Iâve said it before, Iâm sure Iâll say it again: The only thing that differentiates the Trump-Russia conspiracy from the Watergate scandal is that at least Nixon had the decency to hire American.

No downside, in fact an up side and aggressive law firm on board

The lawsuit echoes a similar legal tactic that the Democratic Party used during the Watergate scandal. In 1972, the DNC filed suit against then President Richard Nixonâs reelection committee seeking $1 million in damages for the break-in at Democratic headquarters in the Watergate building.
The suit was denounced at the time by Nixonâs attorney general, John Mitchell, who called it a case of âsheer demagogueryâ by the DNC. But the civil action brought by former DNC chair Lawrence F. OâBrien was ultimately successful, yielding a $750,000 settlement from the Nixon campaign that was reached on the day in 1974 that Nixon left office.

Every once in awhile, the Democrats have to remind the Republicans not to do this shiâŚkind of thing.
And every once in awhile, the voters need to do the same.

I thought he was using his 2020 grift campaign funds.
And whatâs striking about that is it (the campaign) is paying the legal fees of people who arenât even associated with the campaign, for example his former bodyguard Keith Schiller.

Iâve read in various places he can utilize campaign funds.

Maybe some enterprising Democratic Congressional candidate will point this out to the Trump supporters: their donations are paying for his lawyers. Because no one will inform them otherwise. Now THEREâS personal responsibility for you.

Theyâre going to have to sell a lot of those stupid ugly red MAGA hats to raise funds for their attorneysâ fees.

What about the stash of money that they raised for the inauguration festivities that were never used (because the local junior high school marching bands that participated didnât have much travel costs)?

I wonder if anyone has been able to put together a weekly âcostâ to people like Trump; Manafort; Etc.
It almost feels like Trumpâs tactic of bankrupting his detractors has been karmic-ally, gleefully spun back on him.

Totally generic.
