NYT: Comey Memo Says Trump Asked Him to End Flynn Investigation

I feel dumb.

I didn't realize they still held the ability to confirm things.
All of the "the memo doesn't actually exist" people probably shut the fuck up really quickly

Maybe something this tweet is hinting at?

Source: Major newspaper has a big Trump story coming in the next 24-48 hours that may be even more damaging than the Comey/Flynn story.
Yup, the market's finally adjusting away from the assumption of broad tax cuts. At least for this year.
That's why an AHCA passage would be a boon to the stockmarket, frees up Congress to do tax reform next, despite all the actual damage AHCA will do to people, productivity, and labor mobility.

I had always just assumed that he just got arrested and the audio only sort left things open ended for the viewer

So when does Hannity lose his shit and proclaim Fox News as fake??
I'd laugh if the pee pee tape leaked
I saw Collins on CNN this morning

It's pretty bad when you have to double check your computer's date to make sure this isn't just something that was posted yesterday or the day before.
It's a really easy response. 'Of course the memo exists, but what's written on it is a lie!'
Don't watch Fox News (read articles though). Were they really trying to play the idea of it not existing? Even most Republicans seemed to be ready to attack the memoes themselves since they seemed to believe they were real.

He'll just say Comey is a liar. Just bog standard, lack of imagination deflection.
In short, Hannity's bread and butter.

Did they find it in a Penn Station bathroom?
I'm gonna assume exaggeration since I can't imagine it being worse than firing Comey and Comey memos.

Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) is getting interviewed by CNN right now. Says he still has trust in President Trump, but would have "no reason not to believe" Comey if the contents of the memo are real.
I have to imagine it's an exaggeration because there aren't many bigger bombs that can be dropped.
Also: The FBI's job is kinda 'playing gotcha'.

"Breaking now....President Trump has strangled a bus full of school children to death and is now eating the corpses. White House Officials say 'he was complaining about being hungry, and then he just snapped".

You think the average Trump supporter knows that?
"Why do the feds keep trying to dig up dirt on Trump? Who do they think they are, the police?!"

Those "kiddies" are no worse than the "OMG it's happening" posters. As to why it "feels" like they'd rather Trump stay in office, I'd look at yourself for that answer, because I highly doubt any of them would actually prefer that, given that they're as anti-Trump as anyone else in the thread. They're just pessimistic about the GOP's chances of being adults.
Speaking as someone who's not optimistic about impeachment, much less removal, I'll be thrilled to be wrong. But one requires a House majority, which is extremely unlikely, and the other requires a 2/3 vote in the Senate, which is an order of magnitude less likely than the first. It's not immaturity, it's simple math: as long as Trump's approval among Republicans is high, it's simply not going to happen. Nixon's breaking point was 50% approval within his party. Trump has a long way to go to get in that area, and with Fox News and other right-wing outlets - the only places so many GOP voters get their info - actively obscuring or downplaying Trump's troubles, why would these voters change their minds? They wouldn't seem likely to even if exposed to the news absent being told what to think.

the Republicans may be two faced scumbags, but now Trump is affecting something they actually care about: their money.If you wanted to fight the government, you shoulda spent your youth preparing for a career in politics, community organising, law, or journalism. If you're not in one of these fields, write your representatives, volunteer, donate to the ACLU, and subscribe to newspapers, because those actors wield the strongest powers to fight injustice and corruption but to do so they need the support of the people.

It almost seems like he doesn't even like sex, but rather just uses it as a domination/power move. He's really the worst of America in one person.

The at the last week has gone, that's a pretty safe prediction.
Hype.
So cue the first few days of the white house denying that there were any children in there, then changing their story to say that Trump was never there in the first place.
A day or two later, the White House changes the story to say that Trump was there, but he was eating children-shaped sandwiches in the bus for some reason.
Then a few days later, Trump posts a tweet saying that he did eat children, and that he did nothing wrong.
