Blind spot my ass...they just thought they would get away with this shit like they were used to getting away with shit their whole lives. Problem for them is, being POTUS =/= being a private businessman, in terms of how many eyes are on your operation.
"We reached out to 20 'Nothing Will Happen' posters to appear in this thread.
All declined.
Right wingers feel the need to call in to any media that isn't right wing and spew the talking points they heard on right wing media. To them they feel they are calling in to spread the "truth" to agencies that are being unfair. This is also started to become coordinated with areas of the internet (like r/the_donald) targeting journalists on twitter, comments sections, polls, etc. You also have lots of old people with too much time on their hands that will naturally skew Trump in a big way. They have been calling in to CSPAN for years now.

I don't think Trump actually gets what a shit pile he's stepped into. He really does not get it.

TICK-TOCK on how Trump team took the news that special counsel had been named to lead FBI's Trump-Russia investigation.
https://twitter.com/JenniferJJacobs/status/865026163214864385
I'm sure this is how the WH wants people to think this went down.
Gonna have to wait till the boss' concert is over for that quote.
Alright, Daily Show was also on fire about this news. Holy shit, Trevor going all in. So good.

Well he did say the first part. The second part however is bullshit because the WH was informed until 30 minutes before the media was (this is a fact).
Well about that...if the other news is to be believed (that Trump, his campaign and his transition team led by Pence were informed as early as November last year that Flynn was compromised AND he was still on Turkey payroll while NSA), then it MIGHT be President Ryan. And I say MIGHT because who the fuck knows what he had his fingers in as there is the recording that he was aware of all this Russia funding (although he is claiming it was all a joke).

Can we all just at least agree President Pence is looking like a superior option at this point? I mean fuck...even if you are a Republican the weekly scandals are just too fucking much. Get rid of this cockknocker and save your chances at getting the GOP agenda passed.

On one hand, that's pretty crazy
On the other...it's Trump. That kind of uncommon sense, ignorance, and narcissistic mindset so beyond comprehension you can't fathom how a human could be so stupid is par for the course
If you think the headline on Breitbart on the day Trump is removed from office will be anything other than a call to violence, if not outright rebellion, you're seriously underestimating white nationalists' disconnect from reality.
Pence, assuming he doesn't get caught in this too (remember, he was on the transition team that, as of tonight, we know Flynn informed them he was under investigation on January 4th), would probably be worse. Without Trump confusing the message and distracting everyone with his blunders, Pence could conceivably put together a tight ship full of hardcore conservatives like himself and basically go to war with the last 60 years of progress. Look what he did in Indiana and put that on a national level. That's a Pence presidency.

Couldn't they be arrested for attempting to incite a riot?

Hopefully the whole family branch burn down alongside him, they are all rotten and needs to be cut down from top to bottom.
That's true. It's just bananas that their narrative can be so easily proven wrong, why even try?
Depends on if Trump fires Bannon first, which seems fairly likely as impeachment/a resignation will still probably not happen until 2018+. Alt-Right would turn on Trump then.

HOLY SHIT??
Ryan is going down here. It's like Christmas.
omg i love this
Don't presume that if Trump goes down, things will just go return to normalcy for the party and it will be business as usual with whomever retains office. You don't just sweep this under the rug and go back to fucking over the poor, the climate, and pushing tax breaks for the wealthy with the new guy.
If Trump eventually is indeed convicted, he didn't act alone on the magnitude of such an act. The eyes of justice will be shining a very wide lens on every single member of the party that helped put him in office. Every single person he associates with. His entire business operations and partnerships. It will open the floodgates...and well it should. The party knows it.

I really wish the constitution would immediately vacate all of a president's supreme court justices if that president resigned or is forcibly removed from office. If they're unfit to lead, they're unfit to shape the court.

Eh. Dude's a conservative crony, but he's not as bad as Scalia.
edit: sorry for the double post!
I imagine it's just a matter of time before it's uncovered that Wikileaks is a Russian thing.
Depends, we went over all of this during the Milo thing, where the supreme court considers that sort of language protected unless there's an "imminent and likely" threat. There's a lot of room for interpretation as to what "imminent" means, so in theory one could say "We should kill all the Jews" and it's protected, but if you say "Grab that Jew and kill him!" it's not, because it's inciting violence in a very clear, immediate way.
At that point, if people actually take up arms the legality is probably the least of our concerns, and if they don't I'm sure they can slime their way out of it by saying it was "just entertainment" or something.
Hard to say, Bannon definitely gets them riled up but how many people are just there because of Trump and would stick with him no matter what? The exact mixture of "Angry Orange" and "White (Grape) Power" packets used to make this particular rusty metal tub of Flavor Aid is hard to discern at this point.
