For witness tampering....why tamper with witnesses if there's no crime....

Oh and our Chit Midas Prez says he wants us all to stand just like they do in NK for Kim...because he's such a strong leader and his people love him

Rudy talking pardons AGAIN today. If no guilt, then why the need to pardon? Trump surrounded by suspect and seedy characters - standard operating procedure for the prez who is envious of Kim's authoritarian power.

It seems to go over their head that if he pardons anyone they admit to the guilt of the crime...which is going to be treason. I wonder what justification(BS) Trump supporters will conjure up, much like the lies he does on a moment by moment basis...

In the end I still say we'll need to vote Trump and his enablers in Congress out of office to end this attack on our institution of Democracy...And maybe that's the way it should be. Maybe it's a wake up to Americans that it's time to participate in this great experiment or lose it. Seriously, this Congress will never impeach him. They've made that clear...

Regardless, I do take some satisfaction that maybe, just maybe, people like Paul Manafort will pay some price for their misdeeds. A decade or two in prison sounds about right for Pauli.

Who here is defending Manafort? Nobody. Zero persons. He is a typical lobbyist enriching himself. Washington is rotten to the core. His crimes occurred well before Trump decided to associate with him.

This make great news headlines and leftists can cling to a Russia story, and Mueller at least landed a legal size fish and has something to show for this witchhunt.

Manafort was campaign chair for Trump for 140 + days, but Trump lied today and said 49 days. Why would Trump attempt to minimze Manafort's role in the campaign unless King Trump has something to hide? goob, maybe you give a logical cover for that whopper?

Trump was a client of Manafort and Stones company back in the 1980's they've known each other for decades....just like the amount of time DT has been a festering boil on the American public

So Trump hired a guy to lead his campaign who had already committed these crimes, along with Michael Flyinn, after he was warned by Obama that he was compromised? That's who you want to follow and trust? I hope you're not a parent.

I agree 100%. I've been saying since he got elected that the only thing we can do to get rid of him is to vote him out in 2020, but sadly I don't see that happening.

The special elections and state elections since Dictator Wannabe Trump won office have swung blue. The big question mark is in the mid term elections. If there is continued momentum and Republicans are shown the exit door, then there might be a real set of checks and balances on Donnie as opposed to those in Congress now afraid to challenge him...even when he goes against traditional GOP beliefs. The sellout to Trump of previously held conservative tenets is shocking.

If he looses the House and / or Senate, this alone will not portend well for Trump in 2020. Voter turnout from a mobilized electorate led by younger voters and many other factions turned off to Trumco may give the numbers needed to rid this country of his ilk. With additional luck on his alleged criminal activity and ethics violations, hopefully we'll be done with him as bad history.

Hey Goldtop is that "Republicans are the dumbest group of voters" Trump quote from People Magazine for real ? I recently registered Republican and that pisses me off, how can they stand this guy mocking them, taking them and the country for a joyride? Unfrekinreal. Just unbelievable. What the h*ll is wrong with these folks? I registered Republican to vote for anti-Trump candidates in the primaries. He is a menace.

Yes, Gina, it is true. And the thing is - That's about the only thing he said that is true. He's a serial liar. Just take this past Friday for example. Here's a fact check on it, but anyone who has followed reality over the last several years would not need a fact check to know he lies as often as he breathes, yet his base doesn't care. What does that say about his loyalists? Hook, line, and sinker.

I am anti Trump but as I posted above that appears to be not true.
