I wonder how much time our president is thinking about this raid versus thinking about Syria.

AAAAAH! This is where the liberals' history of calling all Republicans "racists" comes back to bite you in the butt.
Reagan was called a racist constantly by the left. It was said that "Reagan made his followers comfortable with their racism". Yeah! Remember that? Liberals have been playing the race card all my life. What's changed is that now we have all these new cards in the demonization deck: homophobia, xenophobia, transphobia, etc.
And yes, the racist accusations have escalated to white supremacist and Nazi, but that's a small jump compared to all the new accusations.
Reagan was 70 years old in 1981 (the year of his first year as President). It was a RARE white 70 year old in 1981 who wasn't racist. Reagan was not that rare.
No one has been accused of being racist as much as Donald Trump, because in a world of gradation, he is at the top of the list. His actions show it to be true. No hiding for The Orange One.
* Charged with housing discrimination
* Says Mexicans are rapists
* Impugns judge with Mexican heritage even though he's an American from Indiana.
* Equates White Supremacists with protesters of white supremacy.
* Asks April Ryan to set up a meeting with the NAACP for him when she asks him a question (I mean, WOW!). Ignorance at best there.
* Puts Ben Carson in charge of HUD. There is NO reason for Carson to be in charge of that Department. Why did Trump do it? Because Carson is black and "U" stands for Urban. Believe it. Know it. Accept it.
* Trump told Don Lemon that he (Trump) is the least racist person he (Lemon) had ever talked to. Methinks he doth protest too much.
* Any time a person of color does anything criminal, especially if it is terrorism-related, he is quick to denounce their whole group and talk of more restrictions on people of that group, etc., but when a white person does it, we need to look at mental health issues (not guns of course...well, except for the small bit of time he thought maybe we should before he greased it up and bent over so the NRA could give him a good rogering).
We had been slowly (and I do mean slowly) losing our racist attitudes in this country since Martin Luther King Jr., and then along comes loud-mouthed, foul-mouthed, racist Donald Trump, and he turns the light on for racists and emboldens them to say their crap out loud. Racism is shameful, idiotic, and ignorant. People who think that way should be shamed to the point of letting their stupid ideas die with them. Donald Trump has given them a voice. He is the king racist...because of what he does and the position he is in. No other President is even close.
It will be a bloodbath from Repukes this election.

What are the chances he is able to point to Syria on a map?

Wait. I thought there was something called attorney/client privilege. This is why Hillary labelled most of her assistants "lawyers", so that they could not be compelled to testify against her.
I imagine that Trump has lots of lawyers. If Cohen is an important one, meaning that he has records for all Trump's business dealings, then Trump should fire Mueller now and put an end to this, because the whole purpose is destroy everyone who has ever done business with Trump to force Trump to resign.
If this is just about a Stormy Daniels payoff, then it will help Trump no matter how it turns out.

Read what he did. Yes, he was a HUGE part of it. Or, look away and claim it didn't happen. He screwed a lot of peoples live, but you're far too blind to see the truth. Started in 2007?

How uneducated are you guys?
Study the causes of the Great Recession. To the extent that Obama played any role at all, it was tiny.
The push for home ownership was something that Democrats and Republicans pushed hard on throughout the government and throughout society at large. There was a myth that home ownership was the key to economic stability and security. It was even a huge part of George W. Bush's domestic economic policy. Remember his term, "ownership society"? That's what this was all about.
But subprime mortgages were not the only cause. The gutting of the SEC's enforcement arm was a cause. Deregulation of the banks was a proximate cause as well.
And don't forget that none of this would have happened without the massive fraud, greed, and corruption that was rampant throughout the system. The corruption spanned all the way from homebuyers to loan originators to bond brokers to ratings agencies. And I know I've left out a lot of other entities who were on the take.
If you blame Obama for the Great Recession, you look pretty dumb.
Your lack of intelligence is only preceded by your shear ignorance. Barack had a lot to do with that, but liberals are too busy being liberals to see it.
Like others have said, I love to when take the time to post long boring rants. It's hilarious. Politics surely isn't your bag.

I am not surprised that it has come to this, but this is a good step. There are a bunch of steps still necessary that will happen.
Kushner will be indicted.
Trump Jr. will be indicted.
Roger Stone will be indicted.
Likely some others too before the big fish is caught.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.

Let me learn you something - The privilege is rendered moot when communications between an attorney and client are used to further a crime.
Also, there is no privilege if the attorney acted in a way with the client in a way that was NOT as a lawyer.
Pretty good evidence that something is up. Time perhaps.
I wonder if Michael Cohen had the pee tape...

http://money.cnn.com/2018/04/09/news/economy/deficits/index.htmlThe "king of debt" has the country on the same dismal trajectory that Trump's companies have taken 6 times in the past. The only difference is that when the US fails, there isn't going to be anyone to bail us out.
LOL!!! What a joke! The GOP are so fiscally irresponsible and dishonest it’s laughable. They have consistently over the last 20 years railed on about the national debt. Yet, every time they are in power (they have now controlled all branches of government for a total of ~10 years since 2000) they FIRST cut taxes—promising they will “get to spending cuts” soon....and then never get to those spending cuts. Why? Because they know they can’t actually cut the things they say they want to cut because—despite what their voters (predominately old white people, aka boomers) say—those programs they say they want to cut are the very programs their voters will scream bloody murder if they actually cut them.
Their entire political platform is based on lies. Neither GOP voters or GOP politicians want to cut domestic spending if it involves them personally—they just want to cut everyone else’s benefits.
We should immediately stop making any social security or Medicare payments for anyone born between 1946-1964 and take a 20 year break from paying out of these programs so that the people that wind up fixing the mess the Boomers are 100% responsible for have some benefit at the end of all of this....
When the history of this period is written, Robert Mueller will go down as an American Hero, whose integrity, fearlessness and commitment to the Rule of law will serve as an example to us all. And Flagpole, you are the hero of this thread. You were right and dominated all of these disgusting Repukes. throughout
When is there ever a breaking news story that says that Trump is a great guy?
Never.
Because he isn't.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.

Right. Like the illegal raid on Manafort's house that was given the retro-active OK from Rosenstein after many conservative commentators pointed out that Mueller didn't have authority to make that raid. That was the beginning of the end, right? Oh wait. It was just another perjury trap. So far there were no crimes until this Mueller persecution came along.
If it's just Stormy, then it's going nowhere. Your head might explode, but Americans won't care.
We've already done this. It's "all about sex" right? Even if Trump perjures himself, he still has to remain President, just like good ole Bill did. Anything else would be unfair.
Having your personal lawyer's office get raided by the FBI typically isn't a good look.

Hmmm. One guy is reported to be 100% bad, the other 100% good. Well SHAZAYAM!!! What are the chances?!
I can't believe you don't see the media bias. That's the reason OK. The MSM is 100% Democrat/liberal. They are ALL on your side. That's the answer to this seeming impossible coincidence. Got it?

Hey Mr. Disco at least you can claim that you were “right” in that Trump is being held accountable when Hitlery wouldn’t have been. Right? I mean that justifies you voting for a mentally unstable, philandering, immature, pedophile, pervert with a low IQ that has decided to exploded the national debt for a short term gain as is the typical GOP play-book. Great use of your vote.
