What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

[Tamas]

Man, oligarchs in small timer nations like will be so envious. They have only their own citizens to sell down the toilet, the new American oligarchy is strong enough to throw other countries after them as well.

Getting billions for your family's companies in 6 months is nothing compared to getting $150 million for a charity in your name over 15 years.  Nothing!

White House press briefings are audio only now.  Hilarious.

Huh? 

Even Chinese press briefings allow video.

What The Donald doesn't see, The Donald can't get enraged by.  It's the press office managing their goofball boss.  He doesn't have the attention span to listen to audio. 

It's a smart move in pain management.

Republicans, please get rid of these clowns now and give us President Pence. Jesus.

Without a video feed the clusterfucks will see less airplay.

REPENCE SINNERS!

So Donald Jr, in order to "get ahead of the story", releases the email chain setting up the Russia meeting.

The money quote: after being explicitly told that this was part of a Russian government effort to help the Trump campaign, Jr. says "if it's what you say I love it".

Sorry, he's in the mix, too.  Head of the transition team goes down with the rest of the campaign mutts.

Yay for President Ryan.

I expect 'whataboutism' to follow. Something Hillary did that was supposedly worse. You know. The person they wanted to throw into prison.

Russia's "Crown Prosecutor" 

Is the guy writing to Donald Jr. Canadian or something?

Anyhow, how smoking is that gun? I guess the meeting isn't illegal per se, you'd need to establish that some kind of exchange of favors was discussed in it? Not a lawyer.

Crown Prosecutor? Has Putin brought the Romanovs back to power?

LOCK HER UP

Since she apparently committed about 2.5 million felonies that should be easy enough for you guys

I think you are just scared that a trial would reveal she actually never did anything illegal.
