Much of it depends on how the GOP fare in congress for the next 12 months in terms of passing their agenda and/or Trump's agenda. If they fail to pass what they ran on, Trump continues to act like a baby and the Russia investigation continues to erode his support then there's a good chance they will lose the House. The Senate, despite being tighter right now, looks to likely remain GOP since there are some key Dem seats up for reelection next year. But still, gaining one of the two houses would be a massive gain if the Dems can pull it off.

Yep, the article gets into that
Dems are losers. They don't know how to fight dirty like Republicans. They stood by and allowed Republicans to gerrymander and pass a bunch of voter suppressing laws all over the country while Republicans sold out their constituents and state for 30 pieces of silver.
So these famous Kennedy leaks?
If Trump fires Mueller, the Nixon parallel will be complete. And based on the evidence, we know he's dumb enough to do it. At a certain point he'll feel threatened enough to do something drastic, no matter the public reaction. The alternative is likely jail. He's obviously not the type to go down with the ship. He'll sell out who he needs to (even his kids I'd guess) and resign first before letting Mueller & Co expose everything. Then it's just a matter of pinning blame on everyone else for a witch hunt, which is what he's best at.
I guess not... #MAGA right? Weibo belongs to Tencent
The number in 2008 was about 5%, and it has increased steadily since. But it really shot up in the last 2 years, when liberal papers started carrying articles about Bush as a painter, and then the Obamas and then the Clintons publicly embraced him. It is precisely the Dems' fault that the guy almost directly responsible for most of the mess the world is in today, is now popular among the opposition.
It is very telling that independents dislike him more than Democrats do.
What leaks?
I meant the secret documents about Kennedy's death.
It's the classified documents relating to the investigation. It's not yet known what is in them although as @Raoul has been saying, it will be nothing juicy otherwise it would have leaked ages ago.

A significant portion of that 63% probably don't care or actively enjoy him lying. They're a strange bunch.
Just watching the Beeb and there is an American bloke on there saying these files are not going to be released today....there is still some paperwork to be done on them.
They’ve had 25 years to sort this out.....

It's not really progress when they don't give a shit.
Not to mention that the "sometimes" is probably reflective of people who think all politicians tell lies and that the odd distorted fact is just part and parcel of politics.
Yea that too.
You mean the ones that in 1992 it was decided they would be released today unless the sitting President decided it was not in the best interest of the nation to release them?
Based on the decision in 1992 they probably need Trump to sign a few things and he will drag it out for a distraction.

And yet neither is at all willing to give their own personal views on the subject.
Thing is, I mainly do it for a laugh and to provoke a reaction; to balance the tone, play the devil's advocate etc. He's pretty mental, I agree, but instead of harping on about shit like Bloombery, Gates (who I love!), Zuckerburg, etc etc - he got up and did it!
It never reads like that. You always sound provocative from a position of ignorance in this thread. Normally followed by a wave of doubling down.
Massive percentage of that lot always make excuses for pastors and clergy doing naughty (often illegal) things as well.
Hypocrisy gets to me: 'omg Trump is so arrogant he did blah blah blah' but 'oh Hillary is always discriminated against, always conspiracies against her' etc etc.
If I genuinely actually cared about it intensely I'd probably spend wayyy more time debating / fighting!
CNN reporting that Trump personally asked for the gag order on the FBI informant to be lifted.
Not surprised he did this as Fox & other conservative media have repeatedly in the past week or so been mentioning that the FBI informant was under a gag order.

You do realise a ton of people here can't stand Hilary and think she was a bit of a shit candidate, right? Thinking she was better than Trump hardly equates to liking her.
Because we all know that whenever Trump gets called out on anything we can always count on the "but Hillary is.....". Trump is President, Hillary isn't so she has feck all to do with the complete mess he is making of his Presidency.
You can bet your ass if Hillary were president when this Niger thing happened the GOP would be holding hearings immediately and calls for impeachment echoing around the talk radio, Fox News, and Republican landscape.
You all just got 'but Hillary'd
FFS he's literally just openly admitted he's a WUM.
Ignore him. He should be removed from the thread to be honest.

The double standards is just baffling to be honest. They had so little to take Obama on so they had to invent nonsense like Obama=Osama? and all that rage about his birth certificate. And when he did do something wrong, it was stuff like wearing a tan suit which is just totally unacceptable
This is still one of my favourites from this thread:
Ps I'm soon to be a GS alumni myself - not ashamed in thinking we are amongst the brightest on the planet, if I may say so!
The problem is that they are still gonna vote him in 2020 after all.
