Not sure if we've hit the tipping point where the GOP bails on Trump yet, but I think we're starting to get close. Don't buy the hype that the GOP will do down on the ship with him. They'll bail, once the water's at their ankles. If it comes down to Trump or their jobs, they'll send Fanta flowers.

And I hear dripping.

Maybe. But there is already so much info with them being on the record being complicit. Bailing now may limit the damage, but it will not absolve them.

Comey to Trump:

They fucked up so hard, they got Comey's former BOSS to the investigate them.

 

[RoyaleDuke]

I'll take some good news rather than the none.

That people were claiming nothing would come of this on the day everything came of this is just hilarious in hindsight

I wouldn't start celebrating too early.

 

[cheezcake]

Prediction about the pro-Trump spin:

They can't just say oh he's a liberal, because he was a Bush appointee. Guarantee we're going to see a lot of "the political establishment is trying to take Trump down because he's too much of an outsider" bullshit in the future.

Being a Bush appointee doesn't matter anymore, they'll just claim he was a member of the DEEP STATE™ all along. They literally just make shit up in their heads so they never have to question their worldview.

SAVE? Fuck man, every night this week and there's rumors abounding of yet another huge media story to come out WORSE than the Comey story. Which frankly, I find impossible.

[super-heated plasma]

Ahhhhh this is also breaking.
WaPo has recording of top GOP leader saying he thinks Putin pays Trump, then Ryan swearing lawmakers to secrecy

Can you believe how much this is being overshadowed by the Mueller news? I mean this is HUGE in itself and would create a mega-thread in an hour.

Curious how Trump & co. will spin this. This is a special counsel directly made for investigation into his team's ties to Russia. There's no other reason to fire other than not wanting to be investigated. It was also his department of justice that made the move. I guess he may go with "This is a democratic plot helped by the fake media to undermine and get in the way of us doing great things!".

 

[Flying Toaster]

They literally could not have pick a better person. He was the former FBI director for 12 years. Oh god I am happy.

Just wanna take a moment to post this choice quote from Rosenstein from a couple of days ago:

"If you ask me, one of the main problems in Washington, DC, is that everybody is so busy running around trying to protect their reputation instead of protecting the public which is what they're supposed to be doing," he said.

Respect.

I'm tempted to say nothing will happen. But always as a reverse jinx. I don't want to get my hopes up.

This is huge. Maybe it amounts to nothing. But this is a crucial step if it ever amounts to anything.

[JoeBoy101]

Absolve? Shieeeeeet, we might soon be talking about different terms than ones served in the Senate. We're taking a sharp turn out of moral complicity into legal complicity. And they will BAIL on that.

Hopefully Trump just quits.


"they won't let me do my job, so I'm resigning."

This is the likely scenario with him out of office. And, frankly, its not a small possibility either, because you don't need evidence, just a preponderance of pressure.

They will say it's unnecessary and a distraction but that they aren't worried because they will be vindicated.
