By blaming and attacking others, he is saying who he really is and what he is.

I recall Michael Cohen saying that Trump speaks in Codes. I read between the lines. Trump is SCARED! Not so much of the word IMPEACHMENT, but being declared ILLEGITIMATE!! His entire presidency is ILLEGITIMATE!

We need to focus on the psychology of it.

In terms Trump could understand, a canard from my youth: Who smelt it, dealt it!

when they talk about Trump and Russia.

Trump continues to hear that, he will explode. He will not be able to contain himself and finally expose that rotten inner core that occupies him. He dares to suppress the FREE Press and FREE Speech, we have the White House and both Houses of Congress. Because not even the Supreme Court will violate the 1st Amendment to the US Constitution.

Notice the tweet he deleted this morning - from Vox
https://www.vox.com/2019/5/30/18645526/trump-russia-elected-help-twitter

President Donald Trump has finally admitted what many have known for more than two years: Russia helped elect him as president.

In a tweetstorm pushing back against the conclusions of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation — no collusion with Russia, maybe obstruction of justice — Trump either purposely or accidentally referred to Moscow’s preference for him in the 2016 election.

“Russia, Russia, Russia! That’s all you heard at the beginning of this Witch Hunt Hoax,” Trump tweeted on Thursday morning. “And now Russia has disappeared because I had nothing to do with Russia helping me to get elected. It was a crime that didn’t exist.”

The key part there, just for emphasis, was “I had nothing to do with Russia helping me to get elected.” In other words, “the Kremlin tried to help me win, but I didn’t coordinate with them.”

And we need to add to those ranks because the Election of 2020 just may be the MOST important in our lifetimes.

We need to keep this level of pressure up on a steady basis because at some point he's going to lose it all and it won't be pretty.

Usually they are too scared of the MAGAts saying they are not “objective”.

It's not a metric term, so it's probably 12 or 16 or something.

2 pints make a quart. 8 quarts make a flurry? I can never remember.

have the perfect strategy in place. Simply move through the process of oversight, let the FACTS be heard again and again and build public support and momentum to oust the Orange Douche in the next election. If it's deemed necessary to start articles of Impeachment so be it, in the meantime turn the pressure gauge to ludicrous level and get your popcorn.

This rat has Twitter, a broadcast network, and an army of nationalists, white supremacists
and general stick-it-to-the-libs assholes.

He is such a piece of garbage. It makes me angry that he is traipsing around on the taxpayers money trashing his country. What a lowlife.
