Gary,

Now you are applying the rule of law unequally. Let's imagine Hillary Clinton lying to the FBI. Lock her up!!! Oh, wait, no.... Her conviction was unjust. Sympathy for Libby means sympathy for whatever bogeyman you imagine. You can't have it both ways. I know you want to, but, you can't.

Do realize you are randomly applying the "it's unimportant. It has nothing to do with XYZ." excuse, again? Let me help you be outraged, "It's unimportant Clinton used a non State Department email server. It has nothing to do with her. " See how that works?

Your move.

He is paid what he is worth: ZERO.

Hey now. Gary has worth. He's at least a real human who comprehends and replies to what others post like an actual human. Every once in a while, he provides some insight into the Briedbard hive mind.

The Trumpbots are bigly boring as compared to Gary.

Tax revenues for 2018 so far are at RECORD LEVELS. Not a drop, an INCREASE. The money comes from economic growth, something you Libs don't seem to comprehend. However, spending 120% of those revenues on entitlements will unfortunately never be addressed- both parties are at fault.

Are you sure about that?

Key line:

"Last month, the federal government spent roughly $371 billion, up $7 billion from February 2017. Tax receipts, meanwhile, fell to $156 billion from $172 billion a year earlier. "

I'm not arguing that tax cuts can't create economic growth, but personally, if tax revenue increased in the first month that tax rates were reduced, I would be suspicious.

Make up your mind. Either I should be paid for what I do or not. You guys on the left need to coordinate your smears so you don't contradict yourselves.

You can not be underpaid if you provide zero value.

You need to provide more value.

I'll tell you what. When a Democrat gets thrown in jail on a perjury trap when the people doing the questioning already KNEW who committed the crime! and it had NOTHING to do with Libby, then we'll talk about injustice, double standards, and the rule of law. That's what happened to Libby but you didn't know that and you never will.

You guys on the left simply can not see how bad things are in the real world, and you are right, I shouldn't be paid anything because I have failed to help anyone see it.

The problem with living your whole lives in the maze is that someday the monster that got Libby will be at your door. You will be accused of doing something you have not done. You will scream your innocence but it won't matter because the other maze dwellers will have already condemned you based on lies. You will say "But can't you see I'm innocent!?" ... and it will be at that point that it will occur to you "No. They can't see I'm innocent. All they see is the lie. The truth will not help me. Disco was right."

If this sounds far fetched you might want to give Bret Weinstein from Evergreen College a call to find out what the real world feels like to a maze dweller who finally has to confront it.

No. I'm trying to get you out of the liberal media rat maze so that you can see what the real world looks like. If you could see the real world you would know that this method of taking down Trump is going to make things worse for everyone. I am trying to help you, but you can't see it.

Awww. Gary I care about you too! It's a lovefest!

I'm missing the part where the Rule of Law is applied to even the President is "worse for everybody."

Again, if Trump is so innocent, then an investigation will conclude the same. Right? What am I missing?

This isn't about Cohen's parking tickets. He is being investigated for really bad crimes.

You've got it backwards. In a banana republic, the president's lawyer is never investigated. Associates of the president are above the law. That's not how we do things in America.

If Trump is ousted before the 2020 election, expect record low voter turnout.

I've made mistakes before, but IMO this will not be the case at all.

Mike Pence is a True Believer™, and would pursue seriously some of the things that DJT has been lukewarm about. In a post-Trump honeymoon (aka sigh-of-relief period), the Congress-savvy Pence would be able to get a lot of his agenda accomplished.

And people would either love that, or hate it--either way, I think they'd be energized for voting on him in 2020.

[BTW I'm not the first one, even on this thread, to see Pence as potentially vastly more dangerous than Trump.]

Of course Democrats break the law, just like Republicans. As another poster keeps posting from time to time, there are numerous ongoing investigations and prosecutions of Democrats. So I don't know where you are getting your information from.

Although, we almost had an intelligent civil discussion earlier. It almost happened. I saw several heads popping out of the maze and focusing on the real world. We were THAT close, and then the hatred and distrust took over again and the moment was gone.

Still, major progress!

perjury trap

Let's imagine the Right's favorite bogeyman, Hillary Clinton, lies so poorly to the FBI, that there are felony perjury charges. She does such a bad job at lying, Hillary gets to join the convicted felons club for a few years. Because that's what happened to Libby.

Let's imagine a President uses her executive powers to wipe away Hillary's felony conviction. I'll use your excuse, "Poor dear... It was a perjury trap." That's all good, right? Right? If you get to use an excuse, then your favorite bogeyman of the hour/day gets to use it too.

More importantly, how does a perjury trap work? Be specific and do it in plain English because I'm not a lawyer.

Don't run off and try to distract with some other story.

Losing American jobs is part of Trump's save American jobs plan. LOL . . . .

Oh God, I'm tired of the liberal spin. Even I have limits. If you think that the rules of justice are being applied to the Trump administration the same way they were applied to the Obama administration then you are hopelessly lost in the maze.

Ha Ha. Ho Ho.

I would call you funny and perhaps clever if your posts were not so inane and frankly stupid.

DAMN YOU DEEP STATE!!!

True, but definitely out of context. Here are the revenues for the last several years:

•FY 2019 (est.) - $3.42 trillion

•FY 2018 (est.) - $3.34 trillion

•FY 2017 - $3.32 trillion.

•FY 2016 - $3.27 trillion.

•FY 2015 - $3.25 trillion.

•FY 2014 - $3.02 trillion.

•FY 2013 - $2.77 trillion.

•FY 2012 - $2.45 trillion.

•FY 2011 - $2.30 trillion.

•FY 2010 - $2.16 trillion.

NOTE that we're only halfway through fiscal year 2018, so the figures (by the OMB, by the way) for this year and next are of course only estimates.

NOTE that FY 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016, all under Obama (whom I didn't vote for), also set all-time records.

NOTE ALSO that although the economy has been expanding at a fairly steady rate for several years, FY 2018 projects to be nearly flat in terms of dollar revenues; and a *decrease* in terms of percentage of GDP.

NOTE FINALLY that the OMB's estimates were as of February this year, and did not anticipate any additional cooling of the economy that a trade war would cause. (Trade wars--both in theory and in history--*always* are a drag on participating economies.)

"However, spending 120% of those revenues on entitlements will unfortunately never be addressed- both parties are at fault. " With this I definitely concur!

Oh sorry, what I meant to say was:

I really don't have any way to answer your question. In fact, I think that your question is a perjury trap - even though I don't really know what a perjury trap is (some way to force you to lie? Anti-truth serum?).

Anyway, since I've got nothing I'll go with, hmmmm, let me see . . .

Deep state?

The maze?

Deep state?

The maze?

That's it, I'll go with "the maze" this time with a hint of "deep state".

There, I fixed that for you.

DG,

The bottom line is that Trump is going down because he's a lawless President, and we are a Rule of Law nation.

Your view on all of this is off base.

Robert Mueller will be considered one of the biggest patriots in our Nation's history. My grandchildren will read about him in their history classes.

I really might have to get a full back tattoo of Robert Mueller when this whole case is decided. I have never before wanted a tattoo...this might be the one though.

It's going to be a real challenge to turn that "President Hillary 2016" tattoo into a Mueller tattoo, but I think it's worth trying.

Nope. No Hillary tattoo for me. The only one I have is "Shorty's Truckstop and Diner, Chattanooga, Tennessee".
