Ok lusty, I'm feeling a bit more energetic today.
First of all I didn't say convicted, I said indicted and at the end of that politifact article your correct it wasn't 215, but it was 142! That is quit a bit more than 0!
What do you mean no convictions?
Stone, Manafort, Cohen?
And Flynn right now is sweating it out waiting for the other shoe to drop.
He has already pissed off the judge sitting in his case, we all know that's not good!
And the reasons there haven't been more convictions is because Trump and his allies are performing legal gymnastics to prevent them, just like they are doing for Flynn!
And you remember Rodger Stone, he's the one that recently said after his pardon that Trump should just assume control of the government.
Yeah that guy, now that has no weight as of yet but he was or perhaps still is one of Trumps advisors.
If I have the sequence of events correct you must be convicted before you can be pardoned!
And Flynn Is desperately hoping that Trump is in office after his conviction so he can get one of Trumps party favor pardons!
Even Nixon wasn't this Brazen!
And when I was talking about the republicans selling out their country I was referring to the voters, it is obvious that Trump is incredibly corrupt but they will vote for him anyhow!
Your right Trump is not in this for financial gain, he's in this for the power that he has apparently became drunk on!
He's a aspiring dictator!
He is an admirer of Putin, likes the way he dose things in Russia!
I dont know if also includes Putin making all of us including Trump look like fools but it could be!
Trump dosen't mind looking foolish he dose it all of the time, and hes good at it!
He's too stupid to even know he stupid!
And if the Bidens were doing in Ukraine what they are being accused
of "by Trump Oh yes we should all believe that", then this surely would have been a done deal ending in a conviction, I mean look at who is our attorney general, if there was proof instead of trump's baseless claims I sure Bill Barr would have seen to it by now!
He's not stupid, just corrupt!
And even in his corruption he can't fabricate the evidence to get them!
But one thing that is beyond dispute is that Trump "DID TRY TO BRIBE AN ALLY THAT IS AT WAR WITH OUR ENEMY, BY USING CONGRESSIONALLY APPROVED FUNDS!
just because the fellow travelers in the Senate refused to impeach means nothing, we know its true and you know its true.
Imagine if Obama had done this!
And should we get into Trumps Chinese bank account, or the fact that he paid $186,000 in taxes to the Chinese government, and $750.00 to ours!
And before his presidency 0!
I think we all know that's no supposed to be.
And never mind that Biden and Harris released their taxes shortly after throwing their hat in the ring.
This motherfucker fought hard not to, now I understand why, well I not stupid, I knew why before!
And then when the stupid fuck got sick went to the very best and brightest doctors that we have, to the tune of over $100,000, otherwise he would probably be dead!
He then went on to tell the boneheads that follow him that they have to dominate the virus!
What a fucking douchbag!
I really dont get into political sparring very much, but what I see and I'm not hearing this shit from the Dems but seeing it for myself, alot of it coming from our horses ass in Chief's mouth!
And as I previously said we have retired general officers, admirals some of them former chiefs of staff speaking out against this guy! That is not a step taken lightly by them!
But they are upholding the oath they took so many years ago to defend and uphold the constitution.
And when you are let go from the military you are not released from that oath, I know I wasn't!
They and I took the same oath that Trump took!
Hey dawg, don't misconstrue my silence as tacit agreement with you. I don't spend all day on this site. Sometimes a few days may go by before I respond.
Re. your claim that Trump and Republicans in general will readily "sell out their country" for personal (or family) financial gain, isn't that EXACTLY what Joe Biden is accused of doing in Ukraine and China?
According to Forbes magazine which has been tracking billionaires since 1980, Trump's net worth has dropped from $3.7 billion to $2.5 billion since he took office. If he's selling out the country for financial gain, he's doing a terrible job of it!

Unlike Biden, Trump made his fortune in the private sector, not by being a career swamp dweller who lets his son and other family members enrich themselves by selling access and influence.
