legislation is because of his own general incompetence
