So that kinda is a big success for trump,his die hard followers where already pretty happy with him and now the donor class should also be satisfied. No matter what you think of trump,he did deliver for the people who will profit from this.
Maybe the attitude of the media towards trump will change a little bit now. Not to much,just a little bit.
Like if media keep bashing trump while quiet a few people are happy with him,then they only push more people away from themselves and into less traditional news sources.

i'd question whether it qualifies as trump delivering it, rather than the congressfolk.
his die hard followers are happy with him even if he actively hurts them, so that doesn't count for much.
the media bashes trump because he deserves to be bashed (well, more because it earns them money really).

Panic! ha ha. The ticker cant keep up.

Is it that bad if trump did direct him? it kinda is separate from Flynn lying about it. Maybe there where valid reasons for contacting the rusians?

You would prefer to pay $30K+/yr and force him to stay in the US?

I didn't know Danglers was now willing to subsidize illegal immigrants. Quite a turn of heart.

Sure, but those are two separate issues. If border security is bad then that's a reason to improve border security, not to keep illegal immigrants in the country.

It would be something if they would get rid of trump right after passing the tax bill. Its probably a very remote possibility but still it did cross my mind.
Or maybe it is used to pressure the republicans who still have doubts about the bill "better pass it now because we wont get another shot"
I dunno,usa politics is weird these days.

I'd be happy to be wrong but your job isn't the only thing I'd be worried about.

A lot of people really like Trump.

Ok, keep in mind trump is gonna tap into the anger and frustration around this case for 2020 for his own personal gain. He's going to really abuse this girl's death to ignite his base and brand everyone who disagrees with him as "weak", to which the dems will fall into quite easily

Yeah, as I expected. They had enough to put little boy Flynn in prison for a long time and he had no choice but to protect his family.

Nah, any impeachment process works incredibly slowly (and this doesn't seem to be a huge watershed as far as initiating that process would go) and in the incredibly unlikely event of a Trump resignation Pence is just as, if not more, likely to pass a bill they want passed.

Sure, but they'll do the same regardless. Trump's base don't need facts. This is the guy who tweets a video of two non Muslim dutch guys fighting and blames Muslims in the UK.

We should not start perverting justice to appease these people.
