Given the fact that Flynn was communicating back and forth with the transition team while chatting with Russia, I can't help but wonder if Pence is properly insulated. | ||

They get to bring all their money back 0 strings attached, plus they can go back to stashing it for another sweeter holiday in the future then both parties can point at each other for screwing it up and the corps laugh all the way to the bank.

Its really not that much to come to these broad conclusions guys. Sure, but why would you fix bad border security but not deporting illegal immigrants? That's like solving a leaky boat by keeping the water on the inside. | ||

But goddamn, don’t be such a drama queen about daily fluctuations in the Dow. It just hit 24k for the first time ever so a quick drop after months of rapid growth isn’t really a worry yet. Wait till something actually frightening happens rather than being a doomsayer all day. | ||

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 Trump has already chosen to tap and inflame his voter base. I don't really see how deciding not to deport him would change anything. If anything choosing to not deport him would cause Trump and his followers to go crazy even more. | ||

Danglars already showed he thought Trump lying his face off about a tax bill meant to help himself and his billionaire peers by taking advantage of less fortunate hard working Americans was acceptable. I doubt Trump talking to Russia through proxies is going to mean much. So then we arrive at the same problem we had before this all started. Who are the 13+ Republican Senators that sac their job to impeach Trump? | ||

Maybe there where valid reasons for contacting the rusians? Trump directing him is willful collusion rather then a dumb unwilling recipient. Yes its a big deal. | ||
