(14,825 posts)burnt or otherwise, toast is an honorable food. It has done nothing to betray the constitution or the american people.
Toast has never broken the law routinely (or at all). Toast has never lied on a daily basis (or at all). Toast never separated children permanently from their families and locked them away without healthcare or education.
I know toast (light and dark). Toast is my friend. Trump is not toast.
Trump is guilty.

(8,923 posts)a major cover-up.
This is what got Nixon in trouble with the public.
The crime of breaking into the DNC headquarters didn't get him,
it was the cover-up.
Pendejo tried to cover-up his actions as well.
And where is Pence in all this. I hope he was mentioned as well.

(4,533 posts)Even Fox News Judge Napolitano says Trump obstructed the Mueller investigation. More than 1000 former Fed prosecutors agree, most from Republican administrations. Am I on candid camera? Why are they ignoring Mueller obstruction of justice?

(3,538 posts)Set up a drug deal. They were not trying to set up a drug deal. What they did try to do is bad enough; it doesnt need to be embellished. It just confuses the issue. Trumpettes dont do well with metaphors.

Z was supposed to make that announcement on C- span or something , I forget why it didn't happen.
Pretty obvious what the intent was .
