If the facts were clear cut the Mueller investigation would have lasted 6 months and would have had a definitive answer. Presidents seem to function a lot in that area of ambiguity where the legality or illegality pf their actions is a matter of opinion
I agree with your last statement. I am a liberal Democrat, & I have little to zero respect for Trump as a leader or as a man. But I agree we need to eliminate some of the extreme political polarization currently afflicting this nation, and re-learn how to work together across the aisle. I agree with almost nothing coming from the conservative side, but I'm willing to find common ground--which I am convinced actually exists--or support politicians from both sides who demonstrate a willingness to work together for the benefit of the country.
Can you cite examples of the press lying about things that resulted in your current feelings toward them?
Drawing attention to Trump's constant lies & deceits is NOT treason. There are supposed to be checks & balances written into our Constitution, and that process needs to be allowed to function. Trump is an authoritarian leader, which is something the Constitution was written to avoid.
Obama was President for 8 years. The Constitution prohibits anyone serving in that office for more than 8 years. Obama can't be trying to overthrow the government, because there's no place for him to serve in it as President again. Obama was a professor of Constitutional Law at Harvard, and knows the Constitution better than you or I or you & I combined. Obama is enjoying retirement, but is concerned about some of the extremism & excesses being demonstrated by Trump as President. I don't blame Obama for that. I'm concerned too.
Your post illustrates how easy it is nowdays to become so narrowed in your views that you begin to regard your fellow Americans as the enemy. I don't agree with you or your politics, but I don't regard you as the "enemy." How very sad for you.
I don't know where you are going to pick up all this misinformation coupled with anger & hostility, but wherever it is, I strongly urge you to find a better source. This is extreme, conspiracy stuff that has NO BASIS IN FACT. To actually believe such nonsense would be terribly draining & depressing. Why live in such unnecessary anguish. Your post is ALL LIES. Get a grip on reality. Please.
When you call the President of the United States a liar, you already lost credibility. Everything that followed is fiction. Obama SPIED on the opposition party candidate. He used the CIA, FBI and NSA. Worst scandal ever, worst than Watergate. Stupid idiots people believe President Trump is a liar based on the lying media who told the Russian collusion lie a million times.
People need to stop being clueless. Obama the "Constitutional scholar" was overturned by the United States Supreme Court 9 - 0 on at least one occasion. He used the IRS to attack his political opponents to successfully rig the 2012 election against the Tea Party. He wiretapped journalists and their families. He spied on the opposition party candidate. What extremism and excesses of Trump's are worse than Obama's? We pride ourselves on a peaceful transition of power from one President to another. Seeking revenge, attempting to overturn election results that you don't like by trying to overthrow the government and the President of the United States is not how we do it in this country. We don't do coup d'état, we do elections. Obama spied on candidate Trump, President-elect Trump, and through his deep state treasonous allies left behind in the FBI and DOJ, he spied on the President of the United States and plotted to overthrow him through impeachment or resignation.
I didn't use the word enemy for you or anyone. I feel sad for gullible useful idiots who believe the treasonous alt-left lying media.
No basis in fact? This is not Alex Jones conspiracy theory crap. This is alt-left lying media who allowed the truth about Obama's treason to slip into stories intended to destroy President Trump. The Washington Post The New York Times The Guardian McClatchy Here is the case for Obama spying on Donald Trump from more than two years ago, from the above sources on Fox News by Mark Levin. And the media is SHOCKED at accusations of "SPYING". The idiot leftists in the alt-left media are just now beginning to admit the truth.
I fully agree with the post above. This is like asking Democrats if Obama should be charged for crimes. They deny he committed them. When Mueller cleared Trump, why would we call him wrong?
So the truth is Trump colluded with Russia to steal the election from Crooked Hillary? That's just insane. Check the previous post and watch the video. You need to accept the truth.
And strangely they get support from the media. Watch PBS and see them churn up hate against Trump. It is pathetic a public news site is used this way.
I agree we have always prided ourselves on a peaceful transition of power in the Presidency. We did the same in 2016, but in that election, for the first time, there was a growing conviction that the Russians were illegally influencing that election, and some serious suspicions that Trump might be working with them. In such a situation, there is no choice but to investigate. But to investigate is not spying. It's simply looking for the truth. There was no other way to handle this. It was a secret investigation at first, then became public with the Mueller probe. It was totally legit. While Trump was confirmed not colluding with the Russians, he was NOT confirmed innocent of charges that he attempted to obstruct that investigation at different times & ways. The investigation was legitimate & for a valid reason. Trump should be happy he was found innocent of collusion. The way he's acting now, defying subpoenas & instructing his subordinates to ignore them as well, is a breech of law & further evidence of obstruction. It is also creating an unnecessary Constitutional crisis. How can I honor or support a President so careless & thoughtless of the functions of government? I can't.
Over 800 former prosecutors, many of them Republicans, have made it very clear that if trump was not president he would be facing dozens of indictments..There’s something comical about Republicans who spent years going after Clinton and impeaching him for a lie about sex, but you don’t care about Russian and our democracy. Pretend it’s a birth certificate and maybe you’ll get upset
I watch PBS all the time and they report what Trump says and does. That isn’t hate, that’s reporting. Why don’t you just continue watching Fox news where they defend Trump when he should not be defended... You probably think the media is part of a huge conspiracy just the way the conman trump wants you to think, The media is the enemy of the people he says and you buy right into it
This is almost comical. Thank goodness you didn’t drag Anita Hill through the mud. Thank goodness you didn’t drag Bill Clinton through the mud. Thank goodness you didn’t drag Obama and his birth certificate through the mud. Cavanagh is a disgusting person and has displayed a temperament that is Unsuitable for a justice. But once again let’s blame the woman and believe a guy who sexually assaulted her.
Why exactly is Kavanagh a disgusting person? And why is his temperament unsuitable for a justice? He seems to be doing a stellar job so far.
It's no worse than the self-righteous, arrogant extreme right. Extremism in any form is ALWAYS a vice. America has been a success because it always managed to find that critical common ground in the middle between the extremes. Right now, we've lost that ability. But we desperately need to re-discover it.
