...was this corrupt.

He's been the same way since the 1980s. All you had to do was open your eyes or do a little research to find out how the guy operates. None of this was a secret. Did you just ignore the truth because you wanted 1 or 2 things?

Or is this all about guaranteeing that the 1st president after the 1st minority president was someone who could be savage to your political opponents?

That's half true.

They know he's corrupt and they HIGHlY approve of it, since it's for causes they support.

They were shocked that he won and those who spoke out about what a terrible person he is decided to put politics above what would be good for the country. They are shameless and selfish and hopefully they are going down in 2020.

They don't care. Trump was a TV 'personality', and in the land where 'celebrity' is worshipped (see the hysteria over a bunch of overpaid actors and the Oscars), that's all the qualification necessary. He's been on TV. That makes him Very Important.

Trump was shocked that he won. Did you see the look on his face after Obama gave him the tour? It clearly said, 'what the **** have I gotten myself into; it sounds hard'.
 
Oh but they had very good reason to vote for Trump, several of them. "He talks just like me, tells it like it is". "I like him because he's not a politician". "He's a billionaire, he can't be bribed". "He's a successful businessman and this country should be run like a business".

Do we really have to pass a law that a presidential candidate must pass an FBI investigation before he can be a candidate? In Trump's case that would have saved this country from destruction because if investigated beforehand, Trump would have been revealed as nothing more than a NY mob boss, tax cheater, liar, womanizer and failed businessman.

Trump didn’t even want to be president. He was just looking for a way to boost his brand’s image. Once elected though, he has decided to make the most of it for himself.

Trump hasn't done anything during his campaign and as POTUS that is out of character. His past behavior was indicative of his now current and is of his future behavior, all of which was cognitively obvious before, only now it's getting worse.

That is just it, right there.

We have been hearing for years about "Crooked Hillary" and "Cheatin' Obama" so imagine either Hillary or Obama having such an organization dedicated to protecting them to the point of payoffs and hush money for their affairs? Or worse imagine Hillary or Obama saying they have a great relationship with Kim Jong-Un while he fires off dozens of missiles into the Pacific, or defending Putin on the international stage while he does all he does both at home and around the globe.

But at the end of the day what we really have in Trump is a thrice married, multiple time adulterer, questionable business dealings and ties all over the planet, cannot go a single day without lying, narcissistic lunatic as a President and the best "social conservatives" and Republicans can come up with is supporting Trump is better than the alternative.

Then you add in people like Michele Bachmann with the whole "we will in all likelihood never see a more godly, biblical president again in our lifetime" and all you can do is shake your head.
 
What point of corruption are we talking about? CNN has been crying wolf so long I just want to know exactly to what this thread pertains?

Revealed? Isn't that obvious to most of us? :lol:
 
Once again, I can turn to one of my favorite reference works: A Modern Dictionary, Fragmentary Press, 2016, Chelm, IA.

"Partisan, n. A person who is seen by his fellows as a loyal patriot and by the opposition as an abject dupe.

There was a loyal partisan.
Who'd vote the solid row.
When he was told that they were crooks,
His instant response, 'So?'"

[Ed.: The book, unfortunately, is out of print at this time.]

Coming from the party of Hillary Clinton, that is the most laughable post I have seen in quite a while. When you support a candidate that is so despicable and corrupt that she gets beat by Donald Trump, and then bitch about how bad Trump is, thats saying something.

And before you start whining about (She won the popular vote) SHE LOST and it was because of your own party. How do you think Trump took 5 blue states. Republican votes only?

Oh, whats the next excuse coming. (Democrat turn out was horrible) If that is the case, sounds like they didn't like her either. Not even enough to vote for her to beat Trump.

Now your running candidates promising free healthcare at tax payer expense for all Illegals, Decriminalization of Illegals, Gun confiscations, 3rd trimester abortions, the elimination or ICE and DHS? And you are expecting a different result?

There is nothing more loony than a leftist crying about Trump that lost an election to Trump. If the left doesn't get their head out of their asses with these idiotic far left candidates, they are going to see another 4 years of Trump.

The left created this position for Trump. How in the hell does a reality show host win a presidential election? By running against the foulest candidate in the history of this country. Thats how Trump won. And you blame it on some extreme idea like its because of 63 million cultist? Go ahead, keep that thought while Trump wins again.

Did Trump win by some landslide, No. He won because even the independents and Democrats voted for him. They would have voted for Satan himself over Clinton and just maybe they did.

So what do you do about it? You continue the name calling, the fake claims, the fake news, the fake charges and Trump keeps winning over and over. What do you think that is telling this country? It tells them you are wrong over and over. So keep pissing people off, keep blaming your loss on everyone but yourself, keep calling people that voted for Trump vile crap, and see what happens in 2020. You saw what happened in 2016.

Are you going to do the same thing you did in 2016 expecting a different result? Have you even noticed that CNN tanked to the lowest rated cable news provider? Did you ever wonder why?

It is obvious to the majority of us now but I'm speaking specifically to prior to the election in 2015 or any upcoming election. My point is that if we could go back in time to 2015 and if there was a law that required a thorough FBI investigation on every presidential candidate prior to a US election, Trump would have been busted before anyone went to the polls and he would have been eliminated from running because of all his shady dealings with Russia. It would have saved this country a lot of heartache and damage.

How would a candidate who kept a server in their basement with classified government documents, destroying 30,000 emails that were subpoenaed, rigged an election to defeat Sanders, was working behind the scenes to get the questions for debates, and sold uranium to Russia, wiped the servers to destroy evidence, had her husband meet with the head of the DOJ in a secret meeting on the tarmac ever pass an FBI investigation?
 
And not one single crime has been uncovered. Yeah, real corrupt! :lamo

I only read the first sentence of your comment and passed on the rest. If you have been following, you would have known that I have clearly stated in a previous comment that I did NOT support Hillary Clinton for president, I was a Bernie Sanders supporter.

Too bad Hillary torpedoed Bernie. It would have been a much better process.
