    I never cared for "Goober" Sessions, but to blame him for the Russia mess is incredible.
    So typical of the reality show host - never admits a mistake or takes blame - throws people under the bus.
    He wants the Russia investigation to go away - because there is dirt to be revealed - just look at the meeting his son, Uday had with Russian money launderers, KGB, along with Kushner, and Manafort. Trump had said such meetings had never taken place!
    He wanted Sessions to "whitewash" the investigation - can't do that in recusal.
    The other news is Deutsche Bank and Trump money laundering - money laundering has been proven with Trump casino.

    I don't like Sessions but he's made some clever moves, his testimony was very good and by recusing himself Trump can't try to twist his arm to make the investigation go away, he's manoeuvred himself out of a potential mess.

    Trump has also said that he spoke to Putin about adoption, during their second impromptu meeting.

    Here is Trump trying to imply there is nothing sinister ongoing regarding Russia because he ALSO spoke about adoption. Just like son Donald jr.

    Watch out! This is Trump at his most deflective. Just because son Donald spoke about adoption and the old Don did as well with Putin, we now have to believe Trump that this is all about adoption and nothing else...

    Even though there is not a shred of evidence to support that adoption was ever the subject of both conversations.

    But Trump throws 2 things together and thinks people are stupid enough to take this for totally innocent events immediately.

    Apparently Trump only rates people by his level of idiocy.

    Same with Sessions. Now Trump is trying to weasel his way out of the fact he was the one who selected him for his campaign.

    The next thing Trump might say about Sessions is that he 'doesn't own him'...

    Serial deflector and liar.

    So, the half of year long harrasment of republican government by democratic party achieves it's result - work of government paralised, main problem of it became the inner investigation, and it starts fighting among itself.

    And democrats are coming back to reestablish themselves as main party of USA, I assume.



    ...well. Can't say I witnessed people celebrating the establishment of one-party-system in this century yet.

    We are all witnessing the unraveling of the Trump administration before our very eyes; I suspect that Sessions will end up resigning after this attack by Trump upon him.

    Who in their right mind would want to work for Trump the way he treats his underlings?

    Well, what can I - distant observer - say? I was expecting Hillary to win, but something went wrong, people made different choise - and now it gets fixed. Trump will get impeachment, in mid term you will get democratic parlament, and in 2020 you will have democrat elected in the office again, and all will return to norm that you got used to. Stability.

    And remember - mass media is your friend and guide, everything else - is just a bunch of jealous agents of Kremlin who want nothing but to take freedom away from you. Never listen to them.

    I keep wondering how long it will be before Trump decides to dissolve the Congress and rule by decree

    And how all the Trumpistas will be saying this restores Democracy and will certainly Make America Great Again.

    This is a move leftist, global socialist would cheer. The right would turn on Trump, and the left would suddenly love Trump as fast as they suddenly hated Russia.

    Indeed, even though voters gave the GOP a mandate to pursue the agenda they voted for, Democrats have chosen to obstruct it.

    Another aspect of the Left's "bullshit" Russia "nothingburger" is the arrogant unwillingness of the Democratic party to face the fact that it's their bad "progressive" ideology, policies and candidates that have gotten them wiped out at the state and federal level since Obama took office in 2009.

    Introspection is not a "progressive" trait. Neither is humility - their self-styled myth of infallibility must be maintained at all costs, so somebody else must take the blame for their defeats...

    "BWAAAAAAAAAHHH - RUSSIA!!!"

    Actually, Americans are getting sick and tired of Democrats putting party before country.

    Well, that's what the Left's uproar is all about - they can't share the only thing they care about, which is power.

    Trump could have kept his mouth shut rather than publically criticize his AG -- that's what most presidents would have done. But Trump is the most transparent president we've had in a very long time, and that's what transparency looks like.

    I completely agree with Trump. He has not been treated fairly. The congress slow walks his cabinet choices so he is short-staffed, they attack everyone on his team, they hinder him with foolish accusations rather than allow him to govern. And even in the face of monumental obstacles, he still has accomplished more in 6 months than the three preseidents preceeding him accomplished in 6 years. And, they are the stuff that ultimately matters to the people.

    Was Sessions fair to Trump when he took the job then recused himself. No!
    Trump is exactly correct.

    I like Trump. I wish he'd stay out of petty squabbles, but I like him more and more every day.

    The more the left attacks him, the bigger and stronger he looks to me.

    Interesting view. Sessions did not want to recuse himself, as the top lawyer for our country (not the president) he had no choice, it is part of his job. Was it unfair to Donald J. Trump? No, but DJT no longer exists, he is now POTUS. He doesn't get to have petty squabbles as commander in chief, he doesn't get to singlehandedly run the government like he did as CEO of his company. We, as a democracy, do not live under authoritarian rule. People can love his slanderous, libelist, illegal actions all they want, but he's not running celebrity apprentice anymore. He's the president of the united states of America. It's time he starts learning about how to do the job he was hired for with zero experience. If it were his company, he would have fired himself for what he has done. He needs to learn how to execute the duties of the job the minority hired him for. We the people, as his boss, need to hold him accountable for upholding the duties and laws he was hired to uphold.

