Stunning CNN Graphic Captures the Full Scope of Investigations Into President Trump

[left-of-center2012]

CNN aired a stunning graphic Saturday morning that demonstrated the extent of the investigations into President Donald Trump‘s orbit.



The CNN graphic could have been inspired by this equally stunning tweet from former Nixon White House counsel John Dean, who wrote that Trump’s scandals are “much more damning than Watergate,” and “just getting started.”

1. The man is a walking Criminal Enterprise ... Entitled to do whatever he wanted since Birth by $$$

He assumed he would just keep getting away with doing criminal shit ... forever.

Hell, as POTUS, he could get away with EVEN MORE shit, I'm sure he imagined.

Got a feeling ... it's not going to work out that way.

[erronis]

4. I think you can put +/- signs in front of those $$$. He bulled his way through

based on what he said he had (+$$$) and how much he was in debt (-$$$).

The poor suckers that took the crooks word that "they'd get theirs, in time" are still on the hook and are thus unable to fight him.

Of course, if you consider his indebtedness to putine and kochs, etc., even offering his dear Ivanka won't be enough to pay the bill. Besides, Ivanka is probably not their type.

[mr_lebowski]

8. Oh, he definitely 'got a shit ton of ca$h' from Pappy ... and had a silver spoon

the whole time he grew up ... both of which made him feel highly entitled.

That much we know.

But during the time in the interim since, as you suggest ... yeah ... things changed drastically.

Everyone who's anyone (and who's not a knuckle-dragging, dipshit cultist) long ago figured out Trump was an incompetent, lazy, lying cheat.

On top that, he's shown the world he's an all-around SHIT businessman, who's funded ridiculous, failing enterprises his entire life, wherein the goal of each was to feed his outrageously inflated ego by plastering his pathetic 'Name' across as many cheesy products and edifices as he possibly could.

Let's check the record: Steaks! Vodka! Airlines! Casinos! University! ALL FAILURES AND SCAMS. Many of his golf courses are money pits. And even though they hire ILLEGALS, they still can't make any real money ... unless it's coming from people looking to bribe him. They're all tax-writeoffs, and means by which to launder Russian oligarch money.

[erronis]

13. And the USofA is the latest "enterprise" that Dump wants to "own".

Let's hope he isn't as successful in running this enterprise into the ground as he has done every other time.

And his daddy isn't there to bail him out anymore. Unless daddy == putin, and I think tough love is finally coming dumpie's way.

[UpInArms]

2. As a normal (if you can call him that) citizen, he had the freedom of speech to spout his lies and

To grab them by the 🐈 ...

As a candidate, he was supposed to be vetted by his party (they failed) ... as one who has taken an oath of office, he has left himself wide open ...

And he has waaaay too many illegal skeletons to be comfortable

[Botany]

3. John Dean, who wrote that Trump's scandals are "much more damning than Watergate,"

lock 'em up

[iluvtennis]

5. He will regret the day he ever decided to run for president. He could still be gloating in his

world of being a corrupt business man, but his ego got in the way.

[flibbitygiblets]

9. Or maybe the perfect trifecta of ego, debt and kompromat

Putin is good at using these things to his advantage. Donald and his brood of dumbass children still probably don't realize how thoroughly they've been pwned.

[Blue_true]

12. He has cheated all his life. He thought that he could do the same running for office. nt

[Initech]

6. But let's blame everything on Hillary Clinton because reasons.

[apcalc]

11. +1000

[iluvtennis]

19. +1000 and her running a bad campaign. So tired of that BS.

[dalton99a]

7. The career criminal's reign of terror will soon come to an end.

[Blue_true]

10. That criminal fool is lucky that his gold toilets have not been slapped with summons to appear. nt

[erronis]

14. The imagry is gross. Maybe the toilets have been wearing hidden wires and cameras.

[Blue_true]

15. Maybe. But pity the FBI people that have to sort that one out. nt

[Kajun Gal]

16. The dude and his family are going down. He's gonna wish he never ran for president.

[The Wizard]

17. He's a mob boss

with neither the morals nor ethics of the Mafia.

[jmowreader]

25. Nor the brains

[Mr. Quackers]

34. He's an "empty suit" a wannabe gangster

Calling him a mob boss is an insult to mob bosses everywhere.

[calimary]

44. Welcome to DU, Mr. Quackers!

Sure had that feel, from the very beginning, didn't it. That whole "family business" thing. Uh-huh. Don donald.

[Mr. Quackers]

48. Thank you

Robert DeNiro was correct in his assessment of assclown Trump. He's just a garden variety bully.

[Kablooie]

18. I'll bet he thought once he became president...

He could skim cash off everything without any worry.
He would be the president after all so could do whatever he wanted.
It would be like a candy store for Trump.

