Recall that Elliot Broidy and Sean Hannity were Michael Cohen's other 'clients'. Clients Cohen only took on at the request of Trump to 'fix' their sex lives.

Let's not spread false rumors here. I know of no credible evidence that Sean Hannity ever cheated on his wife.

Just something that required the bigliest level of secrecy. Hmmmm . . . . maybe such as inviting a female Fox commentator to his hotel room and having her fired because she said no. Or something like that.

Again, we don't know that the story is true.

It might be interesting to find out why Hannity was a client of Cohen. After all, you go to a fixer when you need something fixed.

But there is no reason to jump to the conclusion that it had anything to do with sex. Hannity really isn't known as the type. I think there would be more smoke if there was any fire.

Guys who are not know as "the type" are often the ones their very surprised wives learn are cheating on them.

Will be interesting to see if we ever find out what his connection to Cohen is. The biggest possibilities are financial or sexual misdeeds. Cohen wasn't known as someone who provided legitimate legal help.

I think one of the more amusing thoughts regarding this election and President Trump is an ovulation is that every time a liberal whines and cries about the mean stuff President Trump says, or how incompetent they think he is, they are also reminding them selves of how terrible of job they did at finding a candidate who could beat him. If Trump is such an inapt leader and such and obviously terrible choice, it doesn't say much about the Democratic Party that they couldn't even mount a successful campaign against him.

Don't trouble yourself with non sequitur arguments like "but, but, but.....muh popular vote!" I suspect that someone is just itching to throw that one out there, so I figured I'd head it off and help you realize what an ineffective and non-starter argument that is.

at least we can still honestly say we voted AGAINST putting the biggest imbecile in the history of the Presidency into office.

So strange to be proud of voting in the biggest moron to lead a Western industrial power in modern history. Is that even up for debate?

congrats ...you won....and did immense damage to the county.

hope you enjoy patting yourself on the back....you sound like a toddler proud of taking a dump on the sofa.

"Look mom I made a Poo!"

Epic!

hahahahhahahaahaha

Sarah Sanders - "The President was not involved in any wrong doing, was not involved in any collusion."

Hmm. Nice. Before there was no collusion and no one associated with his campaign was involved in any collusion.

Guess Trump is throwing Don Jr. under a second bus and then of course all those who colluded (conspired) with Russia.

The talking points will change even more in the next few weeks. Started as “No collusion” between anyone involved with Trump campaign and Russia to “Trump himself was not involved in collusion with Russia” to—what is coming now—“Collusion is not a crime”. This last one has been floated for a few months by Giuliani and Al from Nantucket but you’ll start to hear it more and more from the Trump administration.

The question will be is their truly evidence for conspiracy charges (a crime) or is their only evidence of “collusion”—which actually (unfortunately) is not strictly a crime? We’ll see.

Of course, as per usual, there will also be a ton of “whataboutism” from Trump supporters (as we see on LRC) about the Clintons—which is completely irrelevant.

If you voted for Trump—you voted for a Unethical piece of human garbage who truly doesn’t care about this country but you may not be a moron. If you still support Trump today you are a moron. Fact!

Gonna have to disagree. Voting for one's own self-interest does not make one a moron.

The clown has been, currently is, and will always be Flagpole.

Like I said, October proved to be yet another wild ride in the new culture of outrage and despair. But rules are rules, and another month must be added to Flagpole's EPIC Flagpole streak.

Mueller will not be coming.

The clown steadfastly remains Flagpole.

Current status of Flagpole's Flagpole Streak: 33+ months

We're now into December 2018 folks, so you know what that means. Yep, time to add another month to Flagpole’s unprecedented Epic Flagpole streak.

The Midterms were obviously the bulk of the news for the month (especially since some election inexplicably dragged on for WEEKS- so stupid). Since about a month after Trumps’ epic upset of HRC we had been hearing about an impending Blue Wave. Despite the incessant pushing of the narrative by the MSM and record-breaking spending from external sources (remember back when the Left wanted to reign in campaign spending?- LOL!!) though, it was clear from the polling leading up to November that the impact would be less than desired. I believe I started watching the primetime coverage around 8:00PM that evening.....and by 9:00PM, the talking heads at CNN and MSNBC were already clearly disheartened and were saying “well, it’s clear there won’t be the Blue Wave we were hoping for.”

Just for reference, here are some numbers from past midterms considered real “Waves”:

1994, Clinton loses 54 House seats and loses 8 Senate seats.

2010, Obama loses 63 House seats and loses 7 Senate seats.

2018, Trump loses 40? House seats and GAINS 2 senate seats, strengthening the majority in the Senate. Most talking heads (from both sides) acknowledge that he single-handedly kept the damage to a minimum by energetically rallying his base- something you just do not see out of the typical President.

The persistent delaying and prolonging of everything by the Dems is getting ridiculous. They were clearly trying to execute something extremely shady in Florida and Georgia. Has Abrams conceded yet? LOL. Remember when Trump didn’t answer the question in 2016 about conceding directly and the press starting flipping out about him trying to “undermine democracy?!” LOL!! The hypocrisy just keeps on flowing here, month after month. So much fun.

So Trump finally dropped the hammer on Sessions immediately after the elections. Great move. After threatening to de-classify and un-redact all of the FBI/Russia hoax documents and having his “discussion” with Rosenstein last month, you notice how Rod has STFU? He’s in it deep, too.

