And there it is boys and girls moms and dads.
This is what brings this whole corrupt Grifting Administration down.
It all starts to fall in place . This is why Trump is so upset about the Russian inquiry. I don’t even think it will ultimately be about the election meddling.
They will be brought down by greed.
People with more money than you could use in 100 lifetimes wheeling and dealing , laundering money just to make more because
They have no shame , putting money before country .

It was a telling detail from Comey’s dinner story that Jared skulked around behind while Trump ordered everyone out of the room. Guilty conscience. Wanted to know if they were going to talk about him.

ETA

The Washington Post also revealed in its Wednesday evening report that FBI general counsel James A. Baker told Comey that he should not tell Trump that he was not under investigation.

I guess I’m slow because I’ve never seen what difference this point makes. OTOH, it underlines that, whatever his good points, Comey’s judgment on when to shoot off his trap hasn’t gotten better since October.

The irony being if the Trumps had not gotten into politics the shady dealings would have stayed shady.

This, at least, is what makes me smile. The rest of the Trump situation gives me heartburn.

The entire Trump family should have just stayed in their own sandbox to play their grifting games. This new playground in D.C. has a different set of rules and players.

It really does make you think that trump considered his winning the election just as unlikely as everyone else.

Quick draw McGraw! I’m not very good at troll spotting, but I even caught this one.

I miss the sport a bit, though.

But, just speculating, but there does seem to have been some relatively thought given specifically to the problems presented by the site potentially being trolled by contractors for a certain foreign power . . .

“We do not know what this report refers to,” Gorelick told the Post.

And so now they’re claiming not to read the Post at all . . .

We’ll finally hear Jared’s voice and his first public words will be, “We need more shredders!”

ObTopic…Dumblefuck’s repeated attacking of the Washington Post continues to bite him in the ass.

That old saw about buying ink by the barrel, etc…

I still contend that Putin forced or blackmailed Trump into running as a way to foster chaos in our election. Neither one thought that he stood a chance of winning and neither one seemed to have a plan for how to deal with a win. It is an almost certainty that the win will bring Don down (hopefully along with his corrupt family) and may also bring significant damage to Putin (it has already shown signs of weakening him on the world stage).

Show us that condescending smirk again Jared. Another smug member of the orange Godfather’s crime family placed on prison watch.

Putin certainly is able to push Trump’s buttons but I think Putin didn’t fully take into account Trump’s inability to control his mouth.
