So after 2 years of investigating Russian interference in our elections, Trump says he's ok with breaking the law and doing it again in 2020.

And the fucking Republicans are fucking silent.

They should be ashamed of their cowardice as they barter away our democracy.

What law is that?
The law against knowingly accepting something of value from foreign sources in a federal election campaign.

Let's see it.

Or you can describe what you feel it means.

Oh, fuck. Google.

Heh.  That's funny.  Google.

You and Steve do not know which law he is referring to, nor can you explain exactly how it was violated.  You are flying fucking BLIND!  But acting like someone with 20/10.

Blind?

I already know the law. Local, state and federal Campaign operative, remember?

But I will give you a hint.

federal campaign election law foreign influence

The Huckster is leaving to pursue what will no doubt via her association with the great Donald Trump be a fire career in politics starting with the Governor's mansion in Arkansas.

Conway, however, will be staying by shear force of her boss' will because being able to have his employees politic on taxpayer dollar is not a form of corruption he will be willing to give up going in to 2020.

Don't run away, Needs.  How did Trump break this law?

How many times do you need it explained, kiidcarter8?  If your argument is that it hasn't been demonstrated that Trump personally broke the law, fine, though immaterial as the discussion is regarding his statement just yesterday that he, personally, would.

And not just the campaign finance law but, like I said, the law requiring government officials with a security clearance to disclose the occurrence and nature of contacts with foreign powers.

"Well. the FBI director is wrong"

- Trump

Pretty self explanatory.

He appointed the FBI director... only the best people, right?

Red glitched.

His syphilitic dementia is so hard to watch.

It’s almost as hard to watch as the president’s, who clearly lost his personal Vietnam War at Studio 54.

Trump to Lester Holt: “I did it!”

Trump to George Stephanopoulos:”I’d do it again!”

The GOP don’t give a fuck.

Update from Oberlin. !!!!

Market Awarded $44M in Racism Dispute With Oberlin College

By The Associated Press
June 13, 2019

CLEVELAND — Owners of a market in a famously liberal town were awarded $44 million in damages this week in their lawsuit claiming Oberlin College hurt their business and libeled them in a case some observers said embodied racial hypersensitivity and political correctness run amok.

A jury in Lorain County awarded David Gibson, son Allyn Gibson and Gibson's Bakery, of Oberlin, $33 million in punitive damages Thursday. That comes on top of an award a day earlier of $11 million in compensatory damages.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have spoken," Oberlin College attorney Rachelle Zidar told the jury Thursday before the larger award was announced, according to the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram . "You have sent a profound message. We have heard you. Believe me when I say, 'Colleges across the country have heard you.'"

Previously
(

A Lorain County, Ohio, jury on Friday nuked Oberlin College with an $11 million verdict, finding that the school and its dean of students, Meredith Raimondo, had libeled and harmed local business Gibson’s Bakery over a 2016 incident in which the store had had three shoplifters arrested. The trio, who pled to the charges in 2017, were black Oberlin students who quickly instigated protests — abetted by very willing school officials, acting in their formal roles — claiming Gibson’s was a racist business.
The facts of the story are laid out here https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2019/06/10/oberlin-college-gibsons-bakery-libel-million-racist/?utm_term=.8e16819364c5
This week the second phase of the trial, for punitive damages, could add another $20 million to the judgement against Oberlin.
It should be noted that the three students at the heart of the original altercation admitted guilt and declared there was nothing racist in the actions of the store employees.

Though it is nice to see a right winger embrace the social value of punitive damages.

You are trying to start a war.  I am simply trying to live in a democracy.

We didn't start the fire.

Go look in the mirror.

Go look at Mitch McConnell.

Go look at your president.

Go look at Richard M. Nixon.

We are trying to start a war?

Way to duck responsibility for your party and its actions - actions with intentions well-documented.

Trump says he'll take info from foreign governments and you point your finger at others.

Your denial matches Hamilton's, if not as well developed as Ward's.

"Happy" is always a relative term.

UnAmerican is not.

You support a president who is working against the best interests of the United States.

You do so unabashedly.
