There are those who say the same thing about Trump.

Hahaha - the Wikileak emails quote her top staff saying she is her own worst enemy and her ideas suck. Terrible Instincts.

Quote is from BBC, clearly worse than FREEP http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-37639370






AWKWARD

I am still not convinced who was the worst candidate

Valid or not, it's still a whataboutism. WDMSO scoffs at what others consider valid comparisons and calls them whataboutisms. I like to remind him of his hypocrisy.

The difference, so far, is the "under oath" bit. It wasn't about the tryst, it was about lying under oath. I don't know if Trump has even reached that far yet.

Here's the thing for me, it is not about the character of either one. It is about which one would be the better or worse regarding the nature of how we are governed. About the character of the system of government we have. About whether we live in a constitutional republic, or under an unassailable administrative state.

A republic, under our Constitution, can survive bad characters. It has already done that several times. Bad characters don't go away. And the power hungry ones drift into politics. A strong system of checks and balances protects our freedom from their usurpation of it.

And no matter how "good" the character of a politician is, if he or she is about instilling a system of governance in which those who are "good," in their own estimation, have the power to direct and control our lives because they know better than us, I don't want them near the levers of power.

I have always thought Lewinski was a plant or at the very least paid to get that spunk on her dress. Who in their right mind would archive something like that and not clean it? A momento ?

They pop up now and then. It's up to the recipient of the plant to say yes or no. Neither choice is easy but the yes has potential consequences.

If it didn't reveal much, how could it have changed the course of the election?

Talk about wanting to have it both ways! According to your side, she did nothing wrong, but revealing what she did, helped turn the election to Trump.

It showed that she worked with the DNC to cut Sanders' legs off, and that she got debate questions ahead of time, among other things.

You can debate who is the more disgusting person. In terms of running the country? No comparison. Neil Gorsich in the Supreme Court, stock market up, wages up, unemployment down. Major tax reform that will let people keep more of their money, as opposed to Obama, who passed a trillion dollar stimulus bill that did nothing that I can see.

So true.

What I find confusing ...
It is said the John jr. willingness to take a meeting with the Russian Lawyer to get dirt on Hillary is characterized as collusion.
But the hiring of GPS and Steele to get dirt on Trump from the Russians is not.
Is it not the same? Does twice removed change it.....
Isn’t Steele a foreign national.....

Nobody coordinated with Steele, he was just a consultant and had no idea who was sourcing the information. Quite different from Don Jr who appears to have known exactly what he was doing.

Steele would not be shaking trees in Russia without knowing who was paying the expense check.

The proper rebuttal would have been there is little similarity between campaign people making and acting on arrangements in a quid pro quo with a foreign power (which is what still needs to be proven) to actively influence an election versus opposition research.

There is plenty of smoke around Clinton (and CGI) to be concerned of payments for policy. Clinton hands are rarely ever clean.

Steele was a hired consultant by Fusion GPS to do research. It's supposed to be a very credible firm, I'd think they have strict policies in place to specifically prevent him from knowing.

As for Clinton and payments for policy. I haven't seen anything other than crack conspiracy theories.

I'd like to see the Fusion GPS folks testify publicly for the Senate committee.

Well, they did in private and have asked for the full transcripts to be released.

just more of the same... Republicans demanding proof and evidence
against Trump ...

however Republicans do not demanding proof or evidence against a democrat or any investigation or hearing they lead ... the love painting an Impressionism portrait 1st.. then try to get the pieces to fit

why is that ?



why are they trying to discredit Muller at every turn? if they support MAGA

isn't that what Donald Jr was trying to do.. but via the Russians

and you support the release of stolen information because you like the content ?

Talk about wanting it both ways

I am aware. I don’t know if Grassley will release them however

good question from Andy McCarthy

"If Simpson and Fritsch have evidence of criminal or otherwise corrupt Trump-Russia contacts, why don’t they just tell us what it is. Why do they write a lengthy NY Times column caterwauling about how the Republican-controlled committees are supposedly withholding the information they’ve provided? We are not talking about classified information here; we are talking about Fusion’s own investigation. They say the Republicans refuse to release their testimony. Why wait for the Republicans? There’s nothing stopping Simpson and Fritsch from fully disclosing what their testimony was. Why don’t they tell the story instead of complaining about its not being told? Could it be that the story is not what they purport it to be?"

Sure, if you are doing research on Denmark or Uruguay. Someone that is smart and greatly experienced former member of a FiveEyes country (and wants to live a long life) does not conduct research on Ruissia without knowing who is paying.

Sounds like you're solidifying the credibility of his research.

Republicans urge investigation into Trump dossier author
http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-42586855


The Steele dossier - which became public in January 2017 - was drawn together after an investigation funded by Republicans trying to block Mr Trump from becoming the party's presidential candidate.

funny how this has been left out here ?

but the part below hasn't

Democrats then took over funding the investigation after he was nominated.

Clinton Foundation investigated by Justice Departmenthttp://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-42579732

The Attorney General and FBI will reportedly investigate claims Hillary Clinton engaged in so-called "pay-to-play" politics for donations.

Mrs Clinton's spokesman on Friday labelled the inquiry a "sham".

He said Attorney General Jeff Sessions was doing President Trump's bidding to distract from the Russia probe.


^^^^^painting an Impressionism portrait 1st.. then try to get the pieces to fit .... as if i had a Crystal ball :rotflmao:

I am reasonably confident some is legit, other parts sensationalized, wrapped in parts that are pure disinformation.

Some people say the guy is good, some folks say he is a sky is falling.

Steele says it's 70-90% accurate. Hell, even at 30% it's pretty damning.

The Fusion GPS leadership spent 21 hours before congress and claim they ripped the conspiracy theories to shreds. They are demanding congress release the full transcripts.

This obstruction of justice case seems to have engulfed most of the GOP.

It's my understanding that parts of it have been confirmed and that nothing has been disapproved.

And on a related note I learned today that President Trump is a "stable genius".
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

Perhaps that's why he seems to have so much disdain for the rule of law? He's too smart and stable for it.

I'm going to give him props for keeping me safe when I'm flying.
