They will never see the corruption. Their media will make it look like the corruption is Republican spin on the FBI just doing their job.

But it was nice that a couple responders were able to admit it. As one said, the Democratic Party used to be for elevating the working man (of any color). This was good, because it was based on economics/class, and not accusatory name-calling. Now, the identity aspect is top priority. We all must categorize ourselves, then vote accordingly. It’s so stupid.
There also happens to be a strong correlation between what the Party has emphasized and what results in the highest ratings for the mainstream media outlets. What’s going to get people riled up more- arguing over whether or not the president is racist... or debating the in-depth details of a tax plan strategy?
The Democratic Party strongly supports things like less corporate money/influence in politics, improved union/worker rights, universal healthcare access, paid family leave, higher minimum wages, more infrastructure spending, a more equitable/progressive revenue system, more emphasis higher education/worker training programs, and rural broadband access. Are you honestly not aware of this?
These are all broad, primarily class-based economic policies and it's well-known that they are included in the Democratic Party Platform. Hillary Clinton stumped for all of them. In fact, she spent far, far more time talking about these issues than "identity politics", the "liberal" media just rarely covered it (filming empty podiums before Trump's speeches was somehow considered better for ratings).
It's completely disingenuous to imply that Democrats ignored the tax bill to focus on Trump's racism. Democrats were the only ones the wanted to debate the in-depth details of the tax plan! The 1986 reform effort took 18 months and Republicans passed the Tax Cuts and Deficits Act this time around in a matter of weeks. They did it without any Democratic input and they tried to prevent any kind of real analysis. When that failed, they just resorted to outright lying about what their plan would do and implied that nonpartisan entities like the CBO were just in the tank for Democrats. All Trump had to say is that he knows taxes better than the world's smartest CPA, and that was analysis enough for his supporters.
Hillary Clinton would not have accomplished jack sh*t, just like she did NOTHING as a senator "from" New York , or Sec State (except get those men killed in Benghazi). She would be spending her days and nights drunk and schmoozing around with Jeff Bezos, Barbara Streisand, and Oprah. That crazy old goat wouldn't have been elected to town council without riding Slick Willie's coat-tails.

Got a little something just for you.
As your beloved, crooked, treasonous FBI agent Strzok said, "There's no big there there." Even he knew back then that is all a big "nothing burger," to quote your equally beloved Van Jones of CNN.
Keep crying about "Muh Russia," though.
Dear Hypocritical Dems:
Put your money where your mouth is. The Trump tax cuts are totally voluntary and super easy to opt out of.
If Trump isn't your president and you like your old tax rates you can keep em!
First subtract your last regular paycheck of 2017's net pay from the net pay on your most recent paycheck. This is your tax cut*
You can write a check payable to the Bureau of the Fiscal Service for this amount, and, in the memo section, notate that it's a gift to reduce the debt held by the public.
Mail your check to:
Attn Dept G
Bureau of the Fiscal Service
P. O. Box 2188
Parkersburg, WV 26106-2188
Easy as pie.
*It's possible that you also got a "Trump Bump" raise from your employer as they are now more prosperous and can share more with you. This should also be included in the amount of your check.

But all was fine with the FBI when Comey pushed President Camacho across the finish line in 2016 right. Republicans have nothing left to justify Trump in the WH except for conspiracy theories.

That would be great, but most liberals don’t pay federal taxes.

Hundreds of companies are doing exactly that because of Trump's tax cut. We are watching trickle down in action.

The tax plan has actually led to a net LOSS in jobs. Trickle down in action.
A professor arguing that yoga is some kind of racism. Talks about "culture".
This complex socio-political reality of the U.S. is key to understanding how the cultural void of white society is intimately mixed with white supremacy, capitalism, and globalization; and it is within these oppressive structures that cultural appropriation and the yoga industrial complex flourishes. People are grasping for something to belong and connect to outside of the empty and shallow societal anchors of materialism and consumerism, which do not nourish or empower people in any sort of meaningful or sustainable way. People are searching for these things without even understanding why there is a void in the first place. Few white people make the connection between their attraction to yoga and the cultural loss their ancestors and relatives experienced when they bought into white dominant culture in order to access resources. Many Europeans did not fully grasp what they were giving up and what they were investing in, yet many did, and most who arrived on these shores chose to stay here rather than return to their home country. Few white people make the connection between their love of yoga and their desire and ability to access traditions from historically oppressed communities of color.
Looks like we found another culturalist, but this one's on the left.

