If you're going to have a president who is the executive and runs government, there must be ways of designing the whole system that are better than what the US is doing.
Trump/Russia/SDNY investigation

Clueless as to what this is about. Care to explain?
Thanks. Actually read it before but didn't note the journalist.
Few years back when I used to see posts or memes on how the world is not controlled by people at power and its actually the big corporates, I used to laugh at them as conspiracy nuts. But I think they may be not be wrong , I suppose. Ultimately, people in power have to be subservient to people who put them there. So no matter how the system is designed, people with money will always find a way to control it.
Facepalm. How can a president not know the basics of government?

They do. Here's a retort from a good buddy of mine when I called him out on his nonsense about being "middle of the road, reading both left and right news" as I often observed him getting his info from such reputable websites as Breitbart, Drudge, etc.
--Stephenie Miller & NorMAN GoldMAN are the two that come to mind immediately. CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, and Huffpo are some that come to mind immediately. You were not with me 24/7, even when you stayed in Leroy's house. The Drudgereport is a phenomenal one-stop site for aggregating news, although it is all right leaning. Additionally, when I go read one article I almost always end up being intrigued enough to go do my own research on other sites, including those from other points of view. I listened to the entire confirmation hearing after work......long..... and I determined she had something happen to her BUT I also determined she was not 100% sure WHO it was. The Senate report confirms what I determined, not any bias. Women need to be believed BUT you & I both know first-hand women lie. In this case, when it comes to two women being proven they have lied, o am now full in that Dr. Ford was lying thru her teeth that it WAS JUSTICE Kavanaugh.--
Douchey is reacting in a way as if one had heard their father/hero was involved in something nefarious and is struggling with cognitive dissonance.
In the mind of many Republican voters, as reinforced from right-wing echo chambers, they truly believe the DNC is full of evil communist, socialist, fascist people hellbent on destroying the nation. So it convinces the individual that he/she is protecting the American way of life by voting in the saintly Republicans.
Something about to drop?

Sounds like Flake is aligning with the Dems to block the AG. I expect there will be another one or two. This is Trumps last hand, if it doesn’t work, the House will be owned by the Dems by the time he gets a senate that will pass it.

Walter Shaub for President
So....the US has a Non-Senate confirmed President. BAD!
Imagine the senate going through the partisan process of selecting a prosecutor?
This man is an imbecile.

His rhetoric only gives the base and the more "normal" GOP supporters additional ammo to dig into their beliefs.
Well I was expecting Don jr to be indicted by now. Why’s Mueller taking so long?
Didn’t Rosenstein call a conference and announce the unsealing of all the indictments so far...?
I'm obviously biased against Trump but it's difficult to ignore how guilty he acts, even without the new AG drama, and how bigly desperate he's starting to sound. He's always been crying about Mueller but he's turned it up to 11 now. Maybe it's because of what's potentially comng for Don Jr but I doubt that's the only thing he's worried about, there's just too many people who probably know too many things that have been spilling the beans to Mueller over the past few months for him to not be extremely worried.
Far more than anything criminal, I think Trump’s fear is being exposed for the absolute fraud that he is. That he’s nothing more than a money laundering phoney and his wealth is nothing like he claims.
Criminal charges he will brush off and fight. Expose that his wealth is basically fabricated and over leveraged by shadey banks and oligarchs who are more interested in payment in kind than payment back.
He knows. He's just giving his rabid supporters more fuel to think the 'big bad swamp' is working against him. He's a malicious toad.
Isn't it normally Friday when things happen? This will be the first Friday since the midterms.
Forgot it was Friday today. My mind is all mixed up. Thought it was Thursday.
I've truly missed Felony friday, it's my favorite show.
I wonder if he'd rather go to jail as a presumed billionaire or stay a free man but everyone would know he was a fraud?
Being able to see Ivanka on a daily basis would probably be the thing that made him not go for the former in a heartbeat.

The Republicans know Trump isn’t looking to fire him. He wants to suck the air out the investigation and cripple it to the point nothing gets done.
I might kill myself if I ever have to hear a speech of her.
Trump doesn't want to fire him ffs. He wants to sabotage the investigation.
Raw Story said:
Trump's acting attorney general involved in firm that scammed veterans out of life savings
- Matthew Whitaker was paid advisory board member for WPM
- Veteran: ‘I spent the money on a dream. I lost everything’
The guy on the left of that show is so fecking annoying, he screams "I hate myself" to me
"But the president has lawyers" -- Yeah, with such legal maestros like Cohen , how can he ever put a foot wrong ?
It's such a Murdoch move to have Fluffy McBoobs on the show's panel, just to keep male viewers interested.
Whitteker's appointment is not constitutional.
Neither Rosenstein nor Mueller have to accept his authority.
So what are they going to do?
Mueller simply sends his report to the Dems.

Isn't firing Sessions & hiring Whitaker obstruction of justice?
Are they McRealBoobs though?
I wonder if/when they ever release his tax returns and they show he paid little to no taxes - would his base be ok with that?
Of course Trump would counter that he (his organization and employees) paid millions in taxes.
It’s such a lot of mis-direction that it’s frustrating for most people that his base can be so easily assuaged.
There’s not one ounce of integrity in that administration. If there was they’d resign en masse in protest.

Base wouldn’t care as they are completely hypnotized and brainwashed to where nothing bad he does would change their minds (most of them at least). The law would care as would Congress, which is where most of his exposure would be.
