I wonder if Trump feels let down by Pecker.  I imagine Pecker will shrink from testifying in court.  You have to wonder what does Pecker really stand for?

I don't think Pecker will shy from testifying in court.

We the Conservative voters in Australia should be wearing MAGA hats..."Make Australia Great Again" [It's Australia that needs making great again not America].

The Liberal Party [Conservatives] is on the brink of extinction;

http://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/the-liberal-party-is-teetering-on-the-brink-of-extinction/ar-BBMjSm8?li=AAgfYrC&OCID=AVRES000

Mathias Cormann attempted to deliver the death blow. Without relish he wielded his blade, a distraught, reluctant Brutus to the Cassius from Queensland. But in its current state the Liberal Party cannot even organise an assassination, let alone run the country.

#####

That will all change if the Liberal Party [Turnbull is gone] elects Peter Dutton as its leader and new Prime Minister at 1-45pm today...3 hrs from now.

We the Right people don't want "Turnbull in a skirt" [Julie Bishop]...'Obama-like'.
We don't want Scott Morrison either..."weak".
We want "Dutton"!   'Tough on border security/turning back the boats'...'Abbott-like'.

My apologies to Chuck Schumer.

You make a mistake and therefore I am dumb?

Typical Red "logic."

So, this time, instead of my being dumb, it's Chuck Schumer's mistake.

Your inability to simply admit that there is no relevant Roger Cohen would be breathtaking, were it not for the fact that you have refused to admit so many simple mistakes in the past.

It's not a matter of dumb, Red. It's a matter of your being pigheaded beyond pigheadedness.

The WaPo went to unusual lengths with their Fact Checker this time around.

They finally labeled President Trump what everybody here knows he is: a liar.

Its almost funny reading Red's post reference a piece of paper which he has no respect for.

His loathing of the real value of the Constitution and the democracy it was designed to protect is palpable.

Roger Cohen’s guilty plea must be under seal, unlike Michael Cohen’s very public guilty plea.

That or all Jewish names must sound the same to a real crack-ass cracker.

=================

Now that trump has thrown off his almost human mask and gone full MS13, it will be interesting to see how many republicans stick around long enough to get tatted into the gang as well.

I understood what you wrote.

Chuck is right and you are wrong. Chuck is not discussing impeachment. He's discussing the possibility of a case involving President Trump being brought and landing in the Supreme Court, where the Court would have to weigh in, in a manner akin to jurors on a civil suit. "Can a POTUS be subpoenaed?" or "Can the President break the law?" or what have you.

But your reference to ROGER Cohen was flat wrong and you cannot simply admit it.

The headline seems wrong, but somebody in the GOP surely blocked this bipartisan legislation to protect our elections.
