Discussion: Trump Seizes On Conspiracy That FBI Tipped Off CNN: 'Who Alerted CNN To Be There?'

[dudeman]

So Trump joins the FOX chorus complaining about being scooped? Once again FOX fails to commit journalism and Trump deflects. Ha

Unfortunately, Trump’s base is going to run this into the ground as some great conspiracy and we’ll never hear the end of it.

I could care less what the animal’s base runs into the ground. We can’t do anything about them, and we can’t let them dictate our lives. So they run it into the ground. That has no effect on the facts. Reality will hit them hard in the faces sooner or later. It’s already hitting some of them, who believe that their Lord and Savior Donald John Trump is “hurting the wrong people.” Anyone who complains, not about the fact that people are being hurt for no good reason, but about the fact that the “wrong” ones are being hurt doesn’t merit my attention, respect or charity. They’re dead to me.

Oh, here comes Stone. This will be predictable. He has some supporters there, including a very attractive blonde who already informed us that this is a witch hunt.

Break out the Saurian Brandy – it’s Mueller Time!

[chelsea530]

People are booing Stone! hahahaha!

[asturcot]

I always thought this was the Trump card

[chelsea530]

OMG. Shouting “Lock him up!”

I love it! You can hardly hear Stone!

[littlegirlblue]

trumpp’s “base” except for RW radio talkers is nearly nonexistent. And however many there are they’ll be sure to use what they heard moron say about mueller’s rogue, out of control investigation. So fuck 'em and tune them out.

Who alerted CNN???

I really don’t care. Do you?

Me neither.

Let them say whatever. They talk shit regardless. They are fools, which is obvious to the rest of us.

Yup. It wouldn’t be much more of a stir than if they sent a press release about a holiday canned-food drive. I did think if they did tip them off, they had plenty of reasons to.

Yes, and this is yet another of those things that only upsets his most hardcore supporters, those who’ve already pledged fealty and their firstborn to him. Everyone else is like, “Uhhh, okay?? How does this change anything?”

Not give any credence to the Liar-in-chief and his guilty-person ramblings (because innocent people don’t tweet like that), but…
The FBI has been hampered by the gov’t shutdown. The Liar-in-chief and his administration has called them and their tactics into question, undermining their investigations and work ethics. Maybe they didn’t want to make this so public, but…

Payback is a bitch.

[doctorbiobrain]

Fact: Conservatives honestly think it’s wrong for the media to report anything bad about any conservative, because they firmly believe in the power of propaganda and put the public perception of their team ahead of all else.

When you attack one conservative, you attack all conservatives; and you wouldn’t report anything negative about anyone unless they’re your enemy. Bias isn’t a double-standard for them. It’s the strategy. That’s what makes them a cult.

Jared done it. False Flag!

Of course, the constant conspiracy&victimhood is odd; however, the other odd thing is how the whole world not yet against Donnie two scoops.

Remember back in school - the dimwitted asshole bully always had a handful of loyal knuckleheads who followed him in every thing he did - some worshiped him - some stuck by him because they could not gain high stature among the other groups of kids… they would have blended into the crowd.
Yes everybody has flaws - but Trump has done an exceptional job of gathering up an exceptionally flawed following - selfish, bigots, haters, bullies, xenophobes - and he pleasures them by telling them to embrace their darksides - be proud of your inner evil - let it out …

Love the Star Trek reference.

Weak sauce, Mr. “President”

Now, on to bigger and better things…

Thank you! Way too much time and energy is wasted hand-wringing over what his base will and won’t believe. At this point, he could rape their children in front of them and they’d just be thankful he shared himself with their family. They’re lost and they’re not coming back. The rest of the country is what we need to worry about.

“I expect that we will learn more about Mr. Stone’s campaign role, his communications regarding Wikileaks, and who else knew about Stone’s efforts,” Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) said in a Friday morning statement.

I just snuck out of Schadenfreude ICU, and I only have a few seconds before they realize I’ve escaped.

For G-d’s sake, if you’re reading this message, then please:

PUT EVERY CENT YOU HAVE INTO POPCORN-FLAVORED BOURBON FUTURES!!!

They’re coming for me now; I can hear them; I don’t know how much longer I can –

@greysea

Here’s the thing. What the hell difference does it make if the FBI did tip off a news crew? We saw him get arrested so he’s innocent? Tell that to every poor schmo who’s ever been on cops.

It makes no difference, except to his slack-jawed ten-tooth base.
