You really are as naïve as you seem, aren’t you? What a fool!

OnTrump antipathy to speech that displeases him is well known, his manipulation of public opinion via disinformation and flagrant pervarication a proven chain of fact. His admin represents a clear and present threat to the first amendment in both free speech and the application of religious testing for civic participitation. One can only hope that the hand picked supreme court appointees take their oath to the Republic more seriously than loyalty to a temporary potus or partisan agenda.

Donny at the NRA: “Your Second Amendment rights are under siege, but they will never, ever be under siege as long as I’m your president.”

Um, Donny, you just contradicted yourself... Hopeless moron.

McCain Doesn't Want Trump at his Funeral

(McCain's) intimates have informed the White House that their current plan for his funeral is for Vice President Mike Pence to attend the service to be held in Washington’s National Cathedral but not President Trump...

As the ‘King of Debt,’ Trump borrowed to build his empire. Then he began spending hundreds of millions in cash.

Quote:
n the nine years before he ran for president, Donald Trump’s company spent more than $400 million in cash on new properties — including 14 transactions paid for in full, without borrowing from banks — during a buying binge that defied real estate industry practices and Trump’s own history as the self-described “King of Debt.”

Trump’s vast outlay of cash, tracked through public records and totaled publicly here for the first time, provides a new window into the president’s private company, which discloses few details about its finances.

It shows that Trump had access to far more cash than previously known, despite his string of commercial bankruptcies and the Great Recession’s hammering of the real estate industry.

Why did the “King of Debt,” as he has called himself in interviews, turn away from that strategy, defying the real estate wisdom that it’s unwise to risk so much of one’s own money in a few projects?

And how did Trump — who had money tied up in golf courses and buildings — raise enough liquid assets to go on this cash buying spree?

From the outside, it is difficult to assess how much cash the Trump Organization has on hand.
Where did all this ca$h come from? Sounds very fishy to me. One thing Mueller's team is very good at is following the money and one wonders if this is what is taking Mueller's team this long, not just the collusion but the money laundering. Manafort and Cohen have been cornered and need to see what they have been hiding.

So what could the Dotard possibly be of guilty of? Collusion, money laundering and campaign finance violation? And he calls this a witch hunt?

Read this lengthy profile of Cohen to get an idea of the sleaziness and criminality Cohen (and likely Trump) are wrapped up in.

That Times magazine is forced to address the deficiencies of the FBI indicates that Fox News is effective.

Tucker Carlson has evolved.

This has nothing to do with Russian and English. I know you are well informed. Read the magazine's cover story. May 14,2018.
