    I agree but that's true for every president and the nature of politics is not everyone is gonna be happy

    In the case of Trump he doesn't see scandal where even some Republicans think he should resign.
    He either willfully and/or sees a lot of these issues as nothing

    And honestly at this point every problem has just been innenudo

    The Russians interference in the election is the biggest story and he still hasn't been connected

    Right, it hasn't been connected. But it's ridiculous to expect definite connection when the investigations haven't concluded.

    We do know that Kushner, Pence, Flynn, Page, Manafort, Sessions, and others from Trump's team all lied about their connections to the Russians or what they were told about the connections to Russia. That doesn't prove that any of these many folks and their meetings were actually illegal. But there is definitely grounds for investigating when all of these people lied about their meetings and what they knew. If they hadn't done anything wrong, why are they acting exactly like people do when they've done something wrong?

    It's strange that all of those folks would be hiding and covering up things when they did nothing wrong. So an investigation into the story behind this activity is merited.

    I don't see anything strange about these people lawyering up when Trump has already been tried convicted and hung in the court of public opinion. Just look at this thread

    It isn't about lawyering up. That is to be expected. That isn't suspicious at all. What is suspicious is that before hiring lawyers they all lied about having the meetings at all, or how many meetings they had, or receiving information about others from the administration's meetings, or being paid by the Russian government. Many of them lied about it on multiple occasions. They did all that before the Congress started any investigations and before they hired lawyers.

    So the question remains and hasn't been answered. Why were all of these Trump folks lying about their meetings?

    This how this **** works. The word "alleged" in the newscasts last less than a half day.

    BTW there would likely not be a special prosecutor if there was not some there there.

    Monkey see, monkey do. Trump lies with impunity, so his minions are just as careless with the truth.

    This video perfectly sums up my feelings of the Trump Presidency so far, with Rosenfels starring as Trump and Matt Schaub's reaction reflecting the majority of U.S. citizens.

    “Trump’s presidency is effectively over.”
    Donald Trump’s Art of the Deal co-author Tony Schwartz is predicting that the president is getting ready to call it quits ― and that the resignation will happen soon.

    He wrote on Twitter Wednesday:

    • The circle is closing at blinding speed. Trump is going to resign and declare victory before Mueller and congress leave him no choice.
    • Trump's presidency is effectively over. Would be amazed if he survives till end of the year. More likely resigns by fall, if not sooner.
    In followup tweets in response to questions, Schwartz predicted Trump would make a deal for immunity in the Russia investigation in exchange for his resignation.

    “The Russia stuff will be huge,” he wrote. “He doesn’t want to go to jail.”

    He also tweeted urging Trump’s opponents to keep up the pressure, and he slammed the president’s elder children.
    • Trump must be isolated. Resistance every day. The end is near but must keep pressure high.
    • Eric & Donald Trump Jr., dumber versions of their father. Ivanka Trump fake human and enabler. They all suffer from Stockholm Syndrom
    Schwartz has been predicting resignation as Trump’s endgame, making similar comments in May, when he said

    “I surely believe that at some point over the next period of time he’s going to have to figure out a way to resign,”

    Does this mean the Trump staffers who Googled "can the president pardon himself" came up with nothing?

    Will it be like this?

    Whether then putting pressure on the presidential approval poll number, I'm ending the office of the presidency. Thanks you all!

    He should have been more careful with his terror descriptions like his predecessor. Bye bye Agent Orange!
