He's dodging it because he knows that he did post that he would give everyone an "I told you so" when he predicted Kavanaugh would not be confirmed.

If you think that I'm arguing that 100% of the people in this country illegally are good, honest, non-criminal people, you're wrong. Like with any group, most are good but there are always some bad. It's not too hard to find a lot of information about the crime rate in the immigrant community, which appears to be lower than it is in the country at large.
But you do prove what I think is a real failure by Trump when it comes to how he's handled illegal immigration for the last two years. Instead of focusing on the "bad hombres" as he said he would, he's got ICE wasting their time tracking down non-criminals who really just want to earn some money to support themselves and their family. And the bad guys get a free pass.
A fine post. My additions:
1) Donald Trump has done more to bring and keep illegal immigrants here than probably anyone who posts here.
2) The "bad hombres" are mostly in the White House, Trump being the leader of them. He has no moral authority to lecture anyone on any thing.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.

I don't it is even up for debate that he gave the "I told you so" about Kavanaugh. It's just another in a long line of fails.
Perhaps, by luck, one day he will be right about something. It will likely be when he starts thinking with his head and not his heart.
How's it hanging, Flagpole.
Well...I guess...it is ALWAYS hanging these days.

He's dodging it because he's trying to be cute. Re: Kavanaugh, he didn't say he'd give the biggest "I told you so," he just said "I told you so."
He got caught in ANOTHER one of his fails and he's just trying to be cute, When someone presented the evidence that he did say "I told you so" about Kavanaugh he would proclaim victory by saying that he was right - he didn't say he'd give the "biggest" "I told you so." He would say that he just said "I told you so."
Bottom line: He's an idiot who is just playing games with irrelevant wording. He's knows he got it wrong, but is just trying to "trap" someone.

Ha! I have long ago admitted I was wrong about Kavanaugh. Big deal. This thread is about Trump, and my promise of the Biggest I Told You So in the history of Lestrun (which was the question asked) was made regarding Trump.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.

What if Mueller has a heart attack or gets in a car crash or something and dies before the report? He obviously won't be coming then, so would such a scenario mean that you're wrong about that? Or do you count Mueller's team and his work up until now as a sort of abstract embodiment of Mueller? Just trying to help you cover all bases
Mueller is smart, he’s stashed the case within a lot of different defendants, jurisdictions, plea deals. One of his moves seems to be offering good plea deals, mining them for evidence, and proving that the defendant lied. Then it starts all over with a worse deal & more evidence!

Flagpole will make up whatever excuse he needs to try an weasel out of it.
It's the Flagpole way.

Actually, the question that was asked was: " Are you stating that you did not say you would give an i told you so when Kavanaugh would not be confirmed?"

What we do know is that Flagpole won't be coming (sic).

Just a lie that no national elected democrat favors open borders. There IS a border crisis. Even Schumer and Pelosi have voted for border wall funding in the past.

Flagpole,
You have been outed as a complete buffoon. You've literally had your a$$ handed to you over and over again on this thread alone, not to mention the hundreds of threads over the past 15 or so years. There's an old saying, "even a broken clock is right twice a day". Sorry to say that when it comes to Flagpole it's "a clock so defective it only runs 23 hours and 59 minutes slow".
I can't tell what motivates you. Is it lack of humility, narcissism, need for attention, validation, ego? I could say hatred of Trump, but you were just as insufferable long before Trump was an issue. Not that it matters though, you keep plodding along like a child throwing a tantrum, reason, evidence and logic do not apply to Flagpole. Just that ever present 'need to be heard'.
I have been posting on letsrun since 04 or so and Flagpole has stood out as a smug and flaming troll, an egotistical clown of epic proportion. Some things never change.
Flame on loser!

Yes, of course OLD SMTC... is rather dull and terribly dishonest. But that does not excuse intellectual laziness (or worse - dishonesty) on the part of those who disagree with him.
If the topic is crime (or violent crime) and illegal immigration then the numbers to look at are the crime rate/violent crime rates among illegal immigrants - NOT among immigrants as a whole.
Don't be like Trump. Please stick to truth.

THAT is solid thinking, and I DO appreciate the thought behind it.
Technically I have said (at least twice I think), "Mueller is coming". That is true and has been every time I have said that.
I have said more than once that anything borne of Mueller's investigation he still gets credit for (stuff sent to the SDNY or any other DOJ office for example). I didn't specifically mention the condition you laid out there, but I do believe it would be fair to say he is still coming (or he arrived) if the work he oversaw comes to a conclusion after he is dead. I'm sure someone would not agree with that just to try to make me wrong (which I won't be), but to get it on the record, I will state that in that case, it would still be so.
You have to go with the basic meaning of any prediction. I bring up space aliens as an extreme example of something completely ridiculous that might happen so as to cover all bases. I mean, if it were sea monsters instead of space aliens that made Trump a free man or made him win a second term, would I be wrong? I suppose technically, but everyone and their brother would know that I was really right...same is true about my 2016 election prediction. While I DID give the caveat that he can't be declared to have won if there was cheating (or space aliens made us vote for him), some here don't believe me because I think I only wrote it twice while I wrote that he wouldn't win many times, and they believe I would lie about something like that, which I would never do. It should really be a given though that if someone wins as the result of cheating that they then didn't really win. We take Olympic gold medals away from cheaters, and they are stricken from the books as winners. Same should be true with Presidents...and that was an analogy I made in that 2016 election thread which unfortunately has been deleted.
So, there are an innumerable number of possibilities that could happen, and there is no way I could possibly account for all of them. Sans something fantastical, or his death, or illegal activity, Donald Trump will not finish his term, and he will spend time in prison eventually. That's the prediction.

So in other words, he uses his investigation to create crimes.
