Republicans were always more right wing of that and today they're even farther right. I mean I get it that it's popular for conservatives to regard Clinton Obama and anything west of Genghis Khan as a pajama clad AK47 packing commie but you and I both know that's just retarded partisanship talking and always has been. You know fricken' well what more right-wing means and its not just less communist. Which is like a mild headache compared to the brain-wasting effects of the left-wing derangement syndrome you people suffer from. Who cares? All that has nothing to do with Trump. Your Trump Derangement Syndrome is showing again. You’re not making any sense at all. Quote

WestCanMan Posted February 13, 2020 Report Posted February 13, 2020 11 hours ago, eyeball said: Okay, what about operatives involved in the coup to overthrow Trump? It was essentially a "soft coup", and actual crimes were involved. Now it's case of "how much damage will be done by completely destroying the reputation of the FBI and one of the two main political parties, vs how much damage was actually done to the democracy". The IG report was quick to label the "17 serious errors & omissions" as random and unbiased, even though every single person n the face of the earth knows that is completely impossible. If you flip a coin 17 times there's only 1 chance in 130,000 that you'll get all heads, but the members of the FBI had better than a 50% chance of getting a lot of those things right after 3 years of investigations. If you look back in history you'll find examples of leniency even by monarchs who didn't lack any power or authority. Quote Enemies of the American people - "enemies domestic" no less - with the intent to illegally overthrow the lawful election of a president. Grab a brain? Excuse me but am I missing something here or are you just avoiding something? You're missing the point of how much damage will be done to the most important institutions in the country if they go down that road. It's not a win-win. Everyone has their goals and their objectives. Trump is choosing moving the country forward vs all-out retribution which will set the country back. Quote How many subpoenas and arrests have been issued/made? We'll see what eventually happens with McCabe, Comey, Strzok and some others. No rush. All is well. Quote And you're twisting in the wind. No, you're just asking stupid questions. The adults are busy moving fwd. Being productive. What you're asking for is ludicrous.

Title: Quote After slamming prosecutors and judge He never slammed anyone, he talked about the bogus things they did. That's totally on point. Quote Just hours later, the Justice Department abandoned the recommendation of its own prosecutors. The move sent shockwaves through Washington and prompted all four prosecutors to quit the case, with one leaving the department altogether. OOOH, SHOCKWAVES! Guess what? The JD didn't have to accept the "recommendations" of it's prosecutors. And then four idiots quit. See? The swamp is draining itself. Unlike our budget, which isn't balancing itself. Awesomeness!

Ummmm, this is just your idiotic bullshit. The entire Russian collusion farcevestigation was lawless, a witch hunt, a hoax, and there was plenty of actual, serious corruption revealed in the IG report. If Trump had sent a bogus dossier to the FBI on Biden and there were 17 serious errors and omissions you'd have your impeachment unanimously.

Under his leadership the USA's power and standing in the world has certainly increased. So if we measure leadership by these results, everything's alright Jack. Quote