Hasn't quite worked out that way.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

30. he's ignorant enough and stupid enough to believe that, too

He's always been an entitled failure. The only thing he's been good at is being a parasite.

[Sneederbunk]

20. Didn't expect to win. Like The Producers he was doomed by success.

[SCVDem]

21. Trump deserves the full Saddaam!

Treason deserves no less!

[DallasNE]

22. The Trump Scandals (That We Know About)

Dwarf Teapot Dome, Watergate and Iran-Contra combined.

[HumblePi]

23. The full Saddam

The full Muammar Gaddafi would be my preference, either that or Mussolini. Either would be fine with me.

[calimary]

45. Welcome to DU, HumblePi!

Six big ones already. And these are just the ones we know about.

[NoMoreRepugs]

24. Buying stock in popcorn and popcorn poppers.

The next 12 to 18 months are going to be AWESOME.

[Bucky]

50. Except for the part where no problems are being solved

I mean, we still need a government. And we still don't have one it's doing any serious work

[Irishxs]

26. Also on Lawrence O'Donnel show

Same story of six investigations in circles around trump.

[scarytomcat]

27. everything he has touched is under investigation

follow the money

[SayItLoud]

28. Like #resist formed #NODEALS must emerge! nt

[Sloumeau]

29. Nixon was an amateur. :)

[calimary]

46. Welcome to DU, Sloumeau!

This CONman we have in there now makes Nixon look like a kindergarten teacher.

[zentrum]

31. Hilariously tragic.

[panfluteman]

32. Oh Yeah - the Sixpack of Investigations... What Absolutely Blows My Mind

Is that Trump seems to be absolutely incapable of doing ANYTHING in a correct and lawful manner. Trump may just be the most corrupt, criminally inclined person on earth.

[Eddie18]

33. Trump investigations

With 6 entities under investigation, I doubt there is room for more but the Trump kids always seem to give us added amusement along with Jared, whose father is a convicted felon. Now, I wonder if Barron and Melania are up to no good. Nah, she's such a nice person with her media attacks and old-girl fashion statements. But, I digress. Next step for America is to start working on ousting the old GOP boys in the Senate and get new fresh, young Dems to help reverse the damage to our deficit, environment, healthcare and moral compass. One day, I will wake up and this nightmare will be over. The likes of Pruitt and Zinke will be ghosts of the past along with the other crooks. Sarah Sanders? She will become a nun, leave her family, and work with poor children in Peru or Indonesia. She will become a spokesperson for Jesus, telling us that every line in the Bible is true and while lacking facts, cannot be disputed.

[calimary]

47. Welcome to DU, Eddie18!

The whole rotten lot of them should be hosed. And after trump, starting with Pence.

Clear 'em ALL outta there. And then disinfect the place. And call a priest to perform an exorcism. And bring in a tribal elder to do a smudging ceremony for further purification.

[calimary]

35. There are several of these. SIX! Count 'em!

SIX separate swamps. Built by trump. He truly is the 21st Century Swamp Thing!

[SergeStorms]

37. I can't wait...

until our newly elected Attorney General, Letitia James, starts her investigations into every one of Trump's illegal activities in New York state. Trump is going to have so many law suits filed against him death will be his only relief. I will dance on his grave, I honestly will.

[SergeStorms]

36. Tear this VERY little man down to the ground!

I want to see Trump and his entire sanctimonious, thieving, lying, plastic family ruined. I want them publicly humiliated, manacled to a wall so each and every American may fling whatever substance they wish at the faces of these despicable sacks of shit. I want them bankrupt, penniless, never able to earn a living again, and I want them banished to the middle of the Sonoran desert in August, with no food, no water, and no clothing. It's much, much more than any of them deserve.

I hate them all, and I hate every republican piece of crap that enabled them.

[Grasswire2]

38. NO LENIENCY.

Dems always get burned by "going along to get along".

Got to kill this snake of weaponized "comity".

It's been one-sided war for forty years, with Dems trying to meet war with "concensus" building.

That has to end here and now.

[McCamy Taylor]

40. Won't happen, because Trump is a traitor. Dems will cut him zero slack.

[Grasswire2]

41. I'm seeing some GOP "never Trumpers" begin to call for simple resignation.

Now, why would that be?

They don't want anyone looking too closely at corruption rampant in their party even aside from Trump.

They don't want anyone looking back, either. Only forward.

They want blinders on queries, only looking at Trump et al.

Because the corruption going back decades STINKS of rot.

Richard Painter is one of them urging resignation now.

[McCamy Taylor]

39. This is because NO federal or state law enforcement agency protects traitors.

[JI7]

42. I would just love to punch that face

[calimary]

43. Six geese a'laying...

Yep. You're laying an egg, donald. Times six. At least.

[ck4829]

49. There seems to be a common link between all these things... can't quite put my finger on it though

[BlueJac]

51. LOCK HIM UP!
