The Right Side of the News

Sorry, but we are going to need more than your say-so.

Trump made no such qualifications. If Mexico is going to pay for it in the end, then lets wait for Mexico to come up with the money. That's what Trump promised. As if that matters. All they had on Clinton was him lying about one affair. That's it. The Republicans thought that was enough to go against the votes of the entire country and impeach Clinton. If you can't see how this negates your entire argument, then you are truly blind.

Then why in the world would Cohen plead guilty to something that isn't a crime, and why would he be facing jail time for something that wasn't a crime?You seem to be assuming that everything the Right-wing media is telling you is true. Perhaps you should stop and think about that for a moment.

Just more evidence of you not knowing what the truth or facts are.

I tend to agree with Comey on all of this. Let Mueller finish his work and hand in his report. Then, in 2020, let the people decide if Trump should be in office. He already lost the last election by 3 million popular votes, and I don't see how he will do any better in 2020. Of course, the Dems are really good at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, but hopefully they get their senses together and nominate a half-way decent candidate.Edited by Taq, : No reason given.

Sherrod Brown comes to mind. I suspect that there are Dem governors that could fit the bill, and they won't have the stink of Congress on them. There are plenty of safe bets, and a superstar might emerge at some point. I don't think it is Beto's time just yet, but it might be in the future.

It doesn't make sense for the Dems to impeach Trump, at least from a political standpoint. Running against Trump in 2020 is a gift with a giant bow on top.

I could care less how Trump gets the money from Mexico. What he needs to do is get the actual money from Mexico, and then we can talk about building his wall. What the American public doesn't want is to waste our own money on Trump's Folley.

No one has shown the dossier to be fake. In fact, some of what it details was later found to be true. Just because Hillary paid for it does not make it fake. Hillary paid for REAL information, not fake information. If Hillary wanted fake information they could have sat around a table for a few hours and made it all up which would have saved millions of dollars.Edited by Taq, : No reason given.

What damage are you talking about?

Who? You are good at swallowing Right wing propaganda whole. That's about it. Christopher Steele still stands by the dossier, as does Fusion GPS which is the firm the Clinton campaign hired to do the investigation. This is no different than hiring a private investigator.Your Right wing talk radio nutjobs are simply making that argument that since Hillary paid for it that must mean it is fake. That is all they are going on.Edited by Taq, : No reason given.

Any examples? These are just vague allegations with no specifics.

You haven't offered a shred of evidence that it is a fake. This is just more Right Wing propaganda and lies.

Having worked in a government job, I can tell you how the shutdown affected my area of work. The research group I was a part of had submitted a rather large grant which had actually been approved for funding, and then the shutdown hit. This threw all funding up in the air, and the grant had to be resubmitted. It wasn't funded until nearly 2 years later, and people almost lost their jobs in the meantime, including me. I also saw job positions that used to take 2 months to be filled take 18 months to get filled because funding in different government offices was all haywire because of the shutdown and because of the sequester that followed.The government is a massive behemoth of a system, and any little funding hiccup can have serious ramifications. It isn't as simple as everyone taking a few days off.Edited by Taq, : No reason given.

Corrupt use of campaign finances is a pretty big deal in the US. Trump is not be singled out, not by a long shot. There is a congressman that is currently under indictment on campaign finance violations:Duncan Hunter and his wife indicted for using campaign funds for personal expenses | CNN PoliticsIn past presidential elections there have been similar indictments, such as John Edwards being indicted for possible violations when some friends paid to hide his extra-marital affair during his campaign.Also, Trump isn't in potential trouble because he lied to the American people when asked questions by the press. Trump is in potential trouble for violating the laws which require reporting of campaign contributions, and corrupt intent plays a large role in how those violations are penalized. The point of having laws for clean and transparent elections is that we shouldn't have to speculate.Edited by Taq, : No reason given.
