LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY DOG

E. Revenant posted:

Anybody thinking Barr had any ability to save Trump from himself when he released the Ukraine readout is missing the nature of Trumps reaction political near-death situations.

Trump has no idea the benefit he got out of Barr de-fanged the Mueller report just before it was about to strike. Trump now believes he was always going to skate through the report unscathed.

Why would he listen to a low energy coward when he can release the "transcript" and prove to all that no document can ever bring harm to Trump.

E: added quote because yet more news broke the conversation flow.

I agree with this 100%. 150% even. He's probably reworked it in his memory so he never needed Barr's help, or that it would have come out even better if he'd not had it.

While I know we're dying of thirst out here, we need to be absolutely clear in that we are not going to get the actual full phone transcripts/recordings a second before they are at least fully declassified and sent to Congress. Grim would be putting himself in the direst of peril if he even intimated that he had access to the records at this point in time (which is what the White House was generally counting on, not realizing that whistleblowers can easily point out the existence of such records and Congresspersons can demand said records at any time, for any reason). It'll be a while before we know more of the Saudi calls beyond second-hand accusations.

your right. I think that the elites sent foils into the democratic party to stop them from actually doing things that help labor so that in essence we have two right wing parties. Rahm emanuel is one of those foils. Basically like they came up with the third way and whatnot.

Yesterday was a busy day, so I had zero time to check the internet and now I catch up on the thread to discover... Turtle told Trump releasing the transcripts was a good idea, and the United States Attorney General may be hiding in another country. Hoo boy.

The Samson of Political Stupidity. When he was finally confronted and threatened, Trump grabbed the supports of the political edifice that supported him and screamed "Noo! I'm the best! Nobody beats me!" as he flailed, bringing the entire machine down upon his own allies in a confused tantrum.
