The Right Side of the News

Yeah and I'm sure he'll drag it out until he can manufacture something that looks plausible enough to confuse enough people to pretend it's significant.

I think Pinocchio means a little more than that, a cautionary tale of redemption and all that, but I provided the link where the icons are explained. If you don't like them then say things that are true. More significantly, you seem unable to muster any rebuttal, or to offer any support for your own views. You just believe what you believe, and rational fact-based thinking be damned. Congratulations on contributing a factless insult laden mess to your thread.--Percy

The email from Corsi again was:

quote:

---

Word is friend in embassy plans 2 more dumps. One shortly after I'm back. 2nd in Oct. Impact planned to be very damaging.

Unless you're claiming clairvoyance or ESP, that single email by itself shows he was lying, but there's more. Briefly summarizing, the publicly available information we have so far is that after Stone requested that Corsi query Assange, Corsi then recruited Ted Malloch in London to visit the Ecuadorian embassy and speak with Assange. The FBI served Malloch with a subpoena to appear for questioning before Robert Mueller, and with a warrant for his phone. It doesn't matter that Corsi denies everything publicly because Mueller evidently already has everything he needs. One of the articles that covers all this is Mueller has emails from Stone pal Corsi about WikiLeaks Dem email dump.--PercyEdited by Percy, : Grammar.

It’s funny how someone who rails against lying character assassination should consider Jerome Swift Boat Corsi a trustworthy source.

Let me guess that when anonymous sources spoke about the Obama administration that you believed them, but that when anonymous sources speak about the Trump administration that you don't. Inconsistent much?Even without anonymous sources the Trump administration is obviously in chaos. Tillerson called him a "moron," and later someone undisciplined who doesn't read, including briefing papers, and doesn't take advice. John Kelly called the Trump White House "crazytown" and Trump "an idiot" and "unhinged. Plus we know Trump rankles under any kind of control. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and former Chief of Staff Reince Priebus both called Trump an idiot. Former economic adviser Gary Cohn said Trump was "dumb as shit." Former national security adviser H. R. McMaster called Trump a "dope" and an "idiot." Seven Bannon said he was "like an 11-year-old child." In 2016 Mick Mulvaney said, "Yes, I am supporting Donald Trump, but I'm doing so despite the fact that I think he's a terrible human being" (he thought Hillary just as bad). In 2015 Senator Lindsey Graham called Trump a "race-baiting xenophobic bigot." Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said Trump had the understanding of "a fifth- or sixth-grader." Of course chaos is emerging from this administration. I think more and more of Trump's attention is being consumed by efforts to protect himself from impeachment, or down the road prosecution. Trump doesn't need help from anyone of the left, right or anywhere else to destroy his presidency - he's doing a fine job all by himself.--PercyEdited by Percy, : Typo.Edited by Percy, : Typo.

You call everyone you disagree with leftist. You are not defending Republicanism or conservativism - you're defending Trump, who is neither Republican nor conservative. His positions are a mix of his own random impulses.I am an independent who finds much to admire in both the liberal and conservative positions. There is little truly conservative in Trump's positions, and little to admire in them. Does the illogic in this need to be described? When did rationality depart your mortal soul? Something you couldn't possibly know. An allegation without substance or support. You apparently wackily think all those who lied about talking to the Russians did it because everything was aboveboard. It is not a fact that the mistress payoffs were related to the campaign. What is a fact is that Cohen, Pecker and likely Weisselberg have said the payoffs were related to the campaign. That doesn't make it a fact that the payoffs were related to the campaign, but it is strong evidence, something your position lacks in spades. You're hiding your head in the sand.--PercyEdited by Percy, : Grammar.

Pinocchio, a picture of Pinocchio with growing nose, means liar. Period. Untrue. Don't think I've claimed to. In any case it's irrelevant. Leftist is leftist. Not interested in the labels. Yes I am defending Trump, because like others on the Right I like his policies. Trump has been boldly speaking for what we on the Right care most about since he first opened his mouth in the campaign. He didn't talk like a politician and we like that. He said what we think and we like that. The more he is opposed on irrelevant side issues the more we like him and hate his opposition.

That's not Trump in chaos, that's his unhinged opposition always in meltdown mode trying to bring him down.

Other ways to interpret that email than that.

There was no collusion with Russia.Anyone should know that by now, it doesn't take special powers of understanding.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

I suspect Limbaugh was talking about a different incident but I'll have to wait and see. If there was an earlier incident that would blow the whole campaign thing to bits anyway.

boy how stupid is the guy who hired these unhinged opponents as the secretary of state and white house chief of staff.

And as Faith has spoken so shall it be... except not. Because criminal investigations take time and don't end just because some snowflake thinks that they have gone on too long.

Really really wondering what is going to happen tomorrow when we hear from Judge Sullivan (?) about how Flynn was treated by the FBI. I hope the judge is one of the sane ones.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

-This discussion got started on the Offense thread but it really belongs here:Examples of how the Democrats once sounded a lot like Trump on the subject of needing better defenses against illegal immigration.Here's Bill ClintonAnd ObamaAnd others.
