Here's my breakdown of #TrumpLogic

1) His ego will tell him that resigning is okay because then they can't impeach him if he's already gone. Basically he can say "he was never impeached"

2) He can say he never lost an election

3) Given all of the other stupid stuff he's done, he probably thinks resigning means he escapes the consequences

That's... fair. Especially if Pence pardons him.

Not only did they wait until AF1 took off, they kept throwing bomb about bomb out

It's basically daring him to get too cooped up and just flip out

Well I would imagine this fits into their schedule quite nicely considering all they were doing before was hiding in their tiny offices all night.

This is probably preferable, considering there's no immediate threat of reporters outside the room.

Now they can scream at each other in peace

Trump on 14 hour flight. 4 major stories broke in past 2 hours. Air Force One has cable. So 14 straight hours of Trump watching cable news

So everyone on that plane, including Trump, is stuck there with no exit and all of this for 14 hours

Yup but he's probably only watching shitty Fox News so to him like no big stories broke and he's doing a fine job :/

I think he will resign. According to the writer of Art of the Deal, Trump doesn't know right or wrong, only winning and losing. To him, the best option is to resign.

Haha ain't that the truth. Even with our shit summer weather and the fucking cold I have had today because of it, and the terrible elections we are going to have and the even worse government that will come of it all this makes me smile eye to eye.

What a Thrilling, captivating and unforgettable few days.

This shit keeps leaking & leaking. It's amazing! Anyone still deny that Trump isn't at least involved with Russia on something at least?

14 hours is a lot of time to fill with coverage of Tim Allen's much-beloved and wrongfully-cancelled sitcom, Last Man Standing

So is this the cover up
“I just fired the head of the F.B.I. He was crazy, a real nut job,” Mr. Trump said, according to the document, which was read to The New York Times by an American official. “I faced great pressure because of Russia. That’s taken off.”

Or is there even more stuff? I can't handle this much popcorn :d

as someone in Europe, I stopped following the Trump development in the last weeks so I have no idea what is going on, I just see many threads in the OT Forum with titles that read like he's going to get caught for something that went wrong and that Russians are involved..

is there a summary or explanation anywhere here in GAF of what 's been going on with Trump, preferably like it's for a 4 year-old toddler?

thanks in advance!

to be clear, re: that 14 hour tweet -- what are the 4 stories?

-- Trump called Comey 'crazy'
-- Investigation now considering possible cover-up

What am I missing?

iirc, it's common for journalists to travel with the President on AF1 for major overseas tours like this.

http://www.cnn.com/2016/12/06/politics/air-force-one-ride/

According to the article, the President's staff has wifi but the journalists don't. There's a phone they can use, but that's about it. The press has a separate cabin, and the way airplanes are I'd guess they can't hear Trump's staff yelling at each other as these stories hit. Apparently there's only room for 13 journalists.

I wouldn't be surprised if Trump kicks them off the plane during the tour.

All of a sudden, Chaffetz ( who rumored flipped and part of the deal was leaving politics for ever), Gowdy, McConnel The turtlez, Ryan, Nunez are sweating profusely.


Also that pacific rim reference, damn straight.

But what is the Category 5 double event?

- Rosenstein memo this morning and his and wishy washy responses regarding his roll beyond the memo. IMO it's pretty clear he's an opportunist that got burned and lashed back.
- Investigation has reached a top aid. Heavily assumed and in some instances reported Kushner.
