My mistake. Donald Trump is officially off the hook from the grand jury. Mueller actually lavished him with praise and I think all of us will be instructed to follow suit very soon. I need to go get prepared, maybe buy an apology card at Dollar Store:

They all lie. Trump is being held accountable. Obama was not. Hillary would not have been.
You don't know what the word means. The Democrats lost seats in the midterm elections during Obama's tenure and Obama was reelected in 2012. Bill Clinton was impeached for lying about a consensual affair so if there had been any possible impeachable offense committed by Obama, the GOP would have taken it all the way.

The only difference is that Trump is not using the Federal government as a weapon against me. I call that a win.
He's not not using it as a weapon against me directly. But that's not the standard I use. You will tolerate a president breaking the law if the president is doing as you please. A principled person would want someone held accountable for breaking the law even if that person were breaking the law to that person's benefit.

We all know what would have happened if Obama had been treated this way and had been run out of office. Violent revolution with destruction and death on a nationwide scale. Do any of you deny this?
Are any of you thinking about what might happen if Trump gets run out of office? Do you care?
Does it ever occur to you that it would be better to back off for the sake of the country?
No doubt, if Obama had been "run out of office" you would indeed have seen some really pissed off people -- and you probably would have seen riots in various urban areas. But note that Obama was attacked relentlessly by the fox news sorts, not to mention the upsurging tea party folks, the radio talking heads, etc. -- and yet how many retaliatory tweets or offensive one liners in speeches do you remember from his eight years in office? How many people did he fire or force to resign in the first six months of his presidency? As I recall, he stepped into office with the US military in two different shooting wars, with a true recession and a failed housing market -- how often did he lose his cool?
The point I'm making is that Obama was smart and politic enough to stay out of his own way. Conversely, Trump is by nature confrontational. His instinct is to attack. He practically begs people to respond in kind.
Certainly, Trump backers would be really upset if congress were to actually impeach him -- and that is why a republican house and senate won't impeach him unless they truly see no other way to make headway. Repos don't want to lose folks like you, so they won't go to impeachment until and unless they really feel they have a compelling case against him.
But when Trump continues to rant and rave in his inimitable petulant style, do you wonder that he evokes a strong response?
Secret Service vacates Trump Tower post in lease dispute with president’s company
The Secret Service moved its command post from a unit one floor below the president’s apartment to a trailer on the sidewalk, more than 50 floors below.

$145 million donation from a guy with ties to Russian mining interests!!! What for? "looked into"?
Can you read first and then post? $131 million of the $145 million total (90.3%) from the Uranium One donors came from one guy, who sold all his interest in Uranium One in 2007, when Condoleeza Rice was Secretary of State. He had no financial interest in the company when the transaction, that Clinton had no ability to approve or deny, went through. Show me some objective source that proves I'm wrong.

Where's the grand jury? Where's the 8 months of screeching headlines? The whole Clinton Foundation thing was just a money laundering outfit to cover up pay-for-play in the case that Hillary won the election. Everyone knows this.
You believe this because you don't live in the real world.

C'mon man. Admit that this is waaaay worse than anything we see going on with Trump. Where is the intellectual integrity. You have to admit this is really, really bad. But you won't, therefore Trump.
You are no intellectual integrity at all. You will willfully ignore anything that runs contrary to your ideology. You harped and harped about alleged ethics and legal violations during Obama's tenure (which the GOP controlling Congress investigated) but now that Trump is in the White House, the ends justify the means and to hell with the Constitution and federal law.
From the prior link:
The details of the dispute between the Trump Organization and the Secret Service were not clear Thursday. Two people familiar with the discussions said the sticking points included the price and other conditions of the lease.
It is so expensive protecting this president when everything is a bill he makes the government pay.

The uranium remained in the United States. 90% of the $145 million the Clinton Foundation received from Uranium One investors came from one person, Frank Giustra, who sold his entire stake in the company in 2007, more than a year and a half before Clinton became Secretary of State.
But you're unable to be objective so you won't read this.
Do tell and I will apologize for unfair standards I've used.

Does it make no difference to you that we sold uranium to the Russians at the same time someone very close to the buyer donated $145 million to Hillary's Foundation?.
You're so concerned with this uranium deal but you can't even gather basic facts about it.
$131 million of that $145 million was donated to the Clinton Foundation by one man who had sold all his interest in Uranium One in 2007. When was Clinton serving as Secretary of State? When was the uranium sold, in a deal that Clinton couldn't approve or void?

"It’s very possible that I could be the first presidential candidate to run and make money on it,†Trump said.

No one wanted to challenge anything Obama did for fear of being called a racist. There were many major scandals under Obama which came and went without any fanfare. He was unaccountable and that caused a lot of problems.
Is that why Mitch McConnell said their goal was to make Obama a one-term president? We had extensive investigations and hearings on the IRS and Benghazi because the GOP was afraid of being called racist?
You have said that the GOP "rolled over" for Obama. They approved immigration reform? New gun restrictions? Merrick Garland?
You don't know how to be objective or you don't care.
