#FakeNews

There is nothing illegal about talking with Russia, there is nothing illegal about colluding with the Russians.

Flynn is in trouble for lying under oath, not talking to Russia.

Just curious @accadacca... what do you hope to gain with this Russian unicorn? Even if Trump is found guilty of something he will never be impeached (See Bill Clinton lying under oath about playing nasty with Lewinsky).

And back in the real news....

It looks like Trump is going to get his tax cut. With stocks booming, the economy catching fire and a tax cut in his pocket Trump is going to continue to be a dominating force.

Just remember I've been predicting for over a year that the 2018 election is going to be a blood bath in the Senate for Democrats.

Depends on what the colluding was about...

If Russian hackers illegally hacked into email servers, for example, and had dirt...and the Trump team either sponsored that hacking or took advantage of that...wouldn't that be illegal?

Kinda like buying a car you know is stolen. Trump bought an election he knew was stolen.

Funny...folks stick a fork in Hillary for "selling US uranium to Russia" (which is fake news) but they give the Trump team a pass for their super shady dealings with Russia? Crazy.

Amazing the number of ties to Russa Trump has.

Painting of DaVinci that just sold for nearly a half a billion? The seller has huge (huuuge) ties with Trump.

Its just strange. Flynn gets let go by the Obama folk. Gets a paid junket by Russia to Russia. Hires on with the Trump team. Post election...he's chattin' with the Russians. Obama boots the Russians and implements sanctions. Flynn's back chattin' with the Russians and the Trump folks. Trump tweets how smart Putin is. That's...just...f'n crazy.

And folks are ok with all that?

Trump is Putin's bitch, bought and paid for, many times over.

And...that's ok, 'cause, Trump is your guy?

Just...wow.

Brian, you are missing my point.

If the Trump organization did something illegal they will find someone besides The Donald to fall on the sword (see Clinton playbook, page 1).

If Trump is discovered lying under oath nothing will come of it so long as the GOP controls the house or Senate. (see Clinton playbook, page 2).

If this investigation starts getting to close to Trump the story will be spun into a complicated labyrinth of smoke and mirrors along will legal entanglements that will never be unravelled until long after Trump is dead. (see Clinton playbook, page 3).

This has nothing to do with Trump being your guy or not. It has to do with understanding how things actually work in the real world and not a utopia .

As for my personal view it has nothing to do with being Republican or Democrat, because I consider the whole lot of them to be some of the most corrupt people on the planet. YMMV

[oldno7]

after the election I'll have more flexibility

Russian collusion uncovered?!?

It appears president elect Trump might have attempted to get the Russians to postpone the December 2016 UN resolution involving Israel until after he took office.

If true... half the country will want to impeach Trump... The other half will want to give him a medal...

#FakeNews makes headlines... again...

I believe Dirk said this recently.... The current state of politics is that it's an echo chamber. People are going to get the message they're looking for.

#fakenews is weakest and most troubling argument I've seen in my adult lifetime. A free press is written into the Bill of Rights and I have little respect for anyone that jumps on that bandwagon. That goes for those students in Berkeley that dis-invites a guest that doesn't meet their "Group-Think" standards. Totally embarrassing considering the University's past.

Air Force One arrives this morning in Salt Lake City.

11:45 a.m. Trump tours Welfare Square.

12:40 p.m. Trump speaks at the state Capitol.

1:35 p.m. Trump departs from the Roland R. Wright Air National Guard Base.

^^^You'd think his itinerary would be less transparent in the interest of security.

I was downtown for a Regan visit and the one thing I noticed is they do NOT drive the roads you would expect. Look at a map and plot the route you would take and then know they will not be driving on any of those roads.

Protesters are lining the streets!

[rockgremlin]

Protesters are lining the streets!

I've never understood this behavior. What....do people think that if they protest loud enough Trump will just forget everything change his plans?

"What?! They're protesting?! Well, turn this limo around. I guess we're going back to Washington..."


Besides, are all liberals just unemployed or something? There's plenty of causes I'd like to march around the streets protesting, but I've got a job. Aint got time for that shit.

And more protestors:

Damn.... when I single I had house parties with larger crowds then that.

The one thing they did get correct is.... "This is what democracy looks like". To quote Barack Obama "Elections have consequences".

[tallsteve]

...and, if they dislike Trump so much, wouldn't they want him to get out of the State as fast as possible? Seems like all they did was keep him in the State longer by slowing down his departure a tad.
