Support NeoGAF

[Zolo]

Usually, this would be the time Trump would be tweeting about #FakeNews

 

[Already Torn]

The permanent embarrassment of supporting a candidate that is so corrupt.

Do you mean Lincoln? Pretty rich coming from the party of the KKK, the Democrats.

 

[SgtCobra]

Patiently waiting... Doubt anything really substantial wil come out of this (impeachment) but hey, every thing helps.

 

[iavi]

Bless up.

The dominoes are falling

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Lemon listing off "coincidences" of things Trump and his team did and what Russia did.

Some already resign that already very major lol.

 

[Waylon Drums]

Could you imagine if BAMs set this up?

I've been pissed at him for "knowing" and not letting me know. Like he owed me a call or something, I dunno. Now I think I was an idiot.

I actually think he knew it was probably best to just let it collapse on itself.

 

[JCizzle]

I feel like this thread has the same hope in it that was in the election thread when people thought the 3 biggest counties were going to save Florida from going to Trump.

(Sorry, I'm just s little jaded.)

I tend to agree. nothing has ever stuck, why expect it to start now.

 

[~Kinggi~]

Could you imagine if BAMs set this up?

I mean, he literally did. He gave the agencies the ability to share the confidential findings amongst themselves days before he was done. Like, if we survive this ima kiss an Obama statute or something as a daily ritual.

 

[- J - D -]

SNL and Last Week Tonight are going to be GLORIOUS.

At the very least, if nothing else comes of this, late night talk shows will have even more fodder for weeks to come.

your skepticism is warranted


But damn I am having fun right now.

Nice fishin pole u got there

CNN right now:

 

[Gattsu25]

Best birthday present of the day.

Burn it the fuck down.

Happy birthday!

 

[Metaroo]

So who's filing the suits? Isn't this treason? Or are the sites reporting these wary to jump the gun on that?

 

[Already Torn]

This history nerd on CNN is charming

 

[Foffy]

We're gonna need a name of those who are likely to tally into the "body count" of this scandal.

Spicer and Conway seem like two easy people that are done. They've now directly lied on this matter.

 

[Blader]

Regardless of whether Trump is impeached or not, Putin has already shown the world that the US political system is a shambling mess, and that the supposed virtues of the greatest democracy on the planet are just as fallible as in every other country on Earth.

That said, what worries me not is not so much whether the Russians can pump their chests up at the end of the day, but rather how easily the intelligence community is throwing the administration into disarray. Trump is a dickwad and deserves scorn and worse, but it is clear to me now that the true power of the executive branch does not rest in the presidency, but rather in the agencies like the FBI, CIA, and NSA. That's scary whether you are pro-Trump or anti-Trump.

If anything, this whole episode affirms how much having control over, and the respect of, the intelligence community is a huge part of the presidency -- and how Trump has utterly failed in both of these respects.

 

[VeryGooster]

But I thought Trump didn't know Putin!

 

[SgtCobra]

Some already resign that already very major lol.

Yeah if it leads to more then why the hell not haha

 

[tsumineko]

Usually, this would be the time Trump would be tweeting about #FakeNews

He already admitted it was all true.

 

[iavi]

Now ain't the time to be jaded. Not when there's already been one resignation and more to probably come tomorrow with not even a month in

 

[Loudninja]

Yeah if it leads to more then why the hell not haha

Heck yes!

 

[wandering]

So who's filing the suits? Isn't this treason? Or are the sites reporting these wary to jump the gun on that?

The investigation is ongoing, we need to be patient. But there's smoke. A looooot of it.

Yeah, it's a good strategy. If Obama was involved in any way, GOP would just hand wave it away as something Obama did rather than Trump doing anything wrong.

 

[blackflag]

I tried looking at the_dipstick to see how they were all reacting to this and now I have intraocular melanoma.

Please pray for me

I did this earlier...holy fuck ....hyuuuuuge mistake...bigly error on my part....see I'm brain damaged now.

 

[yami4ct]

we have a scoop that can take down the POTUS but this and that

Is there a protocol to follow to expose someone like that even if you have definite evidence?

If you were a media organization and had such a scoop that you were hundred percent sure in, there are a few things you might do. The most responsible thing would be to report it to the feds and not publish until they're through investigating/refused to take action. Many would just publish and let the news work itself out, I feel.

He smells a new book! But he's a good dude.

 

[Skatterd]

It's beginning to look a lot like Watergate

 

[CrispyBoar]

I can't wait until the WH is forced to give up the names mentioned in the NYT report and CNN drops a couple more. It will be glorious.

Bury them.

Bury them deep.

 

[jacobeid]

I get all excited picturing Trump, Bannon and co freaking the fuck out right about now..

The nightmare may almost be over.

 

[Already Torn]

The Manchurian Bromance

 

[Gutek]

Don Lemon super pushing for somebody to break and just say it out loud: Trump and Putin are colluding.

Don Lemon super pushing for somebody to break and just say it out loud: Trump and Putin are colluding.

He's getting his result through a process of elimination.

Smart that he's asking all of his guests to provide any kind of reasonable and rational explanation that doesn't involve collusion and he's getting a lot of shrugs.

 

[Skytylz]

Bush Sr: I'm like 95 and I have pneumonia but also fuck you

I just wanted to say that I love you BronsonLee. The reality you paint in your posts since the election/inauguration give me hope for the future.

 

[Whales]

treasonous fucker

 

[Fantastical]

Is there really a chance Conway gets canned?

 

[Piggus]

*takes a big sip* I feel you brother!

I'm gonna have to get some alcohol in me to really enjoy this. What a time to be alive!

 

[Syncytia]

Jake Tapper should be amazing tomorrow.

Press Briefing gonna be craaaaazzzyyyy

 

[Brinbe]

I kinda wish Dems got even half as riled up about things like this as idiotic conservative voters (and this is actually something worth getting super pissed about!) But I don't think anyone is really surprised by this.

Best part is that all these stupid Trump supporters and GOP pols are being exposed as the idiots and hypocrites that they are. How many hearings on Benghazi and calls to lock Hillary up. And here we have actual and serious evidence of very serious charges and nothing will happen.

 

[Already Torn]

Is there really a chance Conway gets canned?

They need her now more than ever

 

[Gutek]

Is there really a chance Conway gets canned?

I don't know why that would happen at this point.

 

[Waylon Drums]

Is there really a chance Conway gets canned?

I can totally see her getting dumped early as the shit starts to flow. She's been on the front line, in a way.


Edit: Haha, everyone disagrees.

 

[Veitsev]

Is there really a chance Conway gets canned?

She is the next blood sacrifice

 

[SamuelSupreme]

So is this big? Will something significant actually come from this?

 

[Extollere]

Sometimes I wish the "librual propaganda fake news media" would sensationalize a bit too. This is a bombshell and the stories read like it's just another day in the Trump admin. The left really sucks at selling a story.

Huffington Post has got you bruh

People have no idea, my sister is enjoying the festival. "The US called our Supreme Court ousting of our corrupted Prime Ministers and military coup as undemocratic and powergrab, now look at the hypocrites"

This really hurts US position as a champion of democracy

 

[greycolumbus]

Maybe this was the retaliation Obama and co. had in mind.

 

[Syncytia]

Is there really a chance Conway gets canned?

Conway? Almost no one gives a shit about her anymore. Between Alternative Facts, Bowling Green Massacre, and to push Ivanka's clothing, the media is pretty much done with her.

 

[NullPointer]

Is there really a chance Conway gets canned?

We're beyond Conway and the other smaller pieces on the board.

This centers upon Trump, and why Russian intelligence had so many high level communications with his administration and talked about having special access to him.
