The Mueller Report

[Anonymous]

During Clinton impeachment, the public perceived the events to be punishment for private behavior. Trump's obstruction is using power of the presidency to shield him from public accountability.

Let's not use false equivalences and whataboutism to equate the two.

Also, the FBI alerted both the GOP and the Dems that they were subject to hacks. Who paid attention?

What exactly has Trump done to stop Russian influence on our elections? Be specific.

Nothing. Homeland Security and others have been warning that Russian election hacking and influence operations have actually gotten even more aggressive since 2016.

Hi America,
America you had a good time while it lasted. Now you have small minded cult 45 members who cares not about You but about their cult leader and about the defeat of Fellow American Democrats. Country be damned. The cult 45 members don’t care about their leader being a liar, conman, fraud, destroyer of democratic institutions, lacks basic human decency or even a traitor if he could make money. So long my dear America. These fake patriots have finally blown you to pieces. You have debt as big as the gdp. So hope the cult 45 fake patriots will one day give way to a diverse and renewed America. Just hang in there America. You maybe down but we, the true patriots wont let you go down the tube. Not yet and not without a fight with the fake patriots fed on fake faux news.

Actually, ranter, I don't care for 45. However, I'd rather have 45 than someone who wishes to change the principles on which we were founded. We were not founded on socialism. We were founded as a republic that respected individual rights and freedoms. We were founded on freedom of religion, too. And, if you go back to the initial revolt, it was over taxes. Democrats want to change that.

Have mistakes been made? Sure. Slavery was the most egregious one--but, we had a war and changed that. Many Americans gave their lives in that war. Lately, we've made some other mistakes involving wars. Some poor decisions were made. Also, a law for health care was passed against the wishes of most Americans. And some Congressmen lost their jobs as a result of that passage. Some have come to support that law--many still resent the way it was done and the results that led to a big jump in health care costs. That still needs to be worked out. Immigration is another issue that is still in turmoil. Neither Republicans or Dems have done the right thing on that issue. Many in their ivory towers think it is fine--many in communities struggling with the influx of people and children are aware that something needs to be done--and soon. It is overwhelming school systems who are working to educate all, but were not prepared for the rapid increase in kids who need so much. Eventually, it will be worked out.

Some think more government is the answer. I do not.

uh, support for the ACA is riding around 70% right now. You may want to check that argument.

In the ultimate irony, ACA approval started rising when the Trumpsters finally realized that Obamacare was how they were getting their health care.

This. But, in any case, it was passed against the wishes of most Americans. Many of them remember Nancy walking in with her caucus and basically thumbing her nose at the protesters.

So about that changing of the principles thing....

I like my presidents to respect the peaceful transfer of power, whether it is 4 years or 8.

Good lord, now they’re quoting Russian spies. And bringng in Bernie. Could these people get any more stupid?

"I know you are but what am I, pp?" That is the response your idiotic response and the response before yours deserves.

If your cave is so dark that you cannot except that Russia was involved in the 2016 election, nothing can help you.

I cannot stand Bernie but I will vote for him if I have to.

Carry on with your cocktail.

PP here. I have no idea how you managed to so completely misconstrue what I was saying, but you did. I think Trump is selling his soul and our country to Russia, and has been for some time. And I can’t stand Bernie either, but I’ll vote for him in the unlikely event that he is the Democratic nominee.
