It's kind of fascinating how bad Trump is at corruption.

I'm pretty happy at how Comey took notes on loving everything.

Nothing matters till 2018, and then it will only matter if Democrats take both houses of congress. R's give no fucks about anything.

Well, from here it's obvious that Sessions, Pence, Bannon, and Cheeto are all complicit in many of these doings. While the Rs probably don't want to do this, if they wait 'till 2018 they run the risk of a Dem house, meaning Nancy "loving" Pelosi would be pres. with one of the houses of legislature on her side. The best-case scenario for the Rs at this point is to defect as fast as humanly loving possible and put Ryan in the WH.

There's a good documentary on Netflix called "Get me Roger Stone" and is about this crazy republican. Basically Josh Lyman but evil and republican. There was a lot of good information and Roger Stone is in the documentary taking the filmmakers along with him. It's really good.

This is an old Hoover trick that I'm sure every FBI director gets drilled into their head when they take the job. Document absolutely everything. Communicate everything even when you know the president isn't going to read it. That way your rear end is covered.

Not covered enough to avoid being fired, but there's no way Comey is going to actually get bullied into going down for anything if these Trump tapes exist.

The funny thing is there is a real clear blueprint for the Republicans to come out on top but they won't do it. Find a moderate Republican and make him the anti-Trump crusader. Have him point out all the fiscal irresponsibility, the danger to our intelligence agencies etc. Even if Trump stays in office, have him be a primary challenger in the next election. Unless the Dems field an Obama level candidate in terms of excitement, they would win handily.

I mean, that's what Mike Pence is, the "safety valve."

Which is kinda terrifying if the only differentiation between the actual GOP and Trump is just Russia, but there it is. Maybe the Dems won't make Russia the only focal point of their attack and can bring the Republicans down as a whole... oh. No, they're not doing that at all. We're all dead.

Of course not. But the Republicans never have to run a moderate again to win, so why would they. After all, last two times they did, they lost.

For real, Trump is way better than Pence. Trump at least stepped out of the TPP and threatened to leave NAFTA before agreeing to a renegotiation.

My fiancee wrote a article about 13 Reasons Why that ended up on Hello Giggles. She is a child and adolescent psychologist, so the article is written for that crowd, but its still a good read. Have your children read it to if they watch the show!

http://hellogiggles.com/adolescent-psychologist-lessons-13-reasons-why/

It's impressive that your fiancee is an adolescent psyhologist and a child but it's hosed up that you're engaged to a minor.

Edit: I can see why somebody would've trusted Trump over Hillary. Hilldawg had a habit of coming up with these twisted word salads that meant absolutely nothing and made her look insincere. Trump's vocabulary consists of about the same number of words as the average Dr. Seuss book and it's not unreasonable to think that either A: He's too stupid to hide the truth, or B: if he did try to lie, it would be really, really loving obvious. Funnily enough, in reality it's a little from column A and a little from column B.

The Gist today (in jest) said the plausible deniability that Trump knows nothing and has repeatedly shown he knows nothing is his best defense at this point

technically "I hope you can drop this" isn't a request to drop it, and that is probably a large enough technicality to drive a defense through. The comey memo if completely true probably isn't gonna be enough to pin an obstruction charge to.
