If he recuses himself, it will be similar to his statement this morning where it is conditional: "If during the course of the investigation it becomes clear that I need to recuse myself, I will".

that's the key, he's gonna go "it's now become clear that the mean ol' media won't leave us alone unless I recuse myself so i'll do it to shut up the failing new York times' key political reporter ed balls"

It's a little bit juvenile, but it's simple and it's timeless.

We let it be known that Schnorkles, for a snack, eats tiny pieces of shit.

You're picturing it and you're talking about it. That's a win in my book.

well yeah. comey went to bad for trump and helped nail the last few nails in her coffin and kept his job for ignoring the russia poo poo. if trump/sessions/etc go down. comey will as well.

the best part to me is that no one knows how many people in what roles are entangled in russian tentacles so the choices are broadly: grind thru rico style and destroy the gop, all faith in the us govt, or both; whack a mole each thing as it pops up and have this hovering over you politically and undermining american civic society for god knows how long; or try to sweep it under the rug and maybe take the least political damage but do nothing to even mitigate the infiltration of us govt by hostile foreign govt

its a big clear decision between doing whats probably best for country vs whats probably best for the republican party, with the option to be panic and flail around in the middle

its such a :krad: test to see exactly what these republicans truly value

doesn't outright accusing him of a criminal act open you up to actual non-bullshit libel charges if he gets exonerated?

people with 'biting' humor don't do well when they don't have someone to bite. trump is dumb and easy to bite. chapelle is the upside though, the down side is that michael moore is guaranteed to show back up again too if trump survives the first 18 months in office, and i've seen enough of his fat whiny rear end to last me the rest of my life already

I saw Michael Moore on some msnbc special and he was actually like a real genuine human being it was hosed up. First time he's come across sympathetic even a little bit
