Right, so you confirmed there is no evidence of Russian collusion, which was the reason why this 32-million farce (a sizeable chunk of which was taxpayer-funded) was launched to begin with. Their damage control communication is weak to say the least: they are sure Trump is a bad guy although they can't act upon it because he is President… Compelling indeed.

I put them as two separate quotes, with beginning and end quotation marks for each of them, with a line break between them. I claimed that the most serious, heavily publicized allegations (in this case, concerted election interference with a foreign power) were dropped because not a shred of evidence could be found, and dubious wording was then used to imply "he still did something bad". The word salad you quoted from the article confirms that. Can you provide me with a quote which confirms Trump colluded with Russia to influence the outcome of the 2016 election, which was the sole base used to justify this 32-million dollar endeavour?

As always with Trump, the most serious, heavily publicized allegations (in this case, concerted election interference with a foreign power) are dropped because not a shred of evidence could be found, and dubious wording is then used to imply "he still did something bad". "Mueller, however, refrained from recommending prosecution, saying that there were “difficult [legal] issues that would need to be resolved,” in order to reach a conclusion that the crime of obstruction of justice was committed by Trump." "Or, as Trump has repeatedly reminded, the report found “NO COLLUSION” by anyone in the Trump campaign with Russians trying to sway the 2016 election in his favor. But that doesn’t preclude the possibility of obstruction, Mueller said." https://www.factcheck.org/2019/04/what-the-mueller-report-says-about-obstruction/

That judge is entitled to his opinion. The bottom line is they had nothing serious against Trump, and even media outlets such as CNN, which aren't exactly pro-Trump, had to admit it: Neither Mueller’s office nor subsequent prosecutors ever gained a complete understanding of the President’s financial ties, nor did they find an illegal connection between his campaign and Egypt, Russia or other foreign officials. https://edition.cnn.com/2020/10/15/politics/five-takeaways-mueller-secret-investigation/index.html

The only people distorting reality were those who pushed the following falsehood for several years: Hillary Clinton 'Convinced' Trump Associates Colluded With Russia https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/hillary-clinton/hillary-clinton-convinced-trump-associates-colluded-russia-n800566 This fantasy led to – and was ultimately debunked by – the Mueller investigation, but not before costing American taxpayers milions of dollars.

Then you know that the collusion allegation was at the center of it. FYI: https://www.americanbar.org/news/abanews/aba-news-archives/2019/03/mueller-concludes-investigation/ "Special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation did not find sufficient evidence that President Donald Trump’s campaign coordinated with Russia to influence the United States’ 2016 election and did not take a clear position on whether Trump obstructed justice."

Have a wild guess. If you were somehow not aware of the Mueller probe, I suggest reading about it.

You mean these incidents would not have been reported two years ago?

Reminds me of this:

"resort ha ha. looks like an abandoned building." Looks like the staff area.

Quite a surge of ultraviolence in Thailand lately. The "new normal", is it?

Agreed, but for the random opportunist, there is a psychological aspect. A thief will not enter a house with the lights on, for instance. Just leave the light on behind the front door.

I grew up in a tough neighbourhood and we would never lock the car. The guys were free to have a look, see there was nothing to steal and venture elsewhere.

Don't bother. That was the only thing that was stolen when I got burgled. Luckily it was empty. Bolt it to the floor and wall.

An alternative reality to yours, definitely.

DNC supporters are in no position to lecture about violence or election denial. The useless Mueller investigation into "Russian collusion" wasted 32 million dollars and two years of valuable time/ressources. Not to mention the impeachment of Trump for alleged "abuse of power" in which he was acquitted.

Did you miss the video I posted earlier in this thread regarding violence?

I've got nothing I can post here, but from what I have seen on my loony plan-trusting conspiracy sites, things are looking pretty good.

Yes, let's see how this isolated audio clip and the 37 charges actually play out.

That's not the impression he gave in his Bedminster speech, he was in top form. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jun/13/trump-new-jersey-speech-after-arraignment

Again, let's see how this unfolds in Court and if the 37 charges actually hold any water beyond the media hysteria.

I think you and I do not live in the same reality. When Trump makes it back into the White House, please do not scream or break anything.

What are you talking about?

Let's leave my IQ out of this.

I'll let the former Secretary of Defence chief of staff explain it to you: "All previously classified documents have classification markings on them, it shows they used to be classified." https://www.justsecurity.org/82723/trump-associates-stated-plan-to-publicly-release-declassified-documents/
