All this "dictatorship" and "Russians" and "IMPEACH!" stuff is either consequence of butthurt Left because t-RUMP "stole" election from a highly qualified, and extremely deserving womyn Hillary, or attempts to rile up D base so they would go and vote. I am not sure which is the correct explanation, may be both. Or may be a smokescreen behind which politicians can keep looting while population argues about stupid stuff. Last one seems possible because investigations have not found anything of consequence in NY REALTOR (TM) activities in mob-infested 80's, which seems impossible.
Take into account that even most Republicans congress critters can't stand him. He'd be impeached in 2 seconds if it looked like he was taking the dictator route. While your average Joe in the military doesn't want to get shot at, the military brass are in all reality not happy we haven't gotten into another conflict. So I'd be surprised if they'd back him, which would 100% HAVE to happen for this scenario to play out.

Agreed, in a matchup between Golden Don and Simple Joe, the Democrat is gonna get creamed. No way people want to risk another Yuuuge Recession by electing a bumbling idiot. Especially now that The Donald has proven he can crank the economy up to 11 while keeping the peace with world enemies and standing strong for American interests. Oh and also protecting our Constitution instead of trying to find ways to eliminate it in order to implement a Progressive Utopia (TM).
Trump is doing just fine, perhaps even great in all the metrics that actually affect the lives of regular working Americans. They’d have to go full retard to elect Simple Joe.

Agreed - very selective interpretation. For example, according to the data from the article (ADL heat map), this counts as "right wing extremist murder". Apparently right wing extremists murder their own family members for racial or extremist reasons. They are grasping at straws to find more right-wing murders

Did Farron point out that MSNBC, CNN, ABC, NBC, etc. spent the entire Presidency of Obama carrying his water? Or the entire Trump Presidency bashing him?
That the Honeymoon Period afforded every President, in a dire and dark break with Tradition and Precedence, was even denied Trump?
It's entertaining that the Left ignores the fact that 90% of Print, Radio, and Television Media in Existence is 92% Negative on Trump.
That's not including Social Media controlled by Democrat Fanatic Big Tech.
Par for the course for the Authoritarian Left. They ignore that 90% of Media is under their total control, and blame the 10% they don't totally control for all their problems in convincing people that shit isn't shit.
The other funny thing is that the Left IS the Establishment, but still think they're revolutionaries, which is most entertaining when talking to college students parroting their Teachers, Professors, Deans, and the majority of the Media Outlet's Official Opinion and acting like they're all rebels for justice and shit.

Sorry guys, nobody at the IRS wants to own up to it, in fact it has "DRAFT" stamped on it.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2019/05/leak-irs-mystery-memo-says-trump-must-give-tax-docs-to-congress-unless-he-asserts-executive-privilege/
A confidential IRS draft memo says President Trump must turn over his tax documents to Congress… unless he invokes executive privilege.
A copy of the 10-page memo, which was obtained by the Washington Post, says the disclosure of tax returns to the committee “is mandatory, requiring the Secretary to disclose returns, and return information, requested by the tax-writing Chairs.”
The memo was reportedly penned by a lawyer in the Office of Chief Counsel several months ago and did not represent the agency’s “official position.”
The mystery memo is stamped “DRAFT,” does not reference Trump and it wasn’t even signed.
The author of the memo is unknown and IRS Chief Rettig and chief counsel Michael Desmond weren’t even aware of it until the Washington Post reached out to them for comment.
According to the Post, the IRS says the memo was never even forwarded to the Treasury.
Secretary Mnuchin told Democrats that he’s ready to take the battle for Trump tax returns to court and now all of a sudden this mystery memo, written by a mystery lawyer surfaces in a leak to the Washington Post that argues Congress has the authority to access tax returns. How convenient.

SO stupid.
If you're innocent of stealing horses, you don't obstruct investigators from confirming your innocence.
Oh, I almost forgot. Truth and facts and people that write truthful fact based stories that reflect negatively on TRump are part of a left wing conspiracy. THose libtards are given way too much attention for their purely subjective point of view of Trump. IT's not fair. IT can't be that Trump actually is despicable. How could that possibly be objectively true ?
It couldn't be true, right ?
And if it were, what would it say about all the people that voted for him ?
That is the reason it can't be true.

