Welcome To Trump World

You should probably take your alleged legal expertise to the Department of Justice and FBI, where hundreds of lawyers have already procured multiple guilty pleas, prison sentences and dozens of indictments in a span of only 14 months, faster than any such investigation in modern history.

You key words would be,faster then any such investigation in modern history.

This has been the only trying to topple type of investigation in modern history,if you really believe that this is the only group in Washington not to be squeaky clean then you have to be new or just learning the process.

But yet nothing provided in the scope of the original investigations intent.

I love irony !

I find it ironic that America is concerned about China's willingness and desire to increase their military influence in a place called the 'South China Sea'. I mean gee...who saw that coming ?

I find it ironic when I still hear Republicans complaining about the Clinton Foundation. Close to a 90% rating from any entity that matters, up-to-date tax information amended, and a rating consistently higher than the Red Cross. If only those pesky CPAs over-seeing the multi-billion dollar ledger could have stopped the family from financing that damn wedding !

Is the IRS done with the President's tax returns yet ? It sure is taking a while. Perhaps the Mueller investigation is waiting on those returns too so they can properly finish their report. The President rarely lies or stretches the truth, so I'm sure everything is in order. He only hires the best people you know, and I'm sure that extends to accounting. I'm sure the accountants who worked for him are as capable as his attorneys of record. No concerns there !

I find it ironic that the left needs to find a porn star to represent thier emotions.

In other words, Trump isn’t — despite what 300-plus newspaper editorial boards would have us think — a root cause of American crisis. He is a symptom of preexisting conditions. This is important. Because if we delude ourselves into thinking that getting rid of Trump will fix what ails us, things will only get worse.Running down the list of what offends people about Trump, there is nothing here we haven’t seen before — and ignored when other presidents did them.

^ I think that is because the amount of plastic needed to create all of the participation trophies would have created a shortage and driven up costs for the other Chinese junk,that is cause and effect of schools teaching that everybody is a winner instead of sometimes we just do not get our way.

Michael Cohen, Donald Trump's personal lawyer and "fixer" for over 20 years and former Executive Vice President for the Trump Organization, has just surrendered to the FBI. He has cut a plea deal with federal prosecutors and is set to appear in federal court today to plead GUILTY to multiple charges of bank fraud, tax fraud, and violating campaign finance laws.

I'm particularly eager to see what the details are on the campaign finance violations, since that most certainly will involve Trump directly as he reimbursed Cohen for the 130K [[now proven illegal) hush money payment to Stormy Daniels.

Cohen surrenders to FBI....

"I will do anything to protect Donald Trump"

[aj3647]

Donald Trump's former Campaign Manager, Paul Manafort, GUILTY on eight felony counts. He faces up to 80 years in prison.

https://www.politico.com/story/2018/...updates-790591

LOL! Trump's former campaign manager AND his former longtime lawyer become convicted felons on the exact same day! "I only hire the best people" - Donald Trump

Weird that Trump seemingly surrounds himself almost entirely with criminals. It's OK though, I'm sure Trump hasn't done anything wrong. Manafort and Cohen were just coffee boys, Trump barely even knew them...

[aj3647]

Oh shit, Michael Cohen tells the court that he broke campaign finance laws "at the direction of the candidate [Donald Trump]."

This is now the first time that Donald Trump has been directly implicated in a crime. Get used to hearing the phrase "Un-indicted co-conspirator Donald Trump", because this is just getting started.

[canuck]

And don't forget the son in law's real estate tycoon dad. He also served time for major fraud. Great all-around helpers.

Thoughts and prayers, Trump cultists. Welcome to the beginning of the end.

Dont get me wrong, I like Chump. LOL

Are you sure that you are not poping the champagne cork a little pre mature?

With nobody commenting it is he said she said,the other one guilty on 2 counts of lying on a mortgage statement,which half of the country was doing back in 2006,and other charges that have nothing to do with Russian collusion and things that happened before the campaign.

Wake me up when you get some facts of the original intent of the investigation and not just throwing peanut butter against the wall hoping something sticks.

It must be jelly, cause jam dont shake like that.


Chumpty Dumpty is on his second vial of sleeping pills this week, and we've barely hit hump day.

I wish him all the best. He gonna be needing it.

The Donald's BFF's are convicted felons. Your comparison's are apples to oranges....LOL!

No one is "popping the champagne". There's still a criminal gangster/Russian troll in the White House, he's still an existential threat to the U.S., and he's a long way from being removed and imprisoned.

But Cohen just implicated Trump in Campaign Finance Violations, a felony. The only other President implicated in such a felony was Nixon, and it was grounds for impeachment.

And this is just the beginning. Trump could potentially be prosecuted for Bank Fraud and Tax Fraud in addition to Obstruction of Justice, Money Laundering, Campaign Finance Violations and Conspiracy to collude with Russia.

Of course, our current Congress is useless, and wouldn't remove Trump if there were videotape of him plotting with Putin to destroy the U.S., but come November, this country can potentially be restored to normalcy.

We should open back up Benghazi though.

[canuck]

Cohen would refuse a Presidential pardon from Chump according to his lawyer. Of course, we can surmise he will collaborate with the Mueller Investigation and get a reduced sentence.

I'm sure Fox News is busy today with Youtube cat videos, black NFL players, Q Anon and the conspiracy against saying Merry Christmas...

You just like making things up as you go along,conspiracy to collude with Russia ?

Watch the in depth interviews on you tube between Megan and Putin,he considered Hillary a close friend and only knew of Trump at the time from the newspapers.

When it comes to financial crimes,that should have been started back in 2006 but was overlooked for some reason and the ones that overlooked all of that are now working for the ones they gave a pass to,but because it does not involve the current president they are only used as a means to an end.

You are getting yourself all worked up but you still have another 6 years,so maybe pace yourself?

Do not be to disappointed when your blue wave turns into a slow trickle come November and you can take comfort in the fact that Trump is your president so the threat of destroying America,outside of your mind,has been trumped.

Glad you asked. From this AM:

Cohen's lawyer says he's completely flipped and will give information of Trump-linked conspiracy with Russia

Am I now supposed to chant, "Lock Him Up !!" like I'm in Junior High ? Or maybe a cute nickname like "Deceitful Donald" ? I could be a twit and make a tweet. Nah....because the only guy who's managed to tell the truth for the last 3 months or so, happens to be the attorney of a hired whore. He says we're only in the 2nd quarter of the game. I believe him. So I'll just sit back and twist one up and watch this unfold. I've even got my own soundtrack from my old sandisk...

I think it's time to start preparing for Donald's cornered animal reaction. One thing's for sure, whatever it is, it will be bigly.
