Deliberately missing the point? It’s not about having affairs and making hush money payments. It’s about clearly violating well established campaign finance statutes. That is the law of the land. It’s legality is not in question as Cohen is going to jail for the crime I speak of. It is a crime, and people go to jail for crimes. It’s simple really. You also seem to be ignoring the fact that (now 800) democrat and republican former federal prosecutors have opined that trump would clearly be already charged with felony obstruction if he wasn’t protected by DOJ rules about indicting the president. That is a crime, and people go to jail for crimes. You can try to make breaking the law sound trivial or somehow acceptable, but it’s not ok in modern societies. Once again Stirlingsays, your viewpoint is your own right, but now 800 former federal prosecutors disagree with you. That fact should probably make you think twice, don’t you think? Edited by Maine Eagle (10 May 2019 1.57am) Missing the point? I thought I'd made myself clear. Of course I agree that Trump had this brass paid, but the guy did it intelligently without record and through proxy. Of course he did it....but like I say, for this to be considered a 'crime' is a complete nonsense.....legalese waffle. I'm happy that they can't get rid of him for this, whatever the rule circumstance....because I don't consider that stuff as important. When it comes to 'campaign violations' and dodgy money floating about I consider both main parties as bad as each other.

So after digesting all this hyperbolic waffle... The Meuller Report cleared Trump of Russia collusion. Fact. No it didn't. It said there was insufficient evidence to prosecute which is very different. For me that is more like the "not proven" verdict in Scotland than a "not guilty" one. Alongside that the ongoing cases, details of which were redacted, need to be considered. There is a great deal of speculation on what they involve, some of it well informed by circumstantial evidence and leaks. The most interesting for me is the probability that one involves Roger Stone, Wikileaks, Assange and Russian interference. If, as seems likely, some of the Trump family are also involved then the collusion ball remains very much in play. It will just be prosecuted at State level and outside of "Executive Privilege". You are unable to back up any of your smears with evidence. All the back up anyone needs is available by reading Trump's Twitter and the responses to his tweets. It's all there, in open view. If you don't read it then you should. If you cannot see that it provides the evidence needed to prove Trump to be totally unsuited to be POTUS then I feel sorry for you. Can you explain how Trump "is a clear and present danger to the USA, and the rest of the world"? Oh please! Threatening Iran and thus increasing the chances of a hot war in the middle east that could then escalate. Starting trade wars with a variety of countries, but most dangerously China, that could damage economies, raise tensions and ultimately threaten stability. Break hard won international agreements, particularly on action on climate change, that threaten to destabilise efforts to ensure that the whole world works together to understand what needs to be done to prepare for it and counter the effects. Leadership of the biggest economy on the planet involves much more than being the manager of a big sports team, or being on a TV reality game . It's not just about "winning at all costs". It requires a subtle grasp of how to steer the whole world towards a successful and peaceful future. Trump is the proverbial "bull in a china shop" as a POTUS. Maybe you should take some TDS pills also. Repeating Trump's attempts at slurs adds nothing to anything, except perhaps questions about those who do it. So add yourself to a list that includes Fox, Breitbart and InfoWars. It's not company that I would want to be included in.
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

Mods should change the title to "The Donald Trump thread" for the sake of pedantry. I can think of some other titles too which would be amusing. Who wants to reverse a democratic result? I think you clicked on the wrong thread, Hrolf, this aint Brexit pal. No reversal is possible, only a correction in 2020. Then why don't you just stop whining and wait until 2020? And by 'correction' I presume you mean a President who will be happy to bend to minority interests and allow the whole of Mexico to settle in the US.

It’s not up to you, or I, Stirlingsays, to decide what is, and what is not a crime. If you get nicked for murder, you cannot appeal to the judge with “I don’t consider this a crime, your honor”. Laws are written down and are not negotiable. I don’t understand your position here. You cannot decide from Wisbech what is and is not a crime in America old chap. It simply doesn’t work that way. Campaign finance laws are actually very important with the way political campaigns are financed here. One thing they ensure is that no hostile foreign nation can interfere in a US election by funding one candidate or another. Obviously the Russians sought other ways to help Trump. But even forgetting the illegal campaign finance violations, over 800 bi partisan former federal prosecutors believe Trump would be criminally charged with obstruction if he was not protected by DOJ guidelines stating a sitting president cannot be charged. 800 former prosecutors. Democrats....Republicans.....stating that Trump clearly broke the law multiple times. I guess you think all 800 (including hundreds of registered republicans) are the “deep state never trumpers on the grassy knoll”?

So the law is the law and it isn't up to us to decide what is a crime? Ok, then I guess you support the ban on transgenders not joining the Army now and the other stuff Trump has brought in....because the law is the law. I'll have my opinion on what I regard as valid in terms of persecuting a president and that's about it. You can waffle on in your way over how you think Trump is this or that and I'll treat each claim on its merits. I don't buy that the Russians had any more effect on the elections for Trump than the Saudis had for Clinton. She had far more money and far more favourable media coverage. The Democrats are losers who can't accept that their core message doesn't appeal to the majority of working class white people.....and they are right because any working class white person voting for this version of the Democrats is an idiot. I don't know about this 800 thing you keep referring to. If Trump's done something serious then I guess I'll hear about it. Until then, I'll regard it as the partizan waffle I've come across up to now. Edited by Stirlingsays (10 May 2019 9.31pm)

Edited by Stirlingsays (10 May 2019 9.31pm) Whether or not I support a given law, one is best served to obey them lest they be thrown in jail. Campaign finance laws are not remotely contentious so comparing them to transgender topics is pretty nonsensical. One mans persecution is another mans oversight, and therein lies the rub. It would be nice to know who holds financial sway over trump considering he lost over 1 billion dollars in the 80s/90s and couldn’t get financing via American banks, and had to go with Deutsche Bank and God knows who else. DB has a well earned reputation for money laundering and other illegal acts. Incorrect comparison again, Stirlingsays. If you would actually read the Mueller report and not take the right wing media version, you would see details of a systematic, far reaching and widespread social media campaign. Comparing that to Clinton and the Saudis is a complete nonsense and I think you must realize that? Not familiar with the former federal prosecutor story? Perhaps more milkshake watching? It’s been all over the news here, perhaps not there. Allow me to bring you up to speed: I consider obstruction of justice serious, and now you have heard about it, as I have told you many times now.