Notable Fake News from the month:

Manafort and Assange meetings in 2013, 2015 and 2016. It was from the Guardian, and not surprisingly the sources were “anonymous.” The story mentions the dossier, which continues to lose credibility as time goes on. Both parties vehemently deny these two have ever met. Wikileaks laid down a $1M bet (and “their editor’s head”). The Guardian immediately began backpeddling, changing the headline, caveating several areas, etc. It was classic Trump-era MSM TDS at work.

Equally as unprofessional and shameful, NPR flat out lied about the testimony of Don Jr and Cohen when Cohen’s “blockbuster” guilty plea hit the wires this week. Blockbuster is in quotes because the story went from “SEE- COLLUSION!!” in the hours afterward, to the reality that Cohen was just off by 5 months with regard to the last communication about the potential plan for a Trump Tower in Moscow (which had been thrown around for years). NPR claimed that Don Jr’s testimony was that no communication took place in 2016, and that it differed from Cohen’s new claim. The problem is they either intentionally or idiotically (up to you) took his answers regarding a completely different deal and applied them as answers to Trump Tower 2016 questions. Don Jr's testimony did in fact state that discussions went into 2016 regarding Trump Tower in Moscow. After being called out by multiple right-leaning outlets only, NPR admitted it botched the story. But in typical Trump-era MSM TDS fashion, they did not issue an apology. Here’s how they characterized what had happened:

“An earlier version of this report mis-characterized an answer Donald Trump Jr gave to Senate investigators in 2017 about the prospective projects his family was negotiating with people in Moscow.”

That is absolutely NOT what happened though. It should have read something more like this: “Our lead reporter wrongly associated an answer Don Jr gave regarding a completely different deal with questioning about a deal Cohen was developing.”

This is Fake News, people. And journalists at these outlets demand respect and admiration, huh? LOL. But of course, in the era of today’s social media, only about…..I don’t know…..a million or so people posted “guilty!” assertions prior to the outlets correcting their Fake News stories. How many individuals do you think also went back on Twitter and admitted their stupidity as well? Right. Doesn’t matter now. Objective met.

Oh, and remember how the caravan wasn’t an invasion? And these people were all just women and children trying to flee violence (from several countries away, of course)? I think we’ve all now seen the video evidence of the attempted rush at the border, no? And read the stories and estimates provided by DHS regarding the percentage of criminals within of the caravan? "600 of the 10,000." Mexico has already arrested 100 known criminals along the way too. Why would anyone disregard this reality? Strange.

Oh, and the Left’s one time savior, Michael Avenatti, was arrested on domestic abuse charges. Then, he was called out by his sweetheart Stormy for “Speaking on my behalf without my approval.” He sued Trump for defamation against Stormy’s wishes. LOL- Avenatti is such a little twirp.

So another month is in the books, and we still have zero collusion.

Mueller has nothing.

The clown continues to be Flagpole.

Current status of Flagpole's Flagpole Streak: 34+ months

Tiny was not asked about conceding. He was asked if he would accept the results. He said he would only accept the results if he won.

Abrams did accept the results as she stated in her post-election speech. She refused to use the word "concede", but she said many times that she accepted the results as legal and binding. There was no hypocrisy at all.

He hasn't been quiet at all. Rosenstein just gave an important speech about the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Tiny and his family probably all violated that law. So Rod may have been taking a shot over the bow.

Also Rosenstein appears to be still in charge of the Mueller investigation. Reports say that Wittaker was notified about, but did not have a hand in, Cohen's recent guilty plea. Rosenstein handled it.

No, it keeps gaining credibility. The dossier is one of the amazing stories within the story. This dossier is just raw intelligence. And raw intelligence usually has a lot of holes in it and is disproven (either in whole or in part) over time.

But even after all these months there is not a single major assertion in the dossier that has turned out to be false.

You are out of your mind. And Tiny should be ashamed for sending troops to defend against a few disgruntled immigrants.

If ICE can't handle rock-throwers then they really do need to be disbanded.

The immigration problem is getting worse, especially in Europe where resentment towards incoming and currently settled refugees is growing very quickly. Furthermore, growth in Europe is slowing down and the US is likely to follow by Q2 or Q3 of 2019. Once unemployment rises and economies get a little tighter, I think we'll have a full blow humanitarian crisis on our hands. I mean, more so than we already do.

ICE is pure POS. That is the result of directions from Trump and Stephen Miller (the abhorrent racist who looks like the reincarnation of Joseph Gobbles.) They are refusing to let people apply for asylum. They are prosing claims really, really slowly, and "losing" paperwork that has been filled out. That is the "new" solution to keeping them all out. Force them to wait for months, likely years. But . . . . if they are asylum seekers from one of Trump's preferred countries (Norway; Saudi) they can apply and be let in.

The USA has some 300,000,000 immigrants.

Forcing all immigrants out would cause a major collapse of the USA and European economies. Who's going to clean the toilets, butcher the livestock, pick the fruit and vegetables, and pick up the trash?

A few dozen men armed with rocks trying to rush the border would have been considered a full scale invasion by rational people in 20,000 BC.

Hmmmmm . . .

If 300,000,000 are deported then I am going to guess that there wouldn't be too many toilets needing cleaning or trash needing to be picked up.
