Until his own party turns against him (wont happen until after they see the damage in 2018), nothing will happen.

Most Americans want a serious investigation of Russian interference in the election. I'm sure about the same number would want this latest er miscalculation looked into.

It feels like one of those nightmares you wake up glad it was a bad dream go back to sleep only to have the same nightmare all over again. Usually when this happens you are running a temperature. Trump does not even need alcohol to lose control.

Hey, laughing in the face of danger helps clear the mind and avoid panic. Here's something to help. At least I enjoyed Roger Stone, who is of course also being investigated by the FBI, "helping" by encouraging Rump to try to obstruct justice and publicly crowing about it.



Lol. You're going down, schmuck.

Congress? Don't make me laugh. We can forget about congress doing anything about degenerate donnie. Time to focus on Eric Schneiderman - he's our only hope.

The FBI was the only avenue to address Russia/Trump.

From their perspective, they just cut the head of the snake.

Gotta assume congress won't put a special prosecutor in place, so the last stand for what was once America is November of 2018.

If this country does not course correct in a BIG way then, it's over.

Schneiderman is looking at money laundering. And he's finding it. And Pence can't pardon for state crimes. You're looking at the wrong place. But I do agree about 2018.

I don't mean to discount Schneiderman, but a state AG being the last hope is a major hail mary ...

The fact Pence can't pardon donnie for anything NY AG finds is MAJOR.
