I can't imagine a better scenario of going into impeachment proceedings...for the President.

Directing payments to whores and exercising his constitutional right to coordinate his defense with another party.

Oh yeah.

Let's gitter done.

“Was you ever bit by a dead bee?” A drunken sailor asks that curious question

That "drunken sailor" was Walter Brennan, a great actor!

They’ve nothing - not even proof actual crimes were ever committed.

Because if they had been, the fake news media would have let us know about fhrm.

This probe has been a huge waste of resources, time and money... for nothing.

Jeff Flake and the Democrats owe an explanation as to why Mueller deserves special protectio.

He hasn’t nailed ONE person for a real crime related to Russia.

Fake News. No threat.
Pathetic attempts. They really have nothing.
Trump is Mister Clean and the dems just can’t handle that.
Millions of taxpayer dollars in opposition research and they have come up dry.

Assuming Trump is accused of lying under oath I hope at least one republican, when Democrats start screaming impeachment, will ask “How did you vote when Clinton was accused of lying under oath?

Turley’s a nervous Nelly on this one, unless he’s trying to rationalize Mueller’s misbehavior and setting up of straw men.

Dershowitz’ view of the situation so far seems much more realistic than Turley’s. One thing for sure: both guys know a lot more about the legal system than I. I just go by gut instinct and the wisdom I’ve gained over 65 yrs. And a desire for justice.

I don’t see any real legal problems for Trump at this moment if the only serious issue at hand is any culpability in violations of campaign laws. Dershowitz and Jarret argue that paying off people for keeping potentially embarassing info out of the public eye is a normal cost of business for Trump. So from where did the hush money originate? Apparently there might be a problem if funds came from campaign funds, but it sounds as if Cohen went out of his way to launder it. Perhaps there is a money trail that has been established but, if there is, I’ve yet to hear anything about it.

Why did he waste our time with a bee analogy? Imagine if this were Bill Clinton an actual rapist and criminal? They would have long ago demonized Mueller and they would ignore these filings.

Turley is a decent guy...he doesn't come off as a partisan. Still, his first "positive" point he speaks about for the President is the main one, even though he works laboriously afterwards trying to show where Trump has problems.

His first point is enough to put everything else to rest:

...there is a conspicuous absence of evidence of an alleged conspiracy or collusion by the campaign.

'nuf said.

"...new problems for President Trump"

I think the greatest problem for President Trump is the 62,979,879 people who voted for him in 2016, most of whom are now watching politics play out from the sidelines. We all need to stay involved and be active in communicating with congressional representatives.

We should also be working on bringing in new voters to work for the preservation of our republic. If just one in five of the 2016 Trump voters recruited a new supporter we would bury the dems in 2020 with well over 70 million votes.

However, if we just wait for our turn to cast a ballot we are going to let the hateful left roll over us. I encourage everyone to think seriously about the words left for us by Sir Winston Churchill:

“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed;
if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly;
you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival.
There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”

During the 1992 Clinton campaign, the Clinton’s hire a private detective to investigate and smear any woman who claimed to have had an affair with Bill.

Isn’t that a use of money to influence an election?

How is that different than Trump?

So it paying money to whores and having them sign a NDA is a crime, then it is way past time to see the entire list of who in Congress used government money to pay their whores and sign NDAs for sexual harassment.

Wake up!

Paying off an extortionist is not illegal!

Now let's compare this with the Bimbo demolition operation run by Hillary when Bill was running for presideent!

100% criminal, yet the MSFNM has no problem with it.

Let's not be misdirected by fake news!

Yep - half those who want to impeach him were using the “pay the-whore-off” slush fund....
