Because Donald Trump is not literally shouting "I AM COMMITTING HIGH CRIMES AND MISDEMEANORS" at all times, it means he is not doing them. They honestly believe this.

I mean it's standard Republican deflection on this. Zeldin's complaining "b-b-b-but the house is too busy with these hearings to pass real bills!" ...at a time where the session is in recess because they're currently doing house votes. Yet somehow the Democrats are single-handedly keeping the country locked in stasis. Just ignore all these bills that the house already passed and that McConnell promptly threw into a bin.

Would a reverse Midas be able to specify what they want the gold to turn into? Also you'd need a supply of gold on hgoddamnit don't let me derail this thread.

Speaking of reverse, I wonder if it's doing something to Trump's neurosis that whereas normally he watches TV approving him and parrots what they say, he has to watch TV excoriating him and reading back his tweets in a way he can do nothing about. Is that the kind of break we need for a true narcissistic rage, Prester Jane?

This needs more context but basically the verdict for Roger Stone is coming in

Right now he's guilty on 5 of 7 counts (the 7th of which is WITNESS TAMPERING)
