    the POTUS is an almost pope/deity like position for the Americans. The sanctity of that role is huge to them.

    Except for all everyone that hated Black Obama, denied he was american, believed he was a muslim atheist and want to undo everything he ever touched.

    Another of trump’s (ex) chums has flipped on him.

    and one of the incumbent republicans just got spending his campaign funds on himself – apparently the quote from the wife is

    “If you buy golf shorts from there we can claim it’s golf balls for injured veterans”

    If I may, briefly…

    I don’t know if you can depose a monarch against their will

    I believe it’s been done…

    The actual stroke delivered by a ‘same surname’ member of the family tree – an ancestor of mine, or so I read.

    Today, ‘Mr Whackit’, perhaps. 😲🤠

    As you were…

    Cohen’s lawyer, Lanny Davis, has given a series of cable-news interviews intimating that Cohen has valuable and damaging information on Trump to share with Mueller—including the claim that Trump had foreknowledge of Russia’s hacking of Clinton’s e-mails.

    One source close to Cohen told me Cohen wants to tell Mueller that Trump discussed the release of Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta’s e-mails during the weekend when the Access Hollywood “grab ’em by the pussy” tape dominated the news cycle.

    Hah, and just as an aside- every time you hear Trump talking about US defence spending, remember what that actually includes and doesn’t- so much of it is about accounting. Usually I use the example of the VA students we have learning how to make beer, which I think is a great use of $100000 military funds really, But now we can use golf balls for Duncan Hunter too.

    And another long term Trump associate has flipped

    https://www.ft.com/content/2c23062c-a7ba-11e8-926a-7342fe5e173f

    Trump’s past was always going to bite him in the arse, no wonder he kept his tax return secret

    Paywalled link, but Found it here , oooh that’s gonna feel like a kick in the nuts to trump – Let’s hope he spills his guts about the trump organisation and it’s funding, perhaps we’ll see the orange **** spending the rest of his life in a grey cell rather than his golden shower palace

    Starting to sound like ‘Don’ Trump sounds right.

    There’s an interview on Fox when he bangs on about flippers and it’s not fair.

    Hes starting to sound a bit gangsta as opposed to a president.

    If your innocent they can’t flip it’s pretty simple.

    Look at the concentration on his face as he tries to keep it between the lines, that’s a very taxing test for him

    Well.he has a bigger test today trying to not make John Mcain passing away about him and delivering a fitting statement about somebody way more qualified for his job than he is.

    Sadly, he’s already failed that test.

    Here’s how another of McCain’s political opponents dealt with it.

    Re martinhutch’s pic, there’s more to that photo than first appears. Seems Agent Orange is showing his true colours, as he doesn’t appear to know what colours the country of which he’s president actually has.

    It’s worth reading the comments following the actual article, proper lol stuff going on.

    Question is how drawn out will it be? democrats don’t want to speak about impeachment as it galvanises the republican/trump voters, and even if the polls show the republicans losing Congress , nothings certain.

    Meuller won’t indict a sitting presidpre, so Trump’s only choice is to win a 2nd term, (Pence has the charisma of a corpse, so it’s the only option for the reps)

    Will Cohen have enough to bring him down? This article thinks so over Russia https://www.spectator.co.uk/2018/08/trumpworld-is-spinning-out-of-control/

    He’s got decades of dodgy dealings tho so there’s plenty of other options, + Papadopoulos, Flynn etc could still have given Meuller enough already.

    I also think impeachment would be a mistake (assuming that we don’t see something so truly shocking in terms of collusion) – I think it will feed the “washington swamp” conspiracy narrative that Donald’s been pushing, and preparing for by seeking to undermine anyone that could possibly harm him (FBI, DOJ, the press etc).  Also – I wonder from a practical perspective how long it will take.

    Personally, I’d just like to see the volume and nature of the charges/allegations/investigations get to the point that NOBODY other than his base will support him (including the GOP).  I feel like with every new one that comes to light, he loses a demographic of voters.  An abortion scandal (extramarital?) would absolutely bury him, and isn’t outside the realms of possibility now that his “fixer” is singing like a canary – but I think there’s enough low hanging fruit have a big enough cumulative impact at this point.  The democrats just need to coordinate so that it all lands according to a schedule designed to absolutely knock him sideways.

    But as I said all of this counts for naught unless you give people somebody else they can vote for – otherwise they are just going to vote for Pence.

    I feel like the only candidate that could unite the nation is Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson 🙂

    Slamming trump into a cell as he takes over.

    I do hope it takes down the whole family there, loyalty and all that.

    Interestingly you can pick a replacement for McCain his wife is in with a chance, given how disparaging Trump was about John don’t think she will vote with him.

    I still find myself amazed at his complete inability to string words together into a coherent sentence.  Look at this from his rally speech in Ohio last night when he was talking about Ohio <span style=”font-size: 0.8rem;”>congressman Jim Jordan, whose bid to replace House speaker Paul Ryan has been damaged by allegations that he ignored reports of sexual abuse while working as a wrestling coach at Ohio State University.</span>

    “Don’t ever wrestle him. Even if you’re bigger than him don’t arrest him. You know people don’t know this about Jim. He was one of the best wrestlers ever in college wrestler.

    “And when you see the way he fights every time I watch I said in my wife I said, look at that guy. That is tough. He lost one match in three years of college. One match you lost and you had to see what happened to the guy that beat him. He was not in good shape that night.”

    My kids were talking more coherently than that when they were 4 years old.

    Yep, I always think he sounds like there is a complete conversational narrative going on in his head, but he only remembers to speak parts of it out loud.

    It’s like overhearing fragments of someone else’s phone call when they are in bad reception.

    Don’t think he’ll be impeached, the sensible thing would be to stand down next election- so that can be ruled out. I wonder who’ll stand against him?

    The whole thing will probably depend on how bad the muller findings are, if there is illegal activity it will be hard work for him. They can easily not select him as you would expect everything to be dropped then.

    I’m waiting for the firings, it can’t be long before something triggers Trump and he’ll try and fire everyone involved with the Mueller investigation.

    I reckon there’ll be a mad moment in this when something strange will happen maybe people will refuse to stand down after being fired and there’s an FBI versus president stand off.

    Step 1.

    Fire Rod Rosenstein or Jess Sessions and make his successor fire Muller

    Step 2 When that doesn’t work fire them all till you get somebody who will

    What worries me the most these days is the fact that Trump likes a good distraction when times are troubling for him…….What’s he got in mind this time?

    I reckon the investigation will show some collusion but that it won’t be deemed illegal (I thought I read somewhere it was only illegal if deemed a contribution to the campaign and it’s not been tested yet whether provision of information on an opposing candidate falls under that). So he’ll survive and carry on f**king things up whilst his deluded supporters keep turning a blind eye.

    Dwayne Johnson to play the lead fbi agent, busting down the door? Jason Statham as Trump?

    Given all the charges that Cohen and Manafort (and all the others) have already been found guilty of, at the very least you have to wonder what will happen to his children.

    When old trumpy campaigned about “a wall” he meant it metaphorically didn’t he.

    Didnt he?

    Becuase he’s certainly building some sort of fortress around himself..

    In preparation for something big, no doubt..
