While Trump and Giuliani are busy pretending that collusion is not a crime or big deal, Senator Chris Coons simply reads from the U.S. Code title 52 section 30121: I'll be sooo glad when this pretend presidency is over, and the reign of lies and ignorance subsides.....

The problem these pendejos keep forgetting is the fact that it is illegal to obtain something valuable from a foreign government in order to benefit an election bid.... so Trump basically has confessed to a crime... the spineless GOP are just following along as if it is fine... not a problem....speaking of...... every time I have to see Devin Nunes in committee.... I just want to throw up...
I can't even talk to him civilly, he is as obnoxious in person as he is in front of a camera.... he makes snide remarks all of the time and Heaven help you if you don't support Trump....
there a few others in the House.... I just avoid even walking near them if I can help it...

To President Loser... Dear Mr Trump,
If you think collusion is not illegal, then you must believe a person who steals top secrete stuff and gives it to our sworn enemy is just fine and dandy. There is no doubt that you hate the United States of America. If you don;t then prove it. Step down.

Maybe I not sure always how American politics work but I know from my history books and my citizenship exams.... this ISN'T it!!! Sometime I feel almost in dreamlike state, how someone can keep getting by with all these issues and scandals and still his base cheer gleefully at him. I am predicting he most likely in future he be impeached and no matter if guilty in Senate or no... his base will scream for heads... They total irrational people with no ability to think on own, they function as groupthink... what the group believes is truth. Sad people

I can't help wondering what trump supporters will do if trump leaves the WH - either thru election loss, or impeachment (or expiration of his 2 terms). Apparently a number of his more volatile supporters are quite liberal with their death and rape threats against anyone who dares to criticize trump. It seem they are more than just a few nut cases. I can see trump playing poor loser/victim and whipping them into a frenzy - and if, God forbid, he does get elected to a 2nd term, and when it's up - will he try for his "president for life" with the full support of his base? The ramifications are a bit unnerving. Having him for 4 years is bad enough!

Some folks here are strictly anti-gun, I got an ugly thought to share: The whole right wing is fervently pro-gun, like a religion, and have been whipped into an emotional frenzy to hate... everyone that is not one-of-them. Do you want these people to be the only ones that have guns? The United States is not Great Britain, not Australia, not Canada, not like any country in the EU. Banning guns in the U.S. is not going to happen, unless there is an enormous cultural shift....give it another couple hundred years. So in the meantime...well, think about it.

I have posted this before but the misconception persists.
Firearms are not banned in Australia, nor in Canada and not in European countries. They are however sensibly regulated and traceable to the registered owners.

Todos queremos seguridad y buscamos seguridades. Nos da miedo cuando no hay seguridad, cuando perdemos nuestras seguridades o cuando se ven amenazadas o reducidas. Es humano tener miedo........ This MAN has so much.... so MUCH to answer for my friends..... Traitor....coward.....spit upon the dirt for him.... He is worthless!!!

Nope.....None. The collusion isn't exactly illegal.... it is the conspiracy BEHIND all of this which is illegal.... enough to satisfy the high crimes and misdemeanors aspect of conducting impeachment hearings.... If Congress has a spine but alas.... they may just gloss over it....

....let me guess....it's illegal if a Democrat does it. Well.... let me just say.... if it were Mr. Obama?? They would have dragged him out of the Oval Office and crucified him.... that's what is so disgusting about this Congress.... You have to place a gun to their heads before they do something and something meaning the patriotic duties of what they took an oath for.... GOP=Cowards ...... Trump has effectively destroyed the Republican Party, they have sunk so low to the point of obsequiousness.... It just boggles the mind.....
