    Of course he had to be there. It is beyond disengenuous to suggest he could refuse to go. Come on. Get real.

    Trump must believe Hitler was a misunderstood evangelical.

    My take away from this thread is that the Russian collusion narrative is not going so well?

    It’s been a wild success. Even if it doesn’t get him out of office, it has crippled him and basically shuffled his first year directly into the trash bin.

    Anyone notice how Trump always controls the conversation? It makes liberals heads explode.

    Well, you are in for quite a disappointment. If you have been paying attention, the "investigation" has blown up in democrats faces.

    The question has already been answered here, on this board, and on the internet and in the media thousands of times. You are being extremely tiresome. The question is both childish and disengenuous. Adults don't enjoy having to repeat themselves over and over again.

    No it hasn't. Where have you been. With the release of the Fusion GPS transcripts we see that Trump and Friends are in deep, deep doo doo.

    "In a hard-hitting New York Times op-ed on January 2, Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch, the co-founders of Fusion GPS, slammed Trump and the GOP. “In the year since the publication of the so-called Steele dossier—the collection of intelligence reports we commissioned about Donald Trump’s ties to Russia—the president has repeatedly attacked us on Twitter,” wrote Simpson and Fritsch. “His allies in Congress have dug through our bank records and sought to tarnish our firm to punish us for highlighting his links to Russia. Conservative news outlets and even our former employer, The Wall Street Journal, have spun a succession of mendacious conspiracy theories about our motives and backers.”

    In their op-ed, they called for the public release of Simpson’s appearance before Senate Judiciary Committee.

    On January 9, Senator Feinstein, the ranking Democrat on the committee, did just that—unilaterally, and to the great consternation of Senator Grassley, who just one day earlier refused to release it and who attacked Feinstein’s action. Trump, the “very stable genius” whose lawyers are reportedly negotiating with Mueller (who wants face-to-face sworn testimony from the president), lashed out at Feinstein in a semi-coherent tweet, calling her “Sneaky Dianne Feinstein” and describing her action in releasing the transcript “underhanded and possibly illegal,” and “totally without authorization.” At a White House news conference this week, Trump hinted that he may not, after all, consent to meet with the special counsel, possibly setting up another test of wills between the White House and the Office of Special Counsel.

    The transcript of Simpson’s testimony, which ought to be required reading for every citizen seeking to inform herself about Russiagate, is highly informative, entertaining in parts, and shocking in other parts. (The 35-page dossier provides a detailed account of what various sources told Fusion GPS about a pattern of contacts, cooperation, and collusion between a series of Trump-related actors and various Russians. Its first sentence, written on June 20, 2016, reads: “Russian regime has been cultivating, supporting and assisting TRUMP for at least 5 years.”) "

    Trump is a very stable genius not-a-racist. Past presidents never felt the need to make these proclamations about their character, but at 38% approval, I suppose he has to.

    When you put yourself in situations that require you to constantly defend yourself of being racist that should be a red flag.

    You guys are extremely desperate to think that calling a third world African country a shithole is racist. You only strengthen his base with this utterly petty bullshit.

    So basically, everyone is racist, even if they're not. Now that's some fine logic right there.

    Trump: "I am not a racist"


    reminds me of Nixon's "I am not a crook"



    lots of irony in both statements
