How is this not blackmail?

It's threatening a witness. Highly illegal.

I can't wait until Trump's downfall concludes. It will be so fucking satisfying.

Trump tomorrow: "Tapes? What tapes? Who mentioned any tapes? Sad when fake news gets out of control. Imaginary tapes. Baloney. I need Scissors. 61"

What day is comey speaking, I need 20 bags of popcorn.

 

[brau]

This is where Trump says he was using "quotations".

 

[SolidSnakex]

This just shows that the press, public, comedians and so on need to keep the heat on Trump. He and the White House are now in a full blown meltdown over this.

Glad me and the House Oversight Committee are on the same page.

 

[liquidtmd]

No honour and no shame are bigly parts of it.

 

[Randam]

srsly, why aren't there daily protest of 100k and more people and on the news stations and in the news papers trying to get that joke of a president out of office

 

[The Technomancer]

I know its hilarious because Nixon but is it actually not standard practice to record all conversations in the Oval Office now? That just seems like a thing that would be...useful

 

[TestOfTide]

It's threatening a witness. Highly illegal.

I can't wait until Trump's downfall concludes. It will be so fucking satisfying.

I will only be satisfied if one of two things happens:

1) Trump ends up in Prison

2) Trump runs away to Russia

Either scenario would be the perfect way to demoralize his dumb base.

I know its hilarious because Nixon but is it actually not standard practice to record all conversations in the Oval Office now? That just seems like a thing that would be...useful

I wouldn't think so because that poses too much of a risk that classified documents leak due to details being verbally recorded.

 

[BadWolf]

No honour and no shame are bigly parts of it.

No brain too.

 

[TheLaughingStock]

25th Amendment, Article 4 can be used if you can prove Trump is unable to serve. Pence and the majority of his cabinet have to invoke and go along with it. It's a longshot, but possible.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty-fifth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution

Why would Pence do that? Pence's loyalty was rewarded by becoming VP when he didn't expect to.

 

[Operations]

Congressman Raja clearly didn't see that Trump put "tapes" in quotes. Move on!

 

[Blader]

I know its hilarious because Nixon but is it actually not standard practice to record all conversations in the Oval Office now? That just seems like a thing that would be...useful

They don't do it anymore because of Nixon.

 

[Beer Monkey]

It's the exact opposite of standard practice because Nixon.

[DrMungo]

It's certainly not chess but he's not stumbling into it either. He has learned, or maybe knows instinctively, that the only way for him to sustain all of his bullshit, policy disasters, and reek of corruption, is to keep generating headlines stretching the limits of acceptability, even (especially) if it comes at the cost of the institutions. He's incredibly dangerous, and so are the republicans excusing him.

It is the enabling of the GOP that makes this dangerous.
If this was rejected by both parties, his support would erode

Lock if old

Has a president ever threatened a US citizen in the open before? Or is this new?

Oh my god.

 

[Lo-Volt]

Why would Pence do that? Pence's loyalty was rewarded by becoming VP when he didn't expect to.

Because if it works, he would become president. Why not go all the way?

 

[Man Called Aerodynamics]

It doesn't seem possible that this permanent crisis state can last for four full years.

And yet, the Republicans have demonstrated time and again that there is nothing Trump can do that will lose him their support.

 

[shiba5]

It's the exact opposite of standard practice because Nixon.

Trump: "Hold my beer."

So... Can the administration just say 'nah'?

It's a dirty, dirty Democrat asking, after all.

I can't imagine how it could even make it to Fall.

It boggles my mind that the word "tweet" is being used in professional letters in congress because of the POTUS.

Oh, wow. Trump tweets really are the equivalent of this:

 

[Shadow Puppetry]

I seriously cannot believe The Kid Who Ran For President ended up being real.

 

[cwmartin]

The beautiful irony here is that if there are actual tapes. It would be Trump who leaked their existence himself.

 

[Machina]

Anybody wanna guess who this person is standing next to Ivanka

 

[jstripes]

Trump: "Hold my beer Diet Coke."

.

 

[Beer Monkey]

I can't imagine how it could even make it to Fall.

People who say Trump will definitely be in office and running in 2020 don't get that he can't stop fucking the chicken even harder the worse things get. I'm pretty sure by next month he'll have the chicken mounted on a Sawzall.

 

[Tovarisc]

They either comply and provide tapes OR deny that such tapes exist (and if they exist then they pray they never get revealed).

Holy shit. Amazing.

 

[Lord Frieza]

Trump tomorrow: "Tapes? What tapes? Who mentioned any tapes? Sad when fake news gets out of control. Imaginary tapes. Baloney. I need Scissors. 61"

I got that reference.

Mitch McConnel's wife?

In the future, everything will be communicated in tweets.

 

[jack_package_200]

Putin's wife?

 

[gutshot]

Trump, tomorrow: "We must find the person who leaked the existence of these tapes!"
Everybody: "Uhhh..."

 

[greycolumbus]

Mitch McConnel's wife?

Putin's rumored girlfriend.

 

[ErichWK]

How are his fans still supporting him.

He's obviously insinuating that Comey taped their interactions. Not that Trump himself has his own recordings.

 

[Magwik]

How are his fans still supporting him.

They're delusional and brainwashed
