Look, I understand where you are coming from. I was one of those in the 90's who hated the Clintons with a passion. Subscribed to American Spectator, listened to Rush every day, got on Lexis and read all the British newspaper coverage of their misdeeds. Yup, it would be just like Song of the South. We got that b'rer rabbit now. They would always slip away. There would always be choruses of "we got them now". and "we" didn't.
That is one reason I didn't get too worked up over the server scandal. I had been down that road before and knew how it would play out.
Now y'all are making the same mistake the Clinton-haters made. You are falling for not advocacy journalism but hopeful journalism- journalism where the reporter is publishing information he hopes is true. How many stories that were so-called bombshells wound up having a "something else" angle or important facts that were mis represented or just plain not true?
You will wind up getting yourself worked up over and over again, more and more frustrated, and in the end, nothing will have changed.

If the sum total of their campaign in 2020 is going to be "get the madman out of the White House" they are going to have a very rough time.
Honestly it's been 2 years since the campaign for 2016 started in earnest and I would bet my house if I grabbed 10 people at random I would get no better than 3 who could articulate for me what the Democrats want to accomplish.
Meanwhile at least 7 would know what Trump harps on. They might not agree with him but they at least fricking know

I don't like Trump at all, but I've never expected any serious scandals or accusations to stick. In fact, I hope they don't. I would rather just see him straighten up and stop acting like a 15 y/o on Twitter and elsewhere.

The MSM has nothing to do with my dislike of Trump. The MSM could completely flip tomorrow and shill for him 24/7 and my opinion wouldn’t change.
I go by the man’s own words and actions.

Republicans spent 4 years 8 investigations and wasted about $20 million on Benghazi. Time for them to get a taste of their own medicine

I have similar feelings. I don't want to see him go down unless he legitimately did some wrong. It's just really difficult to understand why he continues to act as he does. He's already President. The campaign ended long ago. If he doesn't want to be made out to be a madman, then he needs to start acting professional.
Rain on the downvotes and the LOL responses

He acts like he does because that is what is needed. It's almost like you cucks sleepwalked through the GOPe actions the last 20 years. WTF is wrong with you? Do you really want GWB or John McCain?

You can be a reformer without acting like a 16 year old girl. It's not a binary choice.

Shorty Rob is actually dead on accurate about this.

I strongly dislike Trump yet I do not think much will come of this "collusion" thing.
I think it a mistake for Democrats to pursue it and hope for a big payoff from it, but what else do they have?
Many Liberals in the media think TOO HIGHLY of Conservatives in that they fail to see that many Conservatives don't care if Trump colluded with the Russians, don't care if Trump is racist, don't care if Trump is a religious bigot, don't care if Trump isn't much of a Christian himself, don't care if Trump sexually assaulted women, and don't care if Trump raped his ex-wife as she claims he did. As a result of being in their Liberal bubble, these media Liberals fail to see that for many Conservatives the cutting of taxes, the cutting of government waste, the removal of regulations that inhibit businesses, the address of illegal immigration, and the movement to keep Muslims out of America are ALL THAT MATTERS and nullify any concern over the other stuff.
naive Liberal reporter: "Look! We have irrefutable evidence that Trump called black people the N-word and stated his belief that whites are a superior race!! "
Trump supporter: "yeah, and? Is there a problem with that? And who cares as long as he cuts my taxes?"

I agree with Major Taylor.
I think most people have a problem with some of the stuff Trump has said or done but look at the alternative.

Are you SERIOUSLY attempting to compare the bald faced lie of "it was a spontaneous riot started by a right-wing Christian video" with the mentally diseased Leftist explanation of the American people's choice for president being 'muh Russians'?
On second thought... if you are mentally diseased enough to believe the latter, OF COURSE you would believe the first.

The psychological angst of Progressives has CONSUMED them . It is all- encompassing. While their homes burn they literally think about Trump . It’s a !legitimate mass - hysteria .
Rather than talk them off the ledge - keep tapping them in the chest . Keep them as agitated as possible because nobody discredits Progressivism as thoroughly as Progressives. This is glorious-they are destroying themselves - why try to stop it ? This is the long- anticipated Leftist Crackup . That it is psychological in nature, just makes it more entertaining.

Has nothing to do with the new crop of posters does it?
