Detournement Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 7 hours ago, welshbairn said: If meeting a Kremlin lawyer in Trump Tower to discuss dropping sanctions on Russia in exchange for dirt on Clinton, followed by a leak of stolen emails, wasn't enough, it was always clear that it would be money stuff that would hurt him, much of which is either progressing in the courts or still under investigation. So far his Campaign Chairman (convicted) gave election research data to a Russia linked Ukrainian, his National Security Advisor (convicted) and others persuaded the GOP to drop stuff about aiding Ukraine against Russia with advanced weaponry in the Convention in Cleveland, and later discussed dropping sanctions with the Russian Ambassador when Obama had just imposed them, all without informing anyone in Government. And his personal lawyer (convicted) was in contact with the Kremlin during the campaign to do with something Trump lied about. Merited investigation imo. Cohen sent two emails and made one phone call to the Kremlin about a hotel that was never given planning permission. Manafort gave someone polling data which is in no illegal. The Trump Tower meeting has been established as a set up to frame Don Jr. The head of Fusion GPS (working for the Clinton campaign at the time) told Congress he was with the Russians involved before and after they left the tower. That revelation didn't get much press coverage tho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 The investigation into his inauguration committee, their fundraising and spending, will be interesting. I assume it will be easier to follow the money trail there than it would have been to prove collusion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH I couldn't watch him on whatever cable channel he used to be on, why are they all so shouty? Even in the early morning over there they just rant at you, it's unbearable, Fox, MSNBC or CNN. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 You don't hear much of Glenn Beck these days do you. They did a segment on him in the most recent Chapo Trap House podcast but it's strange to think how much he has faded away as other, somehow even more batshit people have come to the fore. I know it's inevitable that people will be most strongly identified with specific historical moments in time but his does seem very short in retrospect. Wonder who his current analogue is in terms of being a hysterical reaction to the incumbent president - probably Eric Garland or something.As an aside that play of his they covered is a Freudian dream isn’t it? I remember him ranting about My Chemical Romance and Glee pushing environmentalist propaganda on kids and being a big fan of Muse because “they get it!” back in the day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 He is quite anti Trump himself us he not? He was but apparently he’s now on the “Democrats winning in 2020 would be the end of the republic” train. Chapo were speculating that he was anti-Trump cause Trump, in his opinion, stole his grift. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
