I can't fathom a Trump supporters thoughts even if he gets impeached

They're so stubborn, so indoctrinated for reasons that can't be explained

They will defend him even if he murders someone live, or pisses on the Bible

Who cares?

Everyone keeps talking about his base but he base keeps shrinking

They'll get mad over it for a little bit and then go hide

What I don't get is that doesn't it seem like this WAS some kind of scam? Whether the lawyer is telling the truth about her lack of Kremlin ties and her claim that she never offered or gave any anti-Hillary info or not, the fact remains that Emin had Goldstone set this meeting up as a chance to get anti-Hillary info -- about her financial ties to Russia -- from a Russian government intermediary....yet this info clearly never materialized, as it was never released in any form.

Racism is why their so stubborn. King dickhead has some pretty racist policies, so that's why their defending him. With him they will "put us in our place"

"Hello Trump Jr. Would you like Russian government assistance to undermine Hillary Clinton?"

"Yes, absolutely."

"Great see you then!"

To think it would end up being this obvious. I can't imagine what Mueller's team must be doing if there's any emails like this sent to/from Trump himself. Russia would be smart enough to avoid that but Trump sure as fuck wouldn't be.

Mueller would be all "smdh"

Where are you getting "the info clearly never materialized" from? Any credible source?

There's quite a lot of info that "materialized" during that campaign.

Summer 2019, Tiffany is the new host of The Apprentice, her book "A Traitor's Daughter" is a bestseller. And with everyone else in jail, she's the new head of the Trump Organization, slowly turning its image around.

All we have on the contents of the meeting itself comes from the claims of those involved. Much of which has changed over the past few days.

I mean that it was never released. One would assume that if Team Trump got damaging info about Hillary's ties to Russia, they would have been all over Trump's tweets, Fox News, and Breitbart during the entire campaign. Or on wikileaks. SOMEWHERE.

There's no reason to think anything relating to Hillary's supposed ties to Russia was actually passed to Jr in the meeting. If anything were given, one would think it would be related to the hacked emails, but that's not what Goldstone said the meeting was about. Why?

This is probably the biggest bombshell of the entire investigation so far, other than the obstruction of justice in firing Comey over the "Russia Thing."

It is an absolute megaton and already confirmed to be true.

You won't see Trump Jr. in handcuffs tomorrow, but this is the lead that buries the Trump Admin.

Well the Russian government knew it didn't have that information, but they talked about that adoption law. Junior may be telling the truth that was the real intention because Putin really hates the law. The intention was to change the law likely and probably give info about Hillary in exchange. Basically the Hillary Russian ties was to entice them I guess and damaging news about Hillary was released.

Remember there was some news about Hillary giving uranium to a Russian company and Trump did expressed disappoint that no one talked about that.