Has Mueller? Has the news media? Has another foreign country knowing it could cause our political system to go into turmoil?
There are more parties/persons trying to find dirt, probably more than any politician in the history of the world and what..... a big fat nothing.
People can keep wasting their time stomping their feet over Trump or enjoy life. The almost 3 year temper tantrum can stop at some point. And I'm not saying give Trump carte blanche to do what he pleases and not keep an eye on him, but this is making a lot of people look delusional from someone that rests fairly in the middle of the political spectrum.
I didn't vote for him in 2016 and I'm not dead set on voting for him in 2020. Things seem good, but I want to give more time to see how these tax cuts play out given we just went through our first tax season with them.
Serious question for y'all that aren't happy. Are you still going to be upset and saying the exact same stuff in 2021 if he gets reelected? Or are you going to realize that after 5-6 years he's just a horny loudmouth that the country wants as president?

THE CHARGES AGAINST AVENATTI
CALIFORNIA
10 counts of wire fraud
Avenatti allegedly committed wire fraud by lying to five clients about their settlements from cases he represented them in.
The total sum of the money he allegedly misappropriated is $12million.
He is accused of not only hiding their payments from them but spending the money himself on private planes, repaying the IRS and funding his own businesses between 2015 and 2017.
19 counts of tax fraud
Avenatti has not filed personal income tax returns since 2010, it is claimed.
Between 2015 and 2017, his coffee company Global Baristas US, did not pay $3.2million in federal payroll taxes.
More than $2million of that figure was withheld from staff pay checks and spent by Avenatti himself, it is alleged.
2 counts of bank fraud
The two bank fraud charges relate to the original indictment and claims he submitted bogus financial information to obtain three loans totaling $4.1 million from The People's Bank in Mississippi.
The bogus information included a tax return that had never been sent to the IRS and him overstating his law firm's resources when it was on the brink of bankruptcy.
One said his firm, Eagan Avenatti, had more than $500,000 in an operating account when it only had $43,000, it is claimed.
4 counts bankruptcy fraud
Three of the bankruptcy fraud charges allege that Avenatti submitted, under penalty of perjury, monthly operating reports that failed to report all of the firm's accounts receivable in 2017.
Avenatti is charged with falsely testifying under oath during a June 2017 bankruptcy hearing by denying the firm had received any fees related to a lawsuit when Eagan Avenatti had actually received more than $1.3 million
New York case 1
Conspiracy to commit extortion
Avenatti allegedly attempted to extort Nike by saying he had information which incriminated it in a pay-for-play college basketball scandal this year.
He allegedly told the company that he would conduct an internal investigation for a $25million fee instead of exposing it.
Nike reported him.
New York case 2
Charged with misappropriating funds belonging to the ex adult film star Stormy Daniels to the tune of nearly $300,000.

Might be a while on that tho. Trump’s got another five and a half years, and then we might get lucky again. Leftists are on the wane lately, and another Trump Republican might be just the ticket.

I can answer you; I lived in Mexico before coming to California; they think the USA is crazy but they love it.
In Mexico they say "If you don't work, you don't eat." They've heard of food stamps and etc and can't believe it even exists.
Many believe that Mexico's poverty is caused by the USA somehow; politicians of the ruling PRI party repeated this crap for 71 years of their rule.
Mexican single mothers illegally in the USA feel the same way American single mothers do; "society owes me help to support my child."

Russian Oligarch? Not one Russian firm is in the Top 10 Steel Producers. There's exactly one Russian Steel Producer in the top 20, with about less than half (or much less than half) of the top 10 companies.
Most of the world's biggest companies are Indian, Chinese SEOs, Japanese, or Korean. Technically #1 is in Luxemborg but it's a merger of European and Indian steel mills. Hence the Europeans wanting us to be the sucker bagholder who soaks up Chinese SEO Steel overproduction during the tariff a while back.
Thanks to Trump, and since Standing Rock, America’s steel making cannot compete with prices of a certain Russian oligarch friend of Trump.
