Based on what evidence you offer, there is nothing to see. When you've got nothing, there's always the Clintons to invoke.

Are you going to post every single Fox News chyron?

 

"Are cats getting taller" Fox & Friends

 

 

Lanny Davis is a DC lawyer, everyone knows he was on Bill Clinton's impeachment team.

 

tRUmp hired Emmet Flood in May, replacing Ty Cobb. Flood also represented Bill Clinton during the impeachment. Coincidence?

Cohen Lied to save his skin. The real truth will come out when the investigation of what the DNC did begins, which will be shortly. 

You m an running a shadow government in coordination with the wizards?

Can't help but thinking of Al Capone here -- for all he did, what brought him down was tax evasion.

All this Cohen stuff, when you get down to the core of the whole mess, had to do with DT dipping his wick.  And of course yapping off.  You'd think someone over 70 would know when to keep their mouth shut.

And someone that thinks their a gangster

question to ask yourself is:  despite the obvious swamp, why do 40% continue to support him.

I believe,  they sense the 'game is rigged' , and he is trying to do something different , despite the terrible incompetent results, they still prefer  someone in charge, who they believe is against 'big government' , because they have conflated government, taxes, etc, with the real evil which is neoliberalism.

I think it is much worse: a big part of society wants MAWA. Latent racists who want to go back 30 years.

Perhaps there is a genuine need to shake things up but this idea of “big government” is more akin to a conspiracy theory than anything else as there really is little evidence that parties in power are working against the good of the people except oddly enough, this Republicans administration and this incompetent POTUS. 

I do however agree that neoliberalism has gone too far and people get easily confused with what on the face of it seems a simple idea but doesn’t take enough account of people’s inherant greed and a “me, me, me” attitude that seems to be the norm these days.

But sorry, Ive no idea what your last paragraph means never mind what it’s trying to say.

Speaking of "just plain idiots", over half of Republicans believe that Hillary was involved in a child sex ring run out of pizza parlors, and a similar number still believe Obama was born in Kenya:

I couldn't find a poll on how many believe Qanon is a real deep state mole.

 

This gives an idea of the intellectual caliber of many Trump supporters.

Most members of congress have done far worse? Evidence?

The evidence is that they are in congress. For pure corruption look at the Kennedy Clan. Trump has nothing on them.

It's not deflection its comparison and context.  Joe Kennedy and his clan and Mayor Daley were far more corrupt.  The subject here is not just Trump but political corruption.

AP: National Enquirer hid damaging Trump stories in a safe

 

WASHINGTON (AP) — The National Enquirer kept a safe containing documents on hush money payments and other damaging stories it killed as part of its cozy relationship with Donald Trump leading up to the 2016 presidential election, people familiar with the arrangement told The Associated Press.

 

The detail came as several media outlets reported on Thursday that federal prosecutors had granted immunity to National Enquirer chief David Pecker, potentially laying bare his efforts to protect his longtime friend Trump.

 

Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty this week to campaign finance violations alleging he, Trump and the tabloid were involved in buying the silence of a porn actress and a Playboy model who alleged affairs with Trump.

It's not "incompetent results". It's results that purposely overwhelmingly favor the wealthy and powerful. When it comes to draining the swamp, Trump is actually plugging the drains.

no, but keep pretending, while deflecting yourself

Cohen’s guilty plea has opened the door for Avenatti to petition the judge in the ‘Stormy Danniels’ case to allow the case to continue (it was placed on hold on the basis it might prejudice Cohen in his defence against the crimes he just pleaded guilty to).

 

If, as is almost certain, the judge lifts the ‘hold’ Avenatti will depose Cohen and then depose Trump.

 

Illiberals Get your denial glasses on, the truth will (despite Trump’s best efforts) out!

I can not find the law or statute broken here, if there was one.
