Cover-up is worse than the crime

It brought Nixon down and it's going to destroy the Trump family.



“Obviously I’m the first person on a campaign to ever take a meeting to hear info about an opponent... went nowhere but had to listen,” he wrote in one tweet. In another, he added, “No inconsistency in statements, meeting ended up being primarily about adoptions. In response to further Q’s I simply provided more details.”


This is pure nonsense.

Georgetown University Professor Paul Butler said Trump Jr committed a crime by accepting information from a foreign Government.

Trump Jr knew from an email he received (prior to the meeting) that the information in the arranged meeting was coming from the Russian Government.

Here is the statute.

Trump surrounded himself with a bunch of amateurs who knew very little about elections.

It is very clear what took place and I suspect there is even more damning evidence to come.

Trump and his plus size drawers will be exposed for the world to see....It won't be a pretty sight

How ironic that it is trump who will be locked up and have his decaying presence drained from the swamp.

Of course he committed a crime - they are a crime family

This is going to be an interesting chess match, Trump and his boys don't know what the FBI know or don't know. One can even be pitted against the other. Investors sometimes lie about or exaggerate, how much information they have.

It's going to get interesting.

Lots of questions about their conduct but no evidence of collusion.

Trump Jnr. in a bit of trouble seeking information from a foreign government though.

To quote Dan Rather of CBS fame, "If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, you've got a duck.".

That's why they are conducting an investigation.

Irrelevant. You commit the crime, you get impeached.

His attacks on Obama is enough for these folks.

The alternative of Pence and Bannon maybe much worst than Trump.

I am aware that Pence would be worse than Trump but so be it.

So far, Trump is doing the same things Pence would do, anyway.

numerous instances of downright shake downs and shafting of others as a standard business practice by them...

I suspect the evidence is stacking up Trump knows it hence his dazed behaviour in recent weeks.


It appears they have given him enough rope to hang himself.


Initially there will be the offering of a sacrificial lamb....... then the whole house of cards will come tumbling down

 
bravos 2017-07-11 09:56:51 

It's all unraveling and it can't be stopped,no surprises here,just delays due to processes,much more to come.

Down with Thump.

After being told that The Times was about to publish the content of the emails, instead of responding to a request for comment, Donald Trump Jr. tweeted out images of them himself on Tuesday lol

 
black 2017-07-11 13:16:03 

Time for the FBI to start squeezing a few people, offer them a good deal for telling the truth or a stiff sentence for lying. Sometimes you have to make deals in order to get to the big fish.

I am not aware of that and you are assuming too much.

It is a simple question. To phrase it in another way what do you see the mood being like the day after Trump gets impeached?

 
black 2017-07-11 14:03:35

I have no idea what the mood of the Country is going to be, but Pence has introduced (signed) some crazy legislation in Indiana.

Lots and lots of anger.

Pretty Sure Meuller kicked into high gear this morning ....cause to prove that DONALD TRUMP senior knew NOTHING about this taking place , one floor beneath him in Trump Tower...is a stretch...

and that desperate release that DT only knew about this EMAIL during the last few hours takes a lot more effort to believe.

for whom? big grin

but let me be serious...

I get the impression his impulse to release it BEFORE NYT was his motivation....

sadly...that was his only play and now lean on the ( I am cooperating and being transparent here).

Worse: The email is very incriminating given ALL those denials since last June to present day...well...up to yesterday.

Runs did you read the comments from your link?

America is so deeply divided that intelligent Americans find themselves supporting anything for and against Trump.

And I hope you understand no one will want Pence. Everyone with a vote will feel hard done.

Civil war.

That is nonsense dude. No one is above the law, his supporters will accept that, even if they are not happy with the decision.

Any decision to remove him, would be backed up with strong evidence.
