    He's just trolling. He's showing up just to gloat over his long sought tax swindle.

    Maybe he favors Two Scoops for all the race baiting, but mostly it's just about crushing the poors and libs for him.

    When I reader TraderJorge's post I imagine him as Ignatius J. Rielly. It's funnier that way.

    Does it not occur to any of you that perhaps your theory may be wrong, when literally no one can offer up a shred of evidence of collusion between the Trump campaign and "Russia"? I see a lot of name calling here, but no one has offered up anything. At what point do you have to produce evidence. I believe it was the late, great, Andy Moon who once coined the phrase, "put up or shut up". It's that time.

    The fact that you have a huge conflict of interest with former FBI head Mueller leading an investigation that was launched by the misdeeds of the FBI (funding the Trump dossier, creating this false narrative to boost Hillary's candidacy, and then openly conspiring to overthrow our democratically elected president by implementing the Insurance Policy)... and you STILL can't gin up a single shred of evidence, is very telling. This sham of an investigation has run its course. The true collusion, with actual facts supporting it, was the Obama Administration spying on Trump, the FBI/CIA/DOJ colluding to push the false Russia narrative, and the FBI colluding to clear Hillary from multiple felonies. Those things all have factual support. The hysterical screams of Trump's fake collusion with Russia simply do not.

    GOOD DAY

    Can't win an argument on the merits? Toss out the race card! Toss out the class warfare card! Debate will stop and you can claim victory! Sorry, but that is soooo 2016.

    You used to be a worthy adversary, Sizzle Chest. I have far surpassed your level of intelligence -- lapped you in fact.

    GOOD DAY

    This pretty much sums up why no one here takes you seriously. Sad.

    Donald Junior, Paul Manafort, and Jared Kushner meeting with a Russian cutout in Trump Tower to get Russian collected dirt on Hillary should be all the facts one needs to think that there is reasonable chance crimes were committed.

    And yet you throw out the “FBI working to elect Hillary” canard.

    False. That was a 20 minute meeting, a throwaway. It was an unsolicited approach by the other side. It led to nothing. Is this the best you've got? This is the huge collusion that swung the election and deprived Hillary of being President? All those people in Michigan and Wisconsin and Florida were duped into voting Trump because of this Russian act! Totally absurd. You are shameless for even proposing this.

    I notice that you left an out for yourself ..."to think there is a reasonable chance crimes were committed". There were no crimes committed and you know that -- this is just more innuendo and guilt by accusation. The meeting led to nothing -- that has been openly vetted (due to the info being illegally leaked -- probably by Adam Schiff, a real dishonest piece of trash on par with the likes of Harry Reid -- also a player in this saga -- more on that later).

    This is a year's worth of dishonesty and true collusion that has been thrust open the American public by the media, the Obama Administration, the Hillary campaign, and the liberal former heads of the intelligence agencies. They have sacrificed these institutions to politicize and weaponize them for their partisan objectives. They have dropped all integrity to "resist" and in so doing have diminished the power and integrity of these once proud agencies. It's the largest political crime ever committed -- the accusers are guilty of far worse than the false accusations they have made. And soon it will come to light.

    GOOD DAY

    Good question... when did the republican party become the party that allows (empowers?) Russians to attack the very core of American politics?

    Clearly you are lost in the woods.

    Conspiracy. It’s a word. Look it up. Become momentarily enlightened. Or not.

    Meanwhile, Russia is still up to its tricks since Trump and the GOP have done nothing. Sad how partisanship has turned Americans into traitors of the country.

    Traitor Jorge, by extension the Fixed News Network, needs to stop w the contradictions

    Parroting Fixed News' claim, before the 4 convictions

    Parroting Fixed News' back-pedaling, after the 4 convictions and 2 guilty pleads
    only to top it off w this gem
    [​IMG] just the facts.

    it led to Trump dictating a false statement which said the meeting was about adoption, [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
    when in fact, it was about US sanctions against Russia and specific Russian oligarhs​

    mainstream media pounced on this false narrative.

    which led to Fox News talking head spinning this

    but it is unpatriotic, aiding / abetting an enemy​

    When it increases their chance of winning.

    If that means stepping on democracy, constitution, basic decency, basic moral, human lives... so be it.

    FBI, CIA, NSA, etc

    They're the ones protecting us and uncovering terrorist plots in San Fransisco and St Petersburg.

    They are part of a multi agency team that determined RUSSIA was involved in cyberattacks during the 2016 US election

    I will wait for the outcome of the investigation by the investigators.

    ^^


    A year later, The oddest thing to me is still that Comrade Putin only aligns himself with other comrades of the leftist kind. In fact, Comrade Putin in Venezuela was basically being canonized into sainthood by Comrade Maduro just last week. More on the relationship between those 2 crazy kids:
    https://www.reuters.com/article/us-venezuela-russia-maduro/venezuelas-maduro-thanks-putin-for-support-in-difficult-times-idUSKBN1C922H.
    Putin has even given 'financial aid' to Venezuela. Big heart by putin, no? the biggest! the best! what a sweetheart.

    I align my self as a catholic with liberation theology and democratic socialist leanings but I can see through a bullsh*ter, which is why I never liked Comrade Chavez even worse a guy like maduro. Donald is cut from the same cloth, just a better golfer and more expensive attire.

    My president has been trying to be besties with Comrade Putin so hard. Why? and the Trump republicans look the other way, but are the first to point at Venezuela. Comrade Putin is not going to get in bed with anyone expecting Nothing in return. That's not how he operates.

    In the words of Dubya, "That's some weird sh*t". Ironically when Obama was sworn in the usual suspects around here feared this is where the U.S was going to go. From the the usage of 'fake news', to discrediting government agencies because they dare investigate, we're a mid2000s economic crisis away from resembling what Republicans feared. Maybe Comrade Putin can save us too.

    Because nothing screams plausible incompetence like ...

    Trump, putting his word up against anyone's.

    President Trump’s legal team plans to cast former national security adviser Michael T. Flynn as a liar seeking to protect himself if he accuses the president or his senior aides of any wrongdoing, according to three people familiar with the strategy.

    The approach would mark a sharp break from Trump’s previously sympathetic posture toward Flynn, whom he called a “wonderful man” when Flynn was ousted from the White House in February. Earlier this month, the president did not rule out a possible pardon for Flynn, who is cooperating with special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

    Attorneys for Trump and his top advisers have privately expressed confidence that Flynn does not have any evidence that could implicate the president or his White House team. But since Flynn’s cooperation agreement with prosecutors was made public earlier this month, the administration has been strategizing how to neutralize him in case the former national security adviser does make any claims.
