Discussion: Trump Downgrades 'No Obstruction' To ... 'Essentially No Obstruction'

I didn’t notice that the ambassador of Mexico was there paying it for people.

That’s because he was at another fruit stand somewhere, paying people there.

“How can there be obstruction if there was no underlying crime?,” Barr asks.

@forcryinoutloud

how many Scaramucci’s

Funny thing about that metric: Tony the Scar changed it the other day, claiming he was actually employed for 11 days, not ten. “Stop short-changing me,” he said.

Curiously, he did NOT mention that he was fired before he was ever actually on the White(s Only) House payroll.

Anthony Scaramucci insists he lasted 11 days, not 10: 'Stop short-changing me!'

Don’t worry, Matt. The price of tomatoes will plummet as soon as American farmers can find enough Mexican laborers to pick their crops.

Seriously I saw a piece just now on how this immigration craziness is killing agriculture in my area.

My self-impeachment will be bigly, believe me. I don’t need Mueller or Barr. I can do it by myself!

Let’s hope he doesn’t have occasion to to say that he used the nuclear codes “only a little bit”

“I only essentially grabbed pussies.”

[ficus7813]

I imagine this is the start of that much-visited slippery slope, which arrives (in a few months’ time) at Trump surrogates on the TV telling us that yes, he did it, it was great, totally not a crime, anyone in that position would have done it, it’s the Democrats’ fault he had to do it, why isn’t anyone investigating Mueller’s obstruction, …

[mattinpa]

Next step is for Rudy to say he’s looked through the codes and there’s nothing that says nonessential obstruction is a crime. But seriously folks, what’s he admitting here? This must be about something they figure is coming out soon that they have to explain away because it can’t be simply denied.

try rebutting it on a bumper sticker

2020 bumper sticker:

“Trump: No Obstruction! OK, Maybe A Little Obstruction! C’mon, Only A Couple Dozen Obstructions!”

There is no cannibalism in the British navy, absolutely none, and when I say none, I mean there is a certain amount.

Almost the same amount of cannibalism…and obstruction…as there is spam in this plate of Eggs, Eggs and Spam.

besides… obstruction is not a crime

@irasdad

C’mon, Only A Couple Dozen Obstructions!"

What’s wrong with a little obstruction amongst comrades?

The 12 Step Program

No obstruction.
Essentially no obstruction.
OK, some obstruction.
Occasional obstruction, but I didn’t mean to.
Technical obstruction, but IOKIYAPOTUS.
Total and complete obstruction. Waddaya gonna do about it, loser?
They can’t do this to me.
It’s a vast left wing conspiracy.
I won’t leave.
Can I go in the helicopter?
That’s not Mar-A-Lago.
I’ll trade you a cigarette for those fries.

[casper]

It’s a perfectly cromulent word.

besides, it was Hillary who conspired with russia to help me squeak in under the constitutional oddity known as the electoral college

[oldtiroadbike]

Hardly any conspiracy.

“I didn’t do it.”

“Essentially I didn’t do it.”

“I don’t recall doing it.”

“Even if I did it, it wasn’t wrong.”

“Even if it was wrong, I didn’t know it was wrong so it doesn’t count.”

“I did it, but there’s no one who can do anything about it.”

Damnit, I missed again! @ficus7813 @cub_calloway

[filmknight]

Double plus good!
