Was that supposed to be comedy, or is he on a lecture tour.

I suppose it was designed to be comedy at first, but now it seems like it's both.

It's even worse. Trump told Pence and Sessions to leave the office before he made his little "request" to Comey. Besides, Trump may think Flynn is a "good guy", but there's enough evidence to point to the fact that he's dirty as hell.
Apparently Trump gave a speech at the Coast Guard Academy graduation in which he claimed to be the "worst-treated candidate/president ever." Now who the ★■◆●'s the "snowflake"?

Actually, didn't he say:
Donald Trump wrote:"Never, ever, ever give up. Things will work out just fine. Look at the way I have been treated lately, especially by the media. No politician in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly."
Frankly, with his despicable behavior, he deserves all the ridicule everyone can dish out.

Yea I have to agree, but the problem is...all of the crap being thrown at him is just creating a giant fog, where the real important things are getting lost.

None of this crazy stuff surrounding Trump fazes you Spidey? Doesn't his unstable behavior at the very least bother you at all? The man can't focus on his job because he's paranoid and thin-skinned, not because of all the fog. In fact, he's been creating most of that fog with his firing of Comey and his inept attempts at trying to stop investigations concerning some of his people (who are clearly guilty of some sort of crooked money dealings with Russia and Ukraine). Even the markets today took a Trump dump. The handwriting is on the wall.
And what's everyone's opinion of this news. I don't know enough about Mueller to make a judgement call, but he was appointed by the DOJ.

I'm stunned.

Yes, I know you never said any of that. I know you are worried about the important things and deeds being lost or not put forth in all this press lust for blood. I'd still like to see Obamacare repealed and that isn't going to happen as long as this scandal takes the oxygen out of everything. I just wanted to know if you consider any of this "fog" that's been surrounding Trump to be nothing but a partisan witch hunt, or does it have even a smidgen of voracity somewhere in your mind?

Speaking of the Trump debacle, it keeps getting worse.

Any bets the memos were written after he was fired? Sour grapes anyone?

How much will you be willing to wager, publicly, on this board? Name your number. Comey has been writing extemporaneous memos at least going back to his years as Asst AG. Memos sent via computer can be dated, precisely, so I'll take your bet, up to any amount you wish. Of course, you'll likely show no more balls than the faker in the White House, but to suggest sour grapes is yet another show that you have no more interest in standing up for your nation than the likes of Flynn and the rest.

You're bending over backwards so far it's a miracle your spine hasn't snapped in two.
