    Clinton was impeached for lying under oath. He lost his law license for it. But impeachment went over like a lead balloon in the senate.

    Any attempt to actually remove Trump from office will go nowhere.

    They are probably working at something called a -job-. I work from home. Or they know that the whole thing has been irrefutably debunked due to the journalist who wrote the story having a definitive history of lying in print as the (far LW) Columbia Journalism article I linked evidences.

    Lemme guess, you kept believing Rather's reporting based on forgeries with respect to GW Bush's military service even after the fraud was revealed... just because. Amirite?

    But you have posted the same reply before when impeachment wasn't as evident. Republicans are beginning to step away from Trump. Are the Rinos jumping ship first? When will you?

    Pardon me but you sound desperate in focusing on the source rather than the offense. Your choice.

    It won't be posting. If I remember it, will dredge up this thread and give "likes" to the TDS "end is near" based on a story from a well-documented partisan liar that LW are willing to gobble up gullibly because it salves their confirmation bias. Eh, will probably just drop it. Dredging up all the many inaccurate threads from this OP based on fabrications from the LW Sewer Pipe after they are demonstrated false a few weeks down the road would be a lifetime avocation.

    The above is like claiming, "you are focusing on Pinocchio's nose growing instead of what he said!"

    Maybe, maybe not. We don't know yet what anyone has or doesn't have.

    You've strayed about as far away from reality as one can. Absolutely nothing about this story has been "irrefutably debunked." All we have so far is the usual character assassination the Grifter-in-Chief (and you) always relies on.

    Mhmm



    The reporter of the article in the OP has a nose that reaches to the Moon. But sure, we should believe him... this time... just because TDS reasons.

    When even COLUMBIA SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM complains about it, you know it's bad:

    Do you think posting a picture or a link to the co-author's prior work provides your vaunted "irrefutable evidence" the story has been debunked? It doesn't.

    Who worked for Trump, a known liar and the person that touted "extreme vetting" yet seemed to be very lacking in his own hiring practices and appointments.

    HAHAHA now the documented liar/plagiarist is just a "co-author."

    "Well he does have a documented history of lying in print so many times, often using unnamed sources, that even LW sources complain, but he's just a co-author."

    Will this pan out? Did any of your prior magical thinking on "Trump's crimes" pan out?

    Every day another shoe drops but you can't hear the thump. Unfortunate. The lost cannot lead.

    To what magical thinking are you referring? Is this just another premature assumption on your part that the Mueller investigation will produce nothing of substance? If so, move over. All those in denial repeat the same line.

    Allow me to point out redundantly asserting the material in the article is false based on prior reporting one of the authors did is the kind of circumstantial evidence typically not admissible in legal proceedings.

    Not obstruction of justice even if true since the subject in question was not illegal even if true. Clinton lied about an actual incident that was illegal sexual harassment .

    By the way you are an idiot if someone tells you to do something illegal and you do it. Oh and for what it is worth the article is supposition not fact. It's the usual sources close to the investigation which could be anything or anyone.

    We should keep in mind the Buzzfeed report is not reliant on Cohen's word. It refers to both other principles corroborating the story as well as the existence of documents reportedly in Mueller's possession.

    Are you getting legal advice from Rudy? If Don told Cohen to lie to Congress it's a crime. Full stop.

    Thanks for acknowledging your previous post that suborning perjury isn't a crime was incorrect.

    Nope 'if' is the operating word here. And if is all you've got.

    And when "if" is true will you admit it?

    Nope. This is what you wrote.........."Not obstruction of justice even if true"

    That is factually incorrect.

    It may be a crime but it is not obstruction of justice.
