Rosenstein blasted back with an outright, unqualified denial of both claims

Did I miss something? The only thing I saw was a paring of a non-denial denial.

The poll showing 3/4th plus Americans think Ford’s story isn’t credible was big news.

This can boomerang back on them bigly.

Let’s take them sentence-by-sentence because every sentence contains a directed message:

In other words, lets convince ourselves to not believe the obvious. Instead, let's follow Q and pretend backing down means advancing. What, are we french now? Next thing you know we'll decide we no longer need forward gears in our tanks.

The whole story is fabricated.

For all his flaws, Rosenstein is a lawyer who knows better than anyone that the 25th Amendment would never apply in a case where a sitting president is removed from office against his will by his own cabinet.

How do I know this? Just think about it:

1. In order for a President to be impeached and removed from office, he has to be impeached in the House (by a simple majority) and convicted in the Senate by a two-thirds vote.

2. If the President is removed under the 25th Amendment, the removal is (A) temporary, and (B) requires a two-thirds vote in BOTH houses of Congress.

In other words ... If they wanted to remove President Trump from office it would be much easier to simply impeach him in the House and convict him in the Senate.

Rosenstein knows this better than anyone.

I’m unimpressed by this BS assessment.

It doesn’t help that the woman’s memory of molestation was dredged up in psychotherapy just a few years ago, the shrink has a different recollection, and now the woman is afraid to fly.

And DiFi still hasn’t coughed up the original letter to the GOP.

Why are you so upset about a "distraction" posted in the New York Times?

People who are bothered by distractions should be the first people to AVOID them.

Makes sense to me ......... my previous comment:

If I had to be more specific, I think Rosenstein is getting PLENTY of rope.

I’m upset at a feckless republican congress and an actual America first president that has stood virtually by himself against every force in this country. And I think it is finally taking it’s toll on him.

Then go write a letter to Congress and tell them how upset you are. Turn off the TV and get off the internet if this sh!t bothers you.

And I think it is finally taking it’s toll on him.

I don't. I think he's having the time of his life. He'll be up here at his golf club in New Jersey over the weekend. If history is any indication, you'll see plenty of Twitter posts tomorrow morning to either put your mind at ease or make you laugh your ass off.

“Remember, the President has these documents in-hand, has known for many months exactly what these documents contain, and more importantly who they will embarrass and likely incriminate, including Rosenstein himself in all likelihood.”

False. Trump himself said recently in an interview he has NOT seen (or read) the documents in question. He said he is purposely staying out of it all.

People who keep saying “Trump has seen everything” are calling Trump a liar.

Me? I believe Trump. On this, on his immense disappointment with Sessions, etc.

See tagline.

I totally forgot about part 2. If so the continued gas lighting and ramping up the anti-Trump base, based on loss and fabrication is truly evil and even newer lows. They are pulling at the fabric of unity with the republic, should it too, they should be held accountable. This is all they got, if theses people wake up to the good that is occurring then what is the fate of the NYT’s?

The end doesn’t justify the means, the means are the end.

“The poll showing 3/4th plus Americans think Ford’s story isn’t credible was big news.”

This implies that at least half of *women* didn’t think it was credible, which is also big new, especially considering the likely left-wing bias of the poll.
