After Jim Justice finishes speaking, Trump says, not trying to be funny, that Justice is "6-foot-11." Justice is 6-foot-7.

"He's a big man. He's ALL man," Trump says.

Trump says he would campaign more but is held back by the Secret Service, because there are so many Secret Service agents. He says he might make "a few trips without them." (.............)


This seems like a poor idea

This tweet sums up my opinion on what the media needs to do: https://twitter.com/DavidCornDC/status/1032021601456476160

Reporters need to keep asking Graham (and the other 14 Senators who voted to impeach/convict Clinton who are still there) why they voted to convict and remove Clinton for lying about a sex scandal and how it's different than Cohen now implicating that Trump instructed him to commit a federal crime to hide a sex scandal.

Fun Fact: That means the first two members of Congress to endorse Trump (Collins - NY, not the Senator) are now indicted.

I don't think this is appreciated enough. When trump said "drain the swamp" did he actually mean "follow me and we'll make it the greatest swamp anyone has ever seen"?

Cohen's lawyer says that Cohen has information and would be "more than happy to" share with Mueller all he knows "not just about the obvious possibility of a conspiracy to collude and corrupt the American democracy system in 2016 election, which the Trump Tower meeting was all about, but also knowledge about the computer crime of hacking and whether or not Mr. Trump knew ahead of time about that crime and even cheered it on."

So I've been reading about the trial of King Charles I of England. After initially promising one of his biggest supporters that no harm would come to him, he gave in to political pressure and gave royal assent to Parliament's bill of attainder convicting the man of treason, and allowed him to be executed. It didn't save the king, who ended up following him to execution at the hands of Parliament.

At the king's trial, his defense was solely that no court had jurisdiction to try the king and legally, the king can do no wrong. Although legally the king was clearly correct, and 350 years of subsequent British caselaw have confirmed these principles, it didn't stop the court created by Parliament to try the king from finding him guilty of treason.

I guess what I'm getting from this is Trump should probably pardon Manafort right now, to maximize his chances of staying in power.

This looks fake to me. Why was the tweet deleted?


Probably because Fox later sent out a more appropriate notification

Weigels not in the business of fake news


Is there any other confirmation of this? I could obviously be wrong, but I would think something like that would be all over a lot of the news sites I visit but I haven't seen anything.

I feel very badly for Paul Manafort and his wonderful family. Justice took a 12 year old tax case, among other things, applied tremendous pressure on him and, unlike Michael Cohen, he refused to break - make up stories in order to get a deal. Such respect for a brave man!


https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump/status/1032259660378779648?s=21

A large number of counts, ten, could not even be decided in the Paul Manafort case. Witch Hunt!

Michael Cohen plead guilty to two counts of campaign finance violations that are not a crime. President Obama had a big campaign finance violation and it was easily settled!

This is generalizing, but I view it as a conservative caste system power thing

Like, generally in the conservative ideology, the man is the head of the household, and the woman is beneath him.

So heres a lower caste of people they CAN look down on to make them feel better about themselves

He is definitely going to pardon manafort. That said, a democratic senator was on CNN saying they needed to push through a bill to not allow the president pardon powers for Manafort. And, I am pretty sure that is not constitutional. President has pardon powers.

It's not, you'd need a constitutional amendment

That said, Trump pardoning Manafort (or even more drastically his family or himself) could very well be grounds for impeachment.
