    Your biggest problem in 2020 is this........

    Bernie Sanders Files To Run As A Democrat — And An Independent

    If Bernie even thinks it's 2016 all over again, which it will be. He will jump the Democrat ship and run as an Independent. He got 13 million votes to Hillary's 16 million. If he does that Biden can't win, neither can Bernie.

    Can you imagine if Sanders runs to the Democrat nominee's left and Howard Schultz runs to the Democrat nominee's right as independents both? The Dems would be split three ways while facing a united Republican party.

    Prove your 29 investigations involving Trump even peripherally that are run by someone other than house Democrats.

    Maybe false hope for some.

    In truth, with this president, it is a form of revenge for perceived injustice. It is the machinations of a generation of immature brats who got everything they wanted and don't believe they should have any responsibility for attaining anything of value.

    Funny that you should say that. Because it appears you have identified the Orange Turd's strategy. That is, lock up all these requests for information and testimony in the courts in the hope he can delay complying with the requests until after the election.

    President Turdball has made the calculation having to reveal the information sought by Congress is worse than the optics of obstructing it.

    I'm insinuating that the person they should trust the least is in their mirror. When you lie to yourself to support what you want to believe and escape responsibility for yourself- you are the victim as well as the perp, the whole crime in one bag.

    And again, you demonstrate the point; unable to see past your own limitations.
    Even for a moment- or perhaps you could but the power of denial quickly extinguishes any hint of those things you dare not see.

    Dude that is the Dems hope far more than Trump or the wouldn't be farting around about impeachment, they'd just do it boot it up to the senate and let the chips fall where they may. Pelosi long ago made the calculation that keeping these investigations into air going benefited the Dems politically far more than impeachment.

    Biden will not be the candidate, and the Bernies will vote for Biden.

    As you well know, some are run by the FBI, others by the Staties, one by the Senate intel cmte, so forth. I don't care whether you like it or deny it.

    So 29 is basically a guess then. And you have no more idea whether they are chasing Trump or white elephants than I do.

    29 has been posted, and whether like or don't does not matter.

    With the Mueller Savior's no recommendation for indictment or impeachment, no denial is needed.

    After two long years of Herculean effort with no limits or interference placed upon him it would be expected that Mueller said what he means.

    Interesting point of view, but Biden can't win an electoral college victory even if Bernie turns tail and hides. (Another scenario where Biden would likely squeak out the popular vote but get creamed in electoral college voting.)

    There is only one Dem candidate that can beat Trump to pull off an electoral college victory. And that person is being totally discounted.

    Trump in 2020 is almost a sure thing at this point especially with people like Nadler, Schiff and Warner continuing with their phony accusations and legal hysteria.

    Impeachment may begin in the House next spring, in order to show the recalcitrant criminality of the President during the midst of the election season. Also, his behavior could be criminal and used for indictment in federal courts after his defeat.

    Only time will tell, but Bernie won't stand for it a second time, it's why he registered in each state as a Democrat AND an Independent.

    Translation: The Dems don't have anyone who can beat Trump at the polls.

    Keep hoping. I understand if you find a 4 leaf clover, it might be enough to make your hope come true.
