NP here. It's no defense, that's for sure. But I do think it's possible that they didn't realize what a very serious crime they were committing. I'm sure they knew it was sketchy but maybe didn't know it was treason. This is why we need politicians in politics. We need people who have studied the law and government and have experience governing. Rs thought they were being so clever and edgy electing an outsider, but this family knows less about government than my 5th grader. You should have to take some sort of aptitude test to run for office.

Didn't Comey let Hillary off over intent?

We now know that he was guilty of intent. I'm certainly not saying he didn't know he was doing something wrong. Of course he did. Otherwise he wouldn't have lied about it. I'm just saying he might not have realized the magnitude of it. I'm not defending him. My point is that we need elected officials who have basic knowledge to do their job and surround themselves with people who know right from wrong.

He is trying to get the olympics here while we ban team members from certain countries, how does that work. Nice try at deflection though.

It actually terrifies me that he is sitting and stewing over this while holding the nuclear codes.

This isn't Ivanka, he won't care. Seriously. Don Jr is f*cked and his dad will just cover his own ass.

If Big Don lets Junior take the fall, then will Junior flip on him? They've had a strained relationship in the past, right?

I honestly think he would sacrifice the boys for Ivanka.

The problem for him is that Ivanka isn't clean either. They are all going down.

He will issue pardons for everyone, no matter what evil deeds come to light. The Republicans in congress will scream and yell, but I am not sure they'd have the spine to impeach him even then.

Meh. That says nothing about accepting opposition research from them with the intent of swinging the US election, though.
