Flynn - more info from unnamed sources. If the "warning" occured, it was non specific and could certainly have been interpreted as sour grapes.

Coney - through a strictly political prism, yes. From a job performance perspective, if Hillary had been elected she would probably got rid of him too.

Acting AG Yates testified under oath about the warning. It occurred.

Comey's firing wasn't just an issue from a political POV. It looked like obstruction of justice to many, including Ass't AG Rosenstein. Hence, the Special Counsel.

I still look forward to you finding the posts in the four areas in which you claim to have long since criticized Trump.

Frankly, I didn't know who you were referring to in your prior post. Are you referring to Trump or Bannon?
Don't play fucking stupid with me. You invited the members to post why they're anti-Trump and you'll let us know if you support it. So I posted that I'm anti-Trump because he's a sociopathic grifter. And your asshole response is a yawn and eye rolling. You're a dickweed.

Flynn's sins were well known yet Trump chose to overlook them, and he served a record setting 24 days.

As for firing Comey, that was dumb as dumb can be. Now there is Mueller whom Trump really cannot fire and he is good friends with Comey...........so now Trump has to deal with both Comey and Mueller.

As for Hillary firing Comey, a 50-50 at best since it would have seemed vindictive. Besides if Hillary had been elected over Comey's interference, he probably would (or should) have resigned.

So do I hear a SIX?

Firing Comey was pretty dumb. But, if Mueller doesn't find anything it will end up being a wash.

Appointing Kushner was yet another dumb decision. What are his qualifications other than another real estate shark? Ivanka and Jared as Senior Advisors? The nepotism and conflicts of interest will eventually get him.

Yeh, and if chickens had lips, they wouldn't have to eat with their peckers.

I find it quite unlikely that any connection to Trump himself would not have come out long ago after a year of investigation, leaks, etc.

Whereas the Clinton's quid pro quo is obvious to everybody and the left just doesn't care.

I think Mueller will be fair, maybe even more than fair, since he doesn't want to be seen as partisan.

Sort of like how people ignore what they see for fear of being labeled racist.

There is plenty of info already showing collusion between Russia and Trump.
Post this again, may have been missed.

Those who watch Trump and how he has to be in total control, must also then know it would be true with any thing to do with Russia.
