I don't care about the counter scandal in the sense that I think it is a complete non-story. I care only if it is effectively used to discredit the investigation and get Mueller fired. FOX News is far too comfortable aiding an authoritarian style leader, and it's pretty freaky to watch them jump through hoops they do to protect their leader.

They've gone full on conservative propaganda.

Their written reporting isn't always consrvative propaganda, but, what they air is.

Well, yes.

Why do you not care? They are not creating this. they are reporting it.

Do you wonder why other outlets, apparently, are NOT reporting this?

Isn't the counter scandal just to draw attention from the Mueller investigation. As to Trump, me thinks he does protest too much.

It seems to me, the purpose to draw attention TO the Muldoon investigation.
 
Winston said:
methinks the goal of the counter scandal is to give the Trump administration a reason to fire Mueller. Discredit the FBI as Democrat shills and then they have to "clean house" for the "good of the nation"

And the Trump base is ready and willing to believe that anything that endangers Trump is a Democrat ploy. So, they don't really have their work cut out for them. Problem is that's only about 25% of the electorate, the rest of the electorate still has more than two brain cells to rub together.

So, then, you seem to have missed the whole story on this?

It is a non-story, designed to give the Trump administration permission to obstruct justice.

It is exhibit A. of fake news.

Just garbage they sell to the idiots who are their base. A base, I must say, which is now down to below 30% of the voting population. Lost cause.

Yup. Looks like a another Wave election coming up for the Dems.

What will this be? The fourth in a row that will sweep the Dems into power in both Houses and across the country?

I wonder if Trumps' base understands that Mueller is a Republican & has been forever? I wonder if Trumps' base understands that Mueller has more integrity within one onethousandth of one of his pinky fingernails than Trump has within his complete Earth sized Sun ego penis balloon?

Even Fox viewers' disapprove of Trump has risen. The counterscandal is a device to justify firing Mueller since it's a sacking offence if he had done what they claim. It's nonsense of course, but that doesn't make it less true to the credulous remaining support. I'm concerned about the counterscandal, but only so far as it's a useful lie.

Which of the reported facts make you believe that Muldoon did anything?

It sounds like the reported facts are in regard to Strzok.
 
cuban smokes said:
oh, yeah, right: and Trump is what type of 'Republican?' .............. one that is destroying the party ................
Click to expand...

Exactly.

He could have declared for either nomination.

He probably accurately discerned that the Republican primaries were less rigged.
 
Rosie1 said:
OMG, you're joking, right. And even if the Russian collusion were found to be true, it would be fine with you, not at all treasonous...it's all good...Right..
Click to expand...

There was all kinds of collusion.

The DNC was the chief actor in most of it.

Obama now says he knew about the Russian interference in the election during the election, but kept it a secret.

Trump did NOT know about it.

If Trump was an actor in this little drama, you'd almost think he'd have known about it.
 
Chomsky said:
I could care less about the Clinton's, they're has-beens. But if they're dirty - yeah throw them in the can.

However I do care very much about the orange one, because he's running the country. Everything I've seen so far, indicates he needs to be removed from power. He's an extremely dangerous man, and I believe he and his family will likely be going to jail, either during or after his term in office, whether that be by federal or state charges.

I'm just sick and tied of both sides using negative personal attacks to gain politically. Right now I don't give one hoot about whether the FBI gave Clinton a pass or the Russian scandal or Trump's women or any other politicians women. Everyone is so busy trying to destroy someone else personally, everyone has forgot about governing.

It's seems neither side, political party, all elected officials, both parties political leadership or anyone else gives a hoot about this country as a whole. Only about destroying their political opponents via personal attacks. Substance, ideas, solutions to our problems, all forgotten. Let me get some women to attack the other side. We as a nation right now deserve to be destroyed from within via what is happening today. Screw both parties and everyone in them.

Nope. I used the same example. When that guy was caught on tape at CNN talking about the ratings and how he thought the Russian collusion story was fake news, even though he was a nobody at the network who the right tried to portray as someone really important, he is still allowed to have that opinion. As long as Mueller doesn't pull a Comey, and shows us the proof once he declares his findings and charges, all of this won't matter and Mueller knows this. He is playing the long game Trump doesn't know how to do.
Click to expand...


Right, he's the idiot. Doesn't understand how to play the game.

He's saying all those stupid things. You know where he's saying those things? In the White House.

You know where Hillary is saying all the crap she's saying? On a book tour.

22 regulations stopped for every one regulation initiated. Every stock exchange closed at a record high, AGAIN, on Friday. More than 5 trillion dollars of wealth created for the American people since the election.

When will the indoctrinated stop believing the lies and start looking at the real world?

Are you going to keep believing the Dems or your own lyin' eyes.

First of all, it seems you guys on the left are easily 'distracted' and unable to focus on more than one issue at a time. Second, you are willing to believe any and every accusation against Trump or those around him no matter how absurd or no matter how little evidence there is to support it. Yet when it comes to the possibility of a democratic official being corrupt or biased, you don't believe a word of it. Earth to Winston: power corrupts those who wield it regardless of party. But ask yourself the following question. If these charges were against people at the Trump justice department and Trump loyalists at the FBI, would you be so quick to dismiss it as nothing?

That (bolded above) is precisely what resist, resist, resist is all about, and yes, both parties do that when they lack the ability to pass laws (make changes) that they prefer. The idea seems to be that it is better to do nothing than to let them have their policies/priorities enacted into law. Meanwhile we get "compromises" that simply expand all federal spending by some random percentage using omnibus spending bills laden with the pork required to get them passed.

Exactly. This is one of the main reasons that folks, more moderate people who are tired of the shenanigans of both major parties have left them. Since 2006 independents have climbed from 30% of the electorate to 44% today. People want a government that works, not one in which each party when in power just tries to stop or as you said, resist the other. Except those hard core members of both parties, most folks want the two parties to work together for the betterment of the country, not just their political party.

It is a scary thing. With their slipping, they have abandoned all pretext of being a news organization in favor of a organization that manufactures news. Just I believed that the people were smart and would see through Trump (there was no way he would be elected), I again think that the viewers of Fox News are smart enough to see through their antics...... but I was wrong about Trump.

Perhaps you've noticed how the phony uranium 'scandal' isn't hear about any longer? They need a new manufactured, ginned up 'issue' to use.

This entire hike up Bull**** Mountain is about elections in 2018. The republicans in the House and Senate don't give a rip if Mueller takes down Trump, but they need to be able to appeal to his base in 2018 and say, "See? We TRIED to defend him!"
