nevermind, we're still on track to making Pence look fookin' stoopid.

Nobody is delegitimizing the election through this. Trump won fair and square, even if the system he won in (EC) is stupid. If anyone is delegitimizing the election, it's trump claiming that even the popular vote was wrong because of "millions of cases of voter fraud" with literally no evidence. If the president is commiting treason is a serious issue, but we're not forcing the results to change (Unless we get to the point where literally everyone involved with Trump is a Russian plant, but I highly doubt that)

No, but not that much better is still better

Is Ryan that much better than Pence, also no but I'd prefer him

Its not about being better, pence is just as bad but isnt crazy. It gets rid of this bullshit deniability they have now, and we can run ads all election of these clowns endorsing the traitor.
 
Obviously Trump had no idea this was going on, obviously.
I'm sure Trump and his staff were merely exchanging recipes with the Russians.
They weren't actually collaborating with a foreign government to steal the election for them.

They'd never do such a thing. Not the Republicans who've been so honest and forthright with us.

@everyone thinking this won't stick:

The intelligence apparatus is making sure this is staying in the news because they can't prosecute it any other way due to Trump being president.

Look at all the sources for these stories and the one that brought down Flynn. It's all intelligence officials.

When you go to war with the intelligence community, they always win. Flynn was step one.

I don't get the myopia in this thread

Yes if all this is true and collision occurred - by all means get them all out
I'm for it - I'd rather have someone in the White House that is presidential and professional

But everyone solely blaming the Russians?
If it wasn't for the democrats screwing over Bernie and all the other stuff that was uncovered this wouldn't even be a story

How can you not say Hilary's team is most to blame?

Hillary was voted for more than Bernie. We the people voted for her. Shut the hell up with this garbage already. You have some god damn gall bringing up whataboutism bullshit in this thread.

Oh wow! Look at this misdirection people! Anything to cover up this flaming dumpster-train-fire! BLAME IT ON THOSE DIRTY DEMS AMIRITE!?

ALSO HOLY SHIT THAT DOSSIER WAS REAL.

IT'S NOT EVEN MY FUCKING BIRTHDAY.

For the record
I'd take a Pence presidency over Trump any day

That doesn't make the way you assigned blame here any less stupid.

I can't really emphasize enough just how mind-numbingly idiotic that idea of yours is.
 
Even though people on GAF are always expecting a impeachment, lets say that does happen. Wouldn't the GOP and Pence still be in charge? If so, you should look into Pence. Not like he is is pro life, lgbt, etc. Only win is the orange turd being removed. Mostly would be the same the same otherwise.

Yeah, there's no way if this breaks bad that Pence gets to assume the seat. He knew. So he gets impeached too.

VPs can get impeached and removed just like Presidents do. And if the case is a treasonous one, he doesn't get to duck it, much less be rewarded with the Presidency.

It will fall to Ryan. But the question then would be whether the election itself is declared illegitimate.

Yea the democrats are completely clean and pure here

Now I know the Democrats made some poor campaign decisions last year, but man, openly inviting the Russians to hack their emails was a really bad call on their part!
 
So what season of 24 does this most closely resemble?

Maybe I'm too cynical but to me it seems if the agencies are leaking this stuff, they have hit a wall and putting it out hoping something new comes up and gives them ammo to use against Trump. Does sort of feel like internal wars are brewing inside CIA, FBI, etc and I wonder whats going to happen.
 
That's not gonna happen either :(

So then who becomes President?

Section 9 declared that, in the event of the removal, resignation, death, or inability of both the President and Vice President, the President pro tempore of the United States Senate was next in line of succession after the Vice President, followed by the Speaker of the House of Representatives.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidential_Succession_Act

I don't think Pence would go down, even if he did know. Trump is a loose cannon. Pence is still one of their own and willing to work with the establishment and intelligence communities.

Congratulations on making me reconsider my stance that Pence would be a better President than Trump.
 
Transcripts in detail need to be released. Anything less the irrefutable evidence at this point. Because having that proof, in detail is the only thing that is going to force the GOP hand to impeach.

This is going to be a long road.

I trust Pence with nuclear codes more than Trump.

Plus they'd finally give up on that stupid wall.

Bernie couldn't even invigorate Democrats to vote for him. His team even hacked Hillay's campaign and still was not able to beat her. People seem to forget that. Seriously, drop Bernie. He was not a good candidate and was actually a detriment to Hillary's presidential campaign.
 
So this isn't quite the smoking gun it sounded like from the headline but it is another salvo in the ongoing war between the Trump administration and the IC. One timed directly after Trump and the cowards in the GOP started complaining about the "leaks".
 
This election will go down in history due to the amount of transparent corruption, incompetence,and just straight out evil acts against humanity.
