Prediction: On July 4, Trump Will Pardon Everyone, Dare Republicans to Hold Him Accountable (Laffer)
The Huffington Post ^ | June 5, 2017 | Paul Abrams, Contributor

The following paints a grim scenario. As you consider it, remember that sociopaths have no empathy. Thus, they have no gut feelings, no inner voice, to guide them about right or wrong, good or bad, wise or unwise. If you try to put yourself in Trump’s shoes, and conclude that you would never, could never, do such things, as a human being or as an American, you are using the wrong yardstick. Trump’s yardsticks are his own malignant narcissism first and Steve Bannon second.

Rubles-to-doughnuts, Steve Bannon is painting this picture for Trump right now:

With the appointment of Robert Mueller as special counsel, the ultimate outcome for Donald Trump and a number of his associates is quite clear. If his investigation proceeds, many will likely go to jail. In the process, Trump’s tax returns will likely reveal him to be far less wealthy than he proclaims, ridden with debts, dependent on foreign loans and thus subject to blackmail and influence.

In the Lester Holt interview, Trump said he fired former FBI Director Comey to stop the Russia investigation. [Because sociopaths lack feelings, there was no inner voice telling him it was wrong]. That’s obstruction of justice in both intent and deed. He then had top-level Russians to the White House, bragged to them about firing Comey, and revealed classified information to them [His malignant narcissm needed to show them he was clever and powerful]. That’s providing aid-and-comfort to enemies of the United States. Treason.....

I guess Paul doesn't realize that the president can declassify anything at any time. President Carter did so with satellite information while I was in the service.

Obama and President Clinton did so numerous times, rather recklessly.

The rats are becoming unhinged.

This is an opinion piece with no sources and no examples or context to back up his empty claims.

Hi.

“President Carter did so with satellite information while I was in the service.”

Yes he did, while I was sitting in a sat uplink site in TU.

I note that a few minutes ago that there are zero comments on HuffPo.

I hypothesize that’s because nobody can figure out what the heck this moron is talking about.

And then he dared meet with Russian diplomats as president. These leftists are the worst idiots imaginable.

In Paul Abrams’ fevered imagination. I hear asphyxiation for erotic thrills can do that to a guy, cuts off the flow of oxygen to the brain. He must do it a lot with his lib pals, or else he does it to himself when he sits down to write; wearing a dog collar to work, perhaps? His visions are cutting into his work time.

HuffPo has steadily devolved to the point that their authors don’t even see the hypocrisy of the self-parody they have become.

A pitiful example of online ‘journalism’.

....The rats are becoming unhinged...

The complete unhinging came in the early morning hours of November 9th, 2016. There’s no “becoming” to it.
