Trump curses Mueller appointment: 'This is the end of my presidency'

Trump probably wasn't aware enough to know what the consequences of what he was saying would ultimately be.

Ignorance is not a legitimate defence. But then Trump doesn't care about legitimacy anyway, never did, never will. Only cares about the "appearance" of winning.

But none of that matters to those who wear blinders and idolize this scum bag.

Then you obviously know it is much closer than you purport to think it is. I don't think it is going to be close at all. To stay on topic Trump after the report has as many or more votes. 

 

He also already won the states that I gave away. MI, PA, WI. You can give two away and he still wins. 

It is really impossible to say exactly which way many states in the EC are going to fall. What is revealing though is the 2016 map by county.

 

 

 

Basically Trump won 84% of the geographic USA. Hillary only won in the dense cities. The problem with thinking the Mueller report is going to have any influence at all is that it is basically being ignored in the sea of red which represents the voting base of Trump.   Talking to people that live in cities is irrelevant. So we can debate swing states all day long, but if you really don't like Trump, you need to look carefully at that huge sea of red and figure out how to give them what they want. Trump did, and from what I can tell, his support in those areas has only increased.

so what is all the fuss about ? did Putin say in the press, vote for TRUMP? and march the electorate to the ballot box. Nah !!,  Obama came out in the press to tell the Brits to vote stay in the EU, (interfering <deleted>) did we take a blind bit on notice ? NO of course we didnt, and voted OUT

Obama took the open and honest high road.

Putin took the furtive road, the low road.

Like any of us haven't expressed such things in what we consider a private exchange. I am going to be late for work I am truly <deleted>. lol

I don’t ever recall expressing the that ‘I’m truly <deleted>’ in relation to to a criminal investigation.

 

I din’t recall anyone I know expressing such either.

There was no underlying crime, think of it from the eyes of a man who was never guilty in the first place.

If his minions refused to carry water for him then clearly there is no obstruction of justice, even though the intent was there.

He had a bad day. <deleted> me life is bad. There is no evidence in Trump's words you could take to a court or it would have been done. Thanks for playing.

That is contrary to the report. No intent was called.

Will president Pence be able to hold the office until 2020 or will there be a new elections before that?

 

Pence would be able to hold office, but would anyone want him too?

But the new York State attorney general does not. It ain't over yet. Tax fraud, bank fraud and money laundering are equally damaging

That will drag out for about 9 years with a halfway decent lawyer.

If I understood the setup correctly, the whole point of the Muller investigation was to push all the data and therefore charges to the state courts, which Trump doesn't have power over.

 

Do the initial investigation and make sure that Trump doesn't have powers to overcome those investigations. Trumps is a turnip.

Probably not. 

Aren't there even half decent folks who could become acting president of the USA?

You are pretty much wrong in every way I can think of. 

[MickeyDelux]

It's impossible to have a rational conversation with someone who doesn't like the Trump Presidency, I know, I've tried. The people I have spoken to start by attacking his character and what he doesn't like. It's as if they are living in another world. They seem to only know what CNN or other irrelevant news sources tell them, which they then like to quote as if it's gospel.  The dem's have done nothing to improve the average American's life. They only offer higher taxes and fear to American's.  It's common knowledge that the dem party is controlled by authoritarians and its demise is just a matter of time.

The report does not state there was no intent, just that it could not be established for all cases. Barr said, that there were other motives than 'corrupt intent', suggesting that some type of intent may be corrupt and others not (?).

 

In the report, it is for example written that:

“substantial evidence” that the president’s attempts to fire him “were linked to the Special Counsel’s oversight of investigations that involved the President’s conduct — and, most immediately, to reports that the President was being investigated for potential obstruction of justice.”

In another part, Mueller concludes there’s “substantial evidence” that the president’s attempts to fire him “were linked to the Special Counsel’s oversight of investigations that involved the President’s conduct — and, most immediately, to reports that the President was being investigated for potential obstruction of justice.”

Now let me get this straight.
Did Trump potentially obstruct what now turns out to be an INJUSTICE?

There are not any decent folks at all in the presidential line of succession. There's Trump, then Pence, then Pelosi, then Grassley, then Pompeo, then Mnuchin, then the guy from Boeing. It's a shit salad.

But if I play my cards right I am going to get health care and $1,000 a month right?

If you're a Yang Ganger.  I don't know. I paid $22,700 this year for health insurance for my wife and myself (and it's pretty shitty). The worst part is, neither my wife nor myself use the insurance, even when we think we ought to because the terms are so awful, if you go to the wrong emergency room you may not be covered. Like that's the first thing on your mind in an emergency. What it is is, horrendously expensive catastrophic care insurance. We just don't use it.

 

Anyhow, I'd never given much consideration to UBI before or as Yang calls it the "Freedom Dividend". I think it is intruiging, but I'm not convinced yet. Could be many unintended consequences, but I think it is worth exploring further.

You are probably going to get free health care, but the amount of money you'll get will depend how much you work. The amount is likely to be quite less than $1000 per month.

Sort of. That's why the obstruction case doesn't have legs. Trump being Trump is kindof a gimme in the obstruction realm.

you all realize this was only reported to be said by trump, it was not fact  or proven it was even said but dont let the truth get in the way of a good bitch