    IMHO if Trump would have just kept his mouth shut the investigation would have likely only ended up as being inconclusive.

    Mueller would not have been appointed to investigate and Trump would have been able to ride it out. He would have had just had the Senate and House investigation to deal with. From what I have seen they really seemed reluctant to pursue it except for the Democrats. Having no control in either the Senate or House it would have eventually died.

    I view it as the same advice any attorney would give a client. Which is keep your mouth shut and do not freely offer any information. If you do not you give prosecutors something they may be able to use and you just may give them reasons to dig deeper.

    It makes me wonder how well Trump is doing when he is negotiating with other world leaders. He really seems to mainly act on impulse, in that exact moment with little thought of the consequences. When those consequences arise he is unable or unwilling to reflect on why. It certainly seems he does not learn from mistakes.

    It's about time. You could not write a book about the ways that the "deep state" and all their stooges have collaborated to try and destroy this great American. I find it hard to fathom it myself. After one year not a shred of evidence of any crimes or wrongdoing. The liberal swine gather daily at the foot of the New York Times and cry out "throw us another bit of filthy lies and fabrications so we can fill our gullets with more of your B.S. . "Keep it coming, as for surely, if the TRUTH is revealed we shall wither away and die".

    Trump just cannot seem to channel his position of power. He has all this cloud, yet his mind is unable to form some strategy to deal with it. (Whether for good or bad.) In his case bad but even that is destined to fail.
    So it's all chaos in his head, usually expressed by lashing out.
    I would say however, in Trumps defense, that he is as stupid as a door that still thinks it's a tree.

    So that doesn't help much...

    Trump is a bit like that person in a wheelchair. The one you see begging for money every morning while you walk to your job. Homelessness is bad and sad, so you give the poor soul some cash.
    But this is not just any soul in a wheelchair, this soul has no arms and legs, drinks through a straw and is mentally retarded.
    Terrible fate for a human being and he/she doesn't even have a bed for the night! But is it wrong to feel just a hint of relief that it ain't you? Is it wrong to value your own welbeing at such a moment?
    I guess it just re-affirms that your blessed to be of good health. It doesn't mean you don't care about the less well-of.

    That's how I feel about Trump. Every moment ''spent in his company'' makes you rejoice about being infinitely smarter than him. And of much better mental standing.
    It's the most delicious sigh of relief one can exhale!

    In fact, you could use Trump as a mental motivation to overcome any depression.
    Just remember; you can read, write and count.

    Between the three of those, Trump can't distinguish which is which...


    I should say now that I care about Trump being less well of then the the rest of humanity, intelligent and sanity wise.

    Well okay then, you can assume I do.
    Just don't expect me to write it too...

    I think Sessions DID have a choice. He did nothing that every senator or politician does every day. He met with international entities. He did nothing that needed recusing. Sessions, in his attempt to be completely above board, let some very nasty people push him into a corner.

    Now look at Muller's conflict of interests: He is a long-time close friend of Comey's; he cannot delegate to his subordinates because all are all big donors to Hillary's campaign and one worked for her foundation! Sessions should dismiss Muller and appoint a second investigator.

    At thhis point Muller is not investigating a crime, he is looking for one.

    Everyday is costs us big bucks to pay for this witch hunt - and again I say: typical leftist lack of regard for the working folk and for taxpayer revenues.

    Russia screwed around in our election.
    Some say to help Trump win.
    Others say to screw with our democracy.

    Trump supporters better hope if was to help Trump win.
    If it was the other, expect Russia to interfere in 2018 on the side of the Democrats.

    What better way to screw with America's democracy then give the House (and maybe the Senate) to the Dems.
    Their first course of action would be impeachment, or continuation of the investigation if Trump ends it.
    And Trump would get nothing passed through Congress.
    Especially if Dems have the Senate.

    There are obvious problems with this. Aside from this person appointing only Democrat donors and demonstrating partiality, to extend the remit to business dealings is to assure "something" - if I do a deal with a big Russian businessman I'm basically assured to be dealing with someone with Mafia connections. Entirely "innocent" deals on Trump's part will now be incorrectly flagged as inappropriate. I'm not sure why this is being allowed to go ahead on this basis.

    It is documented he was aware of Russia meddling.

    Trump probably won't get impeached. Almost certainly won't while congress is Republican controlled.

    It's funny to me that you are critical of US new media when Russian media is exclusively government controlled propaganda. I personally don't get my news from television. I read newspapers, listen to radio, and read credible news websites. Anyone who does get their information from TV is probably not very informed, and maybe actually being misinformed

    With Republicans in control of all three branches of Government how exactly are the Democrats obstructing anything?
