I am sorry you don’t understand intelligent strategy and make ridiculous nonsensical arguments (holy shit you are embarrassing and can barely read, like please stop.). Franken should refuse to resign until Moore does. Franken has the power to do that.

Franken should offer to resign if Moore does. It is only fair. Franken made a bad, offensive pic, Moore molested several underage women. So, even.

You have a strong opinion. You might want to think about bolstering that opinion with some facts. For example, from Ruth Marcus’ oped in the Washington Post today:

“No one has ever been prosecuted under the Logan Act in over two hundred years. It’s widely assumed by everyone that it’s unconstitutional which is why it’s never been used.”

Do you want more...

Just responding in kind to the original comment:

Sure. He can be fired for no cause at all. But he can’t be fired to stop an investigation into the Trump campaign’s possibly illegal acts. That’s called obstruction of justice.

Yes and not yes. “Talking to Russia” is only one element of the charged offense. The text of 18 U.S.C. 953 involves (1) talking, (2) with the intent to influence, and (3) without authority of the United States. There are others, but that’s the meat. (Statutory language below)

Which is why they are not getting done up on the Logan Act but on all the other stuff they did in the wake. If they had actually told the truth, registered as foreign agents, not laundered money, and just played it cool this would have gone away. They did violate the Logan Act by trying to stop retaliation to…

Actually it is a crime when it directly subverts an ongoing investigation. It’s called obstruction of justice. That’s why Nixon lost his job.

That’s not how it works, Obama was not negotiating on behalf of a government. Nice try though. (BTW the things they’re getting screwed on are not the Logan Act, that triggered the investigation, what they are getting screwed on are lying to the FBI, Fraud, Illegally working as a Foreign Agent, Obstruction of Justice…

I suggest you look up the Logan Act, until they are in office they are not allowed to negotiate, by their own admission they discussed sanctions which means negotiating. The problem is compounded by actually lying about it. So yeah, it is a crime and it’s a further crime to pretend it didn’t happen. I suggest you…

Muffin.

I’m assuming you’re a troll. But it case you’re not, let me tell youas a foreigner—your president is a joke, and we all laugh at him and anyone dumb enough to think he is competent. You are literally a joke the world over.

trump is a snake , hes poison to my country . He’s gotta go or shits going to get worse . he’s destroying America

To give credit where credit’s due, at least he did not spell it “morans”. I have seen an awful lot of those from right-wingers in recent months. That’s about as high as the bar can be set, I’m afraid.

classic whataboutism

what’s also unusual is coordinating so clearly with a country so in the targets. it is weird! and flynn was taking russian money under the radar. it’s all weird!

Yes...that is a really interesting question. Why did Flynn lie. Especially when he knew his every word was being monitored? Why is the entire administration lying about their interactions with the Russians. Why are they, as a group, attempting to subvert this investigation?

Elected but yet sworn in. Not president until he takes the oath, ya dumbfuck. Obama was still Pres. None of these players had their jobs yet. Now holster the capgun cowboy because thinking and logic aren’t your strengths.

Talking to foreign leaders is one thing. Subverting the policy of the current administration is another.
