Impeachment is right and correct. This is clearly a cover-up, and you don't cover-up nothing. Trump has painted himself guilty.

But this is circumstantial evidence. However clear the logic of it, direct evidence will be needed to make impeachment stick. So Schumer is a little premature. Right, but premature.

From the far distance - across the pond - it looks like another attempt of Trump to successfully castrate the American democray.

One way to ensure there never is any evidence against you is to fire everyone investigating you...Comey, Bharara, Yates.....

Republicans, lousy crooks, all of them.

Cover up of what???? Comey has indicated to Trump a number of times that Trump is not the target of any investigation. And wishing doesn't make it so.

Not true. On March 20, Comey said under oath:

I have been authorized by the Department of Justice to confirm that the FBI, as part of our counterintelligence mission, is investigating the Russian government's efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election and that includes investigating the nature of any links between individuals associated with the Trump campaign and the Russian government and whether there was any coordination between the campaign and Russia's efforts.


Last time I checked, Trump was associated with the Trump campaign.

...and Comey confirmed to Trump that Trump was not one of the individuals under investigation.

See? That wasn't that hard.

Nobody other than Trump has made that claim, including Comey. Your willingness to believe everything Trump, the most dishonest person ever to grace the American political stage, claims says a lot about your gullibility and aversion to reality and facts when it comes to all things Trump.

I remember you going out of your way to assert that it was "fake news" that the Trump/Russia connection was being investigated and later that it was also "fake news" that all the intelligence agencies agreed that Russia's efforts were intended to hurt Hillary and help Trump.

You seem to be trying to set yourself up as the Sean Spicer of this board, now that Kellyanne Conway has crawled back under her rock. Well, whaddya know? Your gal Kellyanne just peaked out from under her rock and said:

Kellyanne Conway, counselor to President Trump, said in a combative television interview Wednesday morning that it is “inappropriate” to question the timing of Trump's decision to fire FBI Director James B. Comey.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...comeys-firing/

Kinda like yer boy saying that Trump will not be questioned. I hope you like the company you keep, Whell.

Yes, I was about to ask for proof of this extraordinary claim. Of course, Trump zealots never need actual proof of anything, so...

Innocent until proven guilty...unless you're an enemy of the left.

Here are some of my favorite "dishonest people":

"I have previously stated, and I repeat now, that the United States plans no military intervention in Cuba." - JFK, just months before the Bay of Pigs disaster.

FDR, in 1940: "I have said this before, but I shall say it again and again and again: Your boys are not going to be sent into any foreign wars," he told voters in Boston. "I am fighting to keep our people out of foreign wars. And I will keep on fighting," he told voters in Brooklyn. "Your president says this country is not going to war," he assured voters in Buffalo.

Bill Clinton: “I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky.”

George H.W. Bush: “Read my lips. No new taxes.”

...and finally, Politifact's 2013 lie of the year: "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. If you like your health care plan, you can keep it." - Barack Obama. He even repeated this lie at least 5 times.

Trump is an amateur liar compared to these guys. But in your lefty freak show world, these little facts matter not.

Unbecoming of an informed adult considering Trump's lies began with his own inauguration.
