My guess: He wants immunity, then make his statements which happen to only incriminate him and exonerate everyone else. His price as trustworthy consultant for governments goes up. :P

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Shouldn't Derspeiss be telling us it's all over for Trump now?

I did a few days ago.  Go find that post and read it :)

Anti-Hillary means not wanting to lose again in 2020.

Well I don't think there is any danger of her ever being nominated again.

There isn't really a reason to reply to citizen k and his witty political posts.

It remains that Hillary was a terrible candidate.

Seems like she was the ideal dem candidate from your perspective.

Indeed. Who else could Trump beat?

Actually, that would be Maxine Waters.

Mike Flynn should ask for immunity in that this is a witch hunt (excuse for big election loss), by media & Dems, of historic proportion!

That's a problem - neither the Democratic Party nor the media can give him immunity.

Hoo-boy.  Now those would have been some fun debates.  Would have just ended up with each one telling the other to go to hell over & over.

I don't think I have ever heard a statement from Waters where I understood what the hell she was trying to say.  There's incoherent, and then there is Waters-level incoherent.  She makes Trump sound like Obama.

I don't quite understand this sentence.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Yeah. I mean I can parse the sentiment expressed, which breaks down to [this thing that's happening is okay by me, really] because [the Democrats and the media are bad] + [I'm a big winner]

But in terms of sentence structure or rhetoric, the tweet is nonsensical.

The Donald is sort of like a college freshman - he writes his way in on one idea and leave the sentence on another.  There may also be some other changes in the middle too.