Because there is no corruption as it relates to Russiagate and the special counsel's investigation. Actually, the corruption is Nunes and company trying to hide the truth.
Again Trumpers, why are you trusting a faux-conservative in Trump and not a patriot and Republican in Mueller???
Every intelligence agency in the U.S. and most of our allies have all agreed that Russia interfered in our election. Every single one of them. Do you honestly think all got together to make up sh*t on Trump and his associates???
Pathetic attempt to distract from reality.
Mueller time is fast approaching.
Country over party.
Dems all over the news doing cartwheels to try to spin the incoming Memo. The FISA abuses are obvious, the gross politicization of intelligence agencies is obvious, the collusion to produce the 'Russia Dossier' for millions of $$ is obvious. The Dems will continue to deny of course, but the people in the middle, will come to Trump's side. Following the State of the Union address tonight, the Dems and loonie leftists on this board will be frothing. Looking forward to it! ;)

Just had a discussion on what the "people in the middle" would think about this. I made the case that the middle will hear the Dems version, my friend said he thought the middle would see the corruption. If it's even somewhere in the middle it's bad news for the Democrat corruption machine that's been operating in DC for a long time now.
Why hasn't pencil necked Adam Schiff leaked HIS memo yet....That's what I can't figure out....

Guys, you’re being a bit verbose in your whining/coping lately. And of course, you miss the core reason Trump was able to even exist as a candidate:
The Left - years ago - decided they were going to emphasize minority identity politics at the national level. It was a sound strategy at first, as demographic trends seemed to be working in their favor if they embraced this strategy. In doing so however, it snowballed out of control and became THE ONLY strategy (see 2016 election). Everything else takes a backseat. The opposition is racist (this goes back to at least 2000), so you must vote with us to defeat the evil club of white men.
As 2015 rolled around and you were still patting yourself on the back for getting an interracial man into the White House, it was worse than ever before. You had a woman lined up that had been carefully brought along for two decades. Her token Senate seat was amusing. Wow- such experience! “What a policy wonk she was!” The arrogance was unbelievable. “She would hardly have to campaign” (and she didn’t). “Women aren’t going to abandon their own.” “She looks like me, so I must vote for her”, they assumed women would think.
But you guys over played your hand. The resentment resulting from roughly half the country from being called racist (and sexist, at opportune times) all the time was at astonishingly high levels. The accusers have been so brainwashed and self-righteous, that they don’t realize how ridiculous their actions seem to most of the country. (And I’m not saying this is enough for a lot of Dems to abandon the party; there are other reasons that particular groups - teachers, artists, etc - won’t ever leave the Dem party). Left wing identity politics is their religion. And they’ve become religious fanatics.
Bottom line- The country never united under Obama. It’s not all his fault. The Republicans were in DEFCON mode in 2010 like the Dems are now, and refused to cooperate on much. But if the country had come together, Trump wouldn’t have been able to win. He came along at the right time, with a few basic themes, and shoved all the identity politics and PC culture down the Left’s (including much of the MSM) throats. Everything else is secondary.
And as we know from post-election data, he didn’t do too shabby in parts of the country that surprised even the smartest of Liberals. He won the suburbs and upper middle class. He wasn’t supposed to win that. He won white women! WHAT?! How could that have happened?! He won white college graduates. Mind. Blown. He even got 30% if the Hispanic vote! That’s right, 30% of the group that the Left/MSM first painted as the absolute target of candidate Trump, voted for him. I recall “polls” showing him in the 10% range in 2015-2016. Black men went for him at 13%, the highest in at least three decades to vote Republican. WHAT is going on here?!
You guys need to look in the mirror and admit you’ve been swept up in the strategy of one party in a two party system. You’re pawns. You’re often fighting boogeymen that don’t deserve to be the core of your faith.
As a lifelong Democrat, I have to agree with most of this. The party has left me. Not that I’ll ever be conservative, but our party needs reform if I’m ever going to be a part of it again. We are broken.
The candidates that were presented in 2016 were the same despicable person. They just happened to be on opposite sides of the aisle.
Sure Trenton, why would you ever be a conservative, you can't get free things that way and you'll have to work to earn it. You have my pity.
Just donated a $1 to Trump campaign to get my name on the livestream. I put my name down as Stormy Daniels. What are the chances they actually run the name? If I knew for sure it would make it on the livestream I would consider spending a $100 in $1 increments.
Or, gasp, the real corruption is with Trump and the other associates besides the 4 already indicted that are soon to be indicted. You would think that Trump and conservatives would have learned by now that trying to make someone else out to be the bogey man doesn't work. Even Paul Ryan is cautioning against making more of this whole "memo" thing that it is. And if PR takes his head out of DT's fat a hole for more than 3 seconds you know something's not right. I love the fact that conservatives have become anti law enforcement and Russian apologists since Trump was elected. Hilarious. And of course, sad.
