    No it isn't. You've already broken the first rule of thumb with anything having to do with Trump. Take what he says with a grain of salt since he lies all the time, about everything...........all the time.

    Stone was convicted in federal court of seven felonies for obstructing the congressional inquiry, lying to investigators under oath and trying to block the testimony of a witness whose account would have exposed his lies. Jurors deliberated for a little over seven hours before convicting him on all counts. Together, the charges carry a maximum prison term of 50 years.

    I know the outcome of the trial and his convictions no need to repeat it while you avoid what I actually posted. NINE YEARS..............a bit much. Bill Clinton was charged with 8 felonies including witness tampering, subornation of perjury, obstruction of justice, perjury and he gave up his license to practice law for 5 years in a plea bargain. So take your emotions and hate for Trump out of it and practice some blind justice. 3 years, 2 suspended and probation for 5.

    He's a chameleon who played the game of the establishment Repub under Bush and now sees that in order to wield power he must play the game of Trumpery. Simply put, he's a traitor to the Constitution, a threat to the republic, and should be removed.

    I could care less what Trump says, 9 years is a bit outrageous especially when the the guy he was supposed to have tampered with and intimidated says it was nothing of the sort.

    A slightly different take. This is just prep for the judge's sentence next week, which no matter how weak will be "too strong" so that a pardon will be justified. Barr will testify, but plead "executive privilege" on virtually all questions involving Trump (on Stone and/or Ukraine) and simply state that he exercised "prosecutorial discretion" as AG, in overruling his Stone prosecutors. On Ukraine, he will say that he can't comment regarding an on-going investigation.

    You read my mind.

    Once upon a time Don thought what he did was illegal.

    Trump tweet.........“A.G. Lynch made law enforcement decisions for political purposes...gave Hillary Clinton a free pass and protection. Totally illegal!"

    We hear you, but no one seems to believe you. I mean, you're not winning anyone over. In fact, it's looking like we're going to have the house, the senate, the presidency and a mandate in less than a year. We will have, at least, one more supreme court justice appointed by Donald Sr. I gotta say, your criticisms are fading into the background like an incessantly barking neighborhood dog. After so long, no one even notices anymore.

    Are you trying to include me in this group of "low information idiots"? Did I miss the House impeaching him for bribing Ukraine? Which witness testified that a bribe was committed?

    They were political hit men who missed their target and now their target is shooting back so they are running for cover.

    The thing about this unprecedented ethical breach is, like all the other breaches before it committed by Trump, eventually it just becomes part of the normalization of autocracy. Trumpette's have lost their capacity for outrage with respect to Don. We can't let that happen to us.

    What ethical breach? What about the abuse of sentencing enhancements?
