Trump lashes out after Cohen, Manafort blows
By Jordan Fabian - 08/21/18 09:36 PM EDT

President Trump capped off one of his worst days as president by lashing out at familiar targets, hours after two of his former confidants were simultaneously found guilty in federal criminal probes.
 
Trump's longtime personal lawyer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty on Tuesday in New York to violating campaign-finance law by arranging hush money payments for two women, saying he did so in coordination with Trump.
 
Minutes later in a Virginia courtroom, Trump's former campaign chairman Paul Manafort was convicted on eight counts of bank and tax fraud charges brought by special counsel Robert Mueller.
 
The president responded to the twin legal blows ahead of a campaign event in West Virginia, telling reporters the Manafort conviction was a "disgrace" that had "nothing to do with Russian collusion."
 
Trump said he feels "badly for both" Manafort and Cohen, but did not comment further on his former lawyer's guilty plea.

No, not at all!

This headline is ridiculous and misleading.

The angry Tweets will come in the morning.

Unless a grown-up takes his phone away from him and lets him just scream into his pillows.

Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

He would do well to keep quiet.  They broke the law.

I am only logging back on after leaving because of the obnoxious pro-Trump people here to say...

Happy now? We could have had Cruz. Instead, you gave us a Democrat wet dream.

How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!
