    Here is the key paragraph in the NYT story and it is typical of how the left thinks:

    Trump's biggest crime as far as liberals are concerned was that he would not give in to their demands

    Take him down if you can but don't expect him to meekly surrender and throw himself on the mercy of his accusers

    It will be Republicans who take him down.
    He's an embarrassment to any true republican.

    It's Trump's MO.
    Promise, and then don't deliver.
    Trump is a proven liar.
    He won't testify under oath.

    Most republicans in washington who have been there more than 10-12 years have "gone native" and are totally corrupt and undependable

    If only it was just a conservative government. To ally itself with DUP could have serious consequences. Just waiting for one in that bubble to look up what the abbreviation DUP stands for and then say that they are left wing (Democratic)!

    Apparently you aren't familiar with the law. But then again since you're a trumpette its not suprising.

    Except personal notes on recollections are not government documents. Especially when they aren't even considered classified. AND, he was a non-government employee at the time. Keep trying to inflate and deflect.

    I wonder how many jailhouse lawyers will agree with your legal opinon

    It might be hard to get a conviction in ultra liberal trump hatiing washiington dc where his trial would be held

    But legally he does not have a leg to stand on

    It looks like Loretta Lynch and James Comey interfered in the 2016 election more than Vladimir Putin could even have dreamed of.

    I can guarantee everyone that the OP is correct; the donald will never voluntarily testify under oath (key word is voluntarily). I can also guarantee any one and every one that there are 'no tapes'. Tapes would only prove that trump was nothing more than a lying piece of s---. Even if trump did have a secret recording system he will announce there were no tapes.

    What would be the purpose of him taking an oath to answer these questions? It doesn't matter what was said between Trump and Comey. It's not obstruction of justice for a president to use his constitutional powers. Trump can order the FBI to halt ALL investigations tomorrow, and there is nothing illegal about that.

    I agree he doesn't have a leg to stand on. If the NSA and the DNI confirm reports of trump direct requests to "go easy on flynn" or to "talk to the fbi" he's toast.

    I don't care how many jailhouse lawyers agree with my opinion. All or none is irrelevant. None of us are going to be adjudicating the issue. I'll leave it to the courts.

    pssst. keep ignorning all those "classified setting" answers during the senate hearings. You honestly think the hold the answers to trump's complete vindication and will prove this whole "russia thing" was merely a hoax perpetrated by angry loser liberals?

    Can't argue with crazy, stupid, faith and entrenched partisanism. Facts and reality just keep bouncing off their foreheads.

    I don't have a law degree. I got my point from the most respected law professor in the US, who happens to be a hard core Liberal:



    Why not actually educate yourself on the matter, before freaking out like a chicken with it's head cut off?

    But you do see these are opinions right?

    There are lot's of people who respect Trump as well, it just isn't you. But you will admit that people are very different and one rose is another man's weed, and visa versa?

    Wait, what? What do you mean confirm?

    Confirm with who, the press and media?

    So far everyone else has so no collusion. I thought the argument was for obstruction of justice?

    Pretty interesting stuff coming out of Germany and France right now and International forums have been interesting to chat with.

    They want to start a defense fund and joint military plan for the both of them. Trump is an idiot the way he put it to our allies and was ridiculously abrasiveness, but all anyone wanted was for the EU to spend more money on their defense since we are in such a bad spot financially right now.

    Seems to be working

    That is such an ignorant claim it is hard to describe. The President can order the Director of the F.B.I. (the Director is not the top of the F.B.I.'s authority list, it is the president) to undertake or discontinue any investigation he wants to.

    President Trump could have told Comey "I order you to discontinue the investigation into General Flynn" and the president would have been exercising his final authority over F.B.I. investigations and any other matter of any domestic or foreign policy implications for any reason give or no reason give whatsoever.

    Comey was not the be-all, know-all top of the US government. The investigation of Flynn may have been seriously interfering with other foreign policy or intelligence matters. Possibly Flynn was working with the NSA, CIA, Justice Department and/or President in ways Comey did not know nor any reason to info Comey (particularly now that we know Comey is both a liar and a leaker).

    Who the hell did Comey think he was? We now know. Comey believed HE was head of the DOJ. That HE was the chief executive of the government. That HE was who sets domestic and foreign policy. That HE was the final authority and had the final say on everything. Comey was an ego maniac loose cannon on the deck and, as a leaker admittedly to try to alter and influence investigations and USA foreign policy, an extremely dangerous one.

    No, Comey was not the President of the United States, despite his believing he had the authority to act like he was, nor did Comey have the authority to exempt himself from criminal laws as he clearly believes.

    These hyperventilating panic-attack hate messages you incessantly post demonstrate the worthlessness of your messages and perspective for which there would be a more rational discussion with someone red eyed drunk at a corner tavern.

    The MSM and Democratic Party is fully dependent upon ignorance and blind submissive beta personality partisan cult followers.

    Well said. Your post should be made a Stickie.

    We should recruit volunteers to read and explain it to trump sickophants.

    Envy leading to hatred by someone of a failed life against people who are successful is certainly nothing new.

    Pure fantasy.

    You should talk to a professional about your delusions.
