When someone commits a crime, you call the police. When the President is a criminal, you elect people to Congress to check his power. Yes, there are tons of other things that we need them to do, but he is the single biggest obstacle to any of that. Holding him accountable for his crimes takes primacy over everything

Yep. And he’s not the only one.

You gotta read the whole thing. The one point that has not been made clear in reports and summations of this thing is how much foreign policy stuff Guliani was doing on behalf of Trump. He’s not a government employee. He’s Trump’s personal attorney.  He’s ALL OVER this thing. It’s not just one or two things.

Never underestimate the Democrats (especially these Democrats) ability to screw it all up. The entire deal with the Blue Wave was the public clearly and specifically saying “We’ll elect you because someone has to do something about Trump” and for almost a year now Pelosi and her gang at the top have been like “Thanks

I fry mine in a light cream sauce and serve it up with a economy sized bottle of Kirkland Tequila Blanco.

you can tell he’s desperate to have someone on his side cause he claims it’s an attack on the republican party, not specifically him.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one who thinks he talks like a bad knockoff of 80's mobsters. It’s like this dipshit watched Goodfellas and thought that was how to criminal properly.

Yep.

Exactly. He has the same mindset as the internet trolls who installed him in office— he honestly thinks “I didn’t say the exact words! Therefore, TOTALLY EXONERATED! Nanny nanny poo poo!” will stand up in court, because it works for him and his fans online. He thinks the “technicality” trick will work, he thinks the

It would not shock me for a second if Fox News doesn’t start blaming Hillary Clinton for this at some point today.

I was wondering what could possibly have gotten the Republicans on board with releasing the IG’s report, but it seems clear now: they are hoping to pull a Barr Report thing.

It’s part and parcel of Trump’s standard strategy.

I love that a guy who screams “fake news!” at the drop of a hat is going to be undone by literally believing “fake news.”

Ukrainian president: “about the military aid...”

He thinks he’s innocent because in his mind, he never said “investigate Biden’s son or you’re not getting aid.” This is pretty on brand with Trump; he’s never explicit in what he says, but the people around him know exactly what he means. Then they get to go and do the dirty work for him. So if Guiliani or Barr end up

Swap out the word “woman” with “black”, and you could have placed that exact same paragraph in any discussion about Barack Obama’s “electability” in 2007.

Duh, neither has a penis. They are therefore identical. Any nuanced differences beyond that are willfully impossible by a whole lot of people

And throw in the Rust Belt and the Midwest in as well. I’m sick of these people needing their god damn hands held, or else they threaten to fuck over the entire world because they feel they didn’t get pandered to enough. I live in Texas, Dem candidates only come here to raise money, yet I don’t turn around and throw a

“I like what she had to say, but I still think she’s—sorry—a bitch,” said a 56-year-old Trump supporter. Another added, “Warren won’t be looked upon as a leader because she’ll be presiding over a House and Senate full of men. I’m worried she won’t be taken seriously.”

The idea that people like this are even being interviewed and having their views be taken seriously is so fucking frustrating.  Can we PLEASE stop giving airtime to these morons?  If the main reason that this country goes down in flames is because perfectly fine woman candidates are seen as bitches by the electorate,
