They're melting hard.

Soon I will begin the bumps of the "we all know he colluded with Russia" threads.

even if Trump did not collude with the Russians, the Russian hacking can not be tolerated. It's frustrating when people
conflate the two issues inappropriately and for their own purposes.

I also think we're entitled to know about all of the President's business ties with Russian interests.

Time will tell.

Maybe then we'll find out why Trump was so aggravated when he found out Mueller was going to be able to get his tax returns.

And why Trump was asking all of his lawyers about whether he could pardon everyone, including himself.

And why the eighth guy in the meeting with Jr. and the Russian lawyer (who not one of the Trump guys would even admit was there) had a background as a money launderer.

It should be interesting. What do you think?

Damn man.

You need to take a personal break from posting. You sound suicidal.
Meh. I went overboard--a little too much bourbon to be posting on the internet.

In fairness, I was trying to respond to any angry email I had recieved from a chiropractor after I had expressed concerns with his claims of treating autism and ADHD and his bashing of mainstream medicine.

So after I realized I probably should hold off on that, I decided to channel my frustration here. Probably should have just gone to bed after requiring a Lyft home instead.

That was a lot of nothing.
Tax returns? Uh russians. As in why?
Don't know why he asked about pardons. Does this need another special prosecutor?
Ask the dems and pubs who heard his testimony.

Doesn't all that look mighty thin to you?

Disingenuous posting will always anger people. Hell. Be honest. That was your goal.
Probably, but it is annoying that people take an OPED by a Republican lobbyist, and act like that represents some prevailing change in opinion when that was probably always close to his own opinion anyways.

I'll just take that answer as you owning your hypocrisy for not calling out the other wapo hack articles.
Not surprising considering you seem to not only believe in the muh Russian collusion, it actually consumes you. I feel bad for people like you.

Where are all these fact check, article author scrutinizers on every other hack article that comes from the NYT/wapo?

Why isn't only called out when it is a "republican" author?

You don't know why he asked about pardons? Really?

Heard Kushner's testimony? Just a parrot saying what he was taught to say. Besides, he left before the good stuff started.

I think I'll just wait to the end of the Mueller show, and then decide.

You know the answer why.

They are full of shite and have a huge double standard regarding anything revolving around Trump

Because it's an OPED, not an actual news article. I'm critical of the consistent misrepresentation of an opinion piece as some sort of prevailing and factual phenomenon.

Those threads are usually almost universally criticized and down voted into oblivion, often rightfully so. I don't typically waste my time because everybody else has already called it out, but would you prefer that I pile on?

It was an opinion piece. There is nothing to "call out".

I was just letting you know who the author was so you wouldn't make the mistake that several people on here made by saying that the WaPo was conceding that there was no need to continue looking in the Russian collusion angle.
