EwokEntourage posted:there's a perverse joy in watching another lawyer get hosed over by a lovely client Watching rich white shoes mangle client control with manifestly guilty super dumb rear end hole clients with social media accounts is so so cathartic. These trumpies are like sovereign citizen levels of dumbfuck. It's amazing, and there won't likely be another moment you can see honest to god client control and jailhouse lawyer poo poo coming out the white house.

These people think that Trump not being gone the day a story drops means it doesn't matter. Of course no mechanism exists to remove a sitting president overnight, so they will always be "right" going by that standard. And by "right" I mean "really loving stupid."

Isn't it extremely problematic for outlaw Julian Assange to be in contact with the son of the US president?

Running talking point seems to be "Trump Jr isn't a criminal because a Clinton aide did something similar with Ukraine." Have to say I'm kind of baffled by the number of people who are going around saying it isn't an issue because they didn't get anything, as if the only source for that wasn't the guy who lied to them five times already.

Trump is going to serve out his 4 years and we 're going to have all these scandals that do nothing because A. Democrats are too poo poo and scared to start anything and B. Republicans will do everything in their power that he stays in. The best we can hope for is he doesn't get re-elected, even that's probably gonna happen though.

I can totally see Assange sending Trump Jr. a message saying he'd be happy to publish the emails in the sense of requesting that Trump Jr. send them to him for publication.

Honest question, because this came up a lot when we were talking about Flynn too and the problem is that there isn't really any strong evidence that anyone higher up the food chain was involved in anything yet. Jared Kushner maybe? It sounds like this may possibly gently caress him, but are people really expecting Trump Jr. to have legitimately incriminating information on his dad?

Oxxidation posted:Reminder that in the late nineties/early oughts Donald Trump's brand was so utterly poisoned, so fraught with bankruptcy and fraud, that no one would lend money to him and he had ever-mounting evidence for an arrest over one of his numerous white-collar crimes, and he still wasn't arrested because he was literally more valuable out of jail than in it. This. This is what people do not get. It's one thing to say "They can't DO THAT!!! It's against the LAW!" But people forget that the ones enforcing the law are the same people who write them. Black guy snatches a purse or smokes a rock? 10-15 years. White bankers rob millions in people's retirement money? Nothing. 5 years in a country club half way house, the firm gets a government bailout and half of those criminals get appointed to the cabinet. The law is only as strong as those enforcing it. Trump is going to get away with everything he's doing unless he really, really fucks with the people who make more money than he does, and even then I'm not so sure.
