Still waiting for the evidence. Please provide proof that Trump or anyone on his team conspired with Russia. Until then, feel free to create an alternative reality.
Just don't go down the Mitch path. Hopefully someday he realizes how embarrassing his comments are.
You guys provide an article that says 7 sentences in "there is no evidence" but want to focus on what you imagined took place.
When I discuss fantasy, I prefer it to be good fantasy. So if you want to discuss Game if Thrones, Star Wars or The Dark Tower, let me know.
Stick that head ever deeper in the sand...
willfully ignorant hypocrisy...
you beat your chest and claim intellectual high ground...but didn't spend one second denying the shit show we've all witnessed for the last 4 weeks. Because...you can't....you simply can't...
So you can bash me all you want...but my how public opinion has badly shifted for the Trumplicans in such a short period of time...
Re: US Politics Thread
Good thing Trump canned her, that worked out well!
https://www.yahoo.com/news/former-actin … 05132.html
Who is Former Acting Attorney General Sally Yates?10. She warned the Trump administration about Michael Flynn weeks before his resignation.
Weeks prior to former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn announcing his resignation, Yates and the Justice Department had warned the White House he might be vulnerable to Russian blackmail, The Washington Post reports. The publication went on to report that Yates and another senior career national security official personally delivered the message to the White House counsel, which stated their belief that Flynn had misled Vice President Mike Pence and other senior officials about his communications with Russia.
It is not clear at this time what, if anything, the White House did with this information - but in his resignation letter, Flynn did concede he had provided Pence and other senior officials with "incomplete information."
Another remarkable fuck up directly tied to Trump bluster and political bullying/hypocrisy.

It all "looks bad" but let's see what these commissions unfold. "Worse than watergate" "worse than Pearl Harbor". At this point it sounds silly.

Yeah I'm not trying to make it out to be a Resignation issue, but it's not great let's just say that.
Oh, and this happened to Labor Cabinet pick Puzder, who coincidentally was canned today: http://www.politico.com/story/2017/02/p … bor-235030

He withdrew because the votes weren't there. Claims from an estranged wife in makeup 27 years ago weren't a factor. But continue to make shit up.

The votes weren't there because he beat his wife. The Politico article was released overnight & he withdraws the same day?? Are you not seeing the connection.

Post said it had to do with him hiring an illegal. No one gives a shit what an estranged spouse said on Oprah wearing a costume, that she later retracted under oath. He didn't have the votes.
Re: US Politics Thread
It's previously been seen by those in the Senate confirmation committees the past few weeks, so it likely swayed their vote:
Senators on the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, which will hold Puzder's confirmation hearing, have been reviewing the tape in private. Winfrey's company, the Oprah Winfrey Network, turned the tape over at the committee's request but has refused to provide a copy to the news media.
Politico obtained it from a different woman in the episode.
