They’re cornered.

They’re cooked.

They’re toast.

They’re unindicted co-conspirators and they know it.

Their days are numbered.

At this point, their days might only be hours.

And Bastille Day is tomorrow!

“It’s not positively asserted, therefore it is negatively concluded” is toddler logic from the Toddler in Chief.

That’s not a reaction to the indictments. That’s a reiteration of what’s not in the indictments.

The stench of desperation is getting stronger and stronger.

Well, their boss asked the Russians to commit one of the crimes for which two have been charged.

Conspiracy !

So they are lying.

As usual.

“President Donald Trump, who has known about the pending indictments all week, has made no move to cancel his upcoming summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin in light of the charges.”

It sure will be interesting if Trump comes out of his “summit” and promptly fires the DAG in an effort to stop the investigation.

Faced with the choice of responding in the national interest or in Donnie’s interest, the White House chose … well, you know how this sentence ends.

The absence from an indictment of allegations irrelevant and unnecessary to bringing the indictment is not proof of the absence of evidence to support said allegations.

Desperate fucktards.

“There is no allegation in this indictment that Americans knew that they were corresponding with Russians.

There is no allegation in this indictment that any American citizen committed a crime.

Today’s charges include no allegations of knowing involvement by anyone on the campaign…”

Isn’t it amazing how the entire context of a statement can change with just a little bolding?

I’m convinced that Trump ordered Rosenstein to make those superfluous statements.

Trump has, however, ordered that pardons for the indicted Russians be drawn up for his perusal when he returns.
