Did someone say MOB? Russian/Ukrainian Mob?

Russian Mob ‘Made its Move’ on Trump in 2002 When He Was In the Hole After a 'Series of Bankruptcies': Documentary Filmmaker
https://www.alternet.org/russian-mob...es-documentary

Starting in 2002, whereas before you’re seeing incidents of money laundering… you’re seeing particularly in buildings like the Trump Soho, the Toronto tower, the Panama tower to an extent, as well, and several others in development where the there is… what certainly appears to be Russian or post-Soviet mafia money going into it,” he explained.

Bryan went on to say that the money was coming “particularly from the Ukraine-Russia gas trade, which is an incredibly mobbed up operation” and that “it’s been going in there to basically start the building process.”

This is the one area where I suspect Trump actually does have some dirty laundry. He's a global real estate investor and developer. That means it's close to 100% he's had to deal with corrupt politicians and gangsters in the US and abroad JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE in his position. So if you want to get him, I'd be willing to bet $10,00 against a lunch that he's knowingly done business with the Italian mafia in NY and Atlantic City too.

The rest of it is mostly bullshit or not illegal. The democrats and his enemies in the establishment republican party are both trying to stop him from implementing his policies (and preferable get him out of office). To do so they are using all these investigations of everyone he's ever done business with or had as part of administration trying to get then to rat on things he may have done outside of politics and the election. They have nothing on the election.

Drip, drip, drip..

“This was a meeting to get information on an opponent”: Trump changes his story on Russia meeting
In denying reports he’s worried about legal scrutiny of Donald Trump Jr., Trump made a big shift in how he talks about the Trump Tower meeting.
https://www.vox.com/policy-and-polit...tweet-trump-jr

President Donald Trump hit back at reports he’s worried his son Donald Trump Jr. could be in legal jeopardy over his involvement in the meeting in Trump Tower to get dirt on Hillary Clinton in 2016. The president’s defense: The meeting, which the administration initially wrote off as about Russian adoption, was, in fact, to get information on a political opponent. And that’s “totally legal.” But Trump himself definitely didn’t know about it.

The Trump team’s story about the Trump Tower meeting keeps changing

On June 9, 2018, Trump Jr., Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner took a meeting with a Russian lawyer and four other people with Russian ties in Trump Tower. The meeting remained secret for more than a year, until the New York Times in July 2017 began to report about its occurrence.

He just threw Jr, Manafort, Jared under the bus.
Collusion(conspiracy) in plain sight

That's what he gets from listening to Rudy

Did someone say 1st amendment?

New Poll: 43% of Republicans Want to Give Trump the Power to Shut Down Media
https://www.thedailybeast.com/new-po...hut-down-media

Freedom of the press may be guaranteed in the Constitution. But a plurality of Republicans want to give President Trump the authority to close down certain news outlets, according to a new public opinion survey conducted by Ipsos and provided exclusively to The Daily Beast.

The findings present a sobering picture for the fourth estate, with respondents showing diminished trust in the media and increased support for punitive measures against its members. They also illustrate the extent to which Trump’s anti-press drumbeat has shaped public opinion about the role the media plays in covering his administration.

All told, 43 percent of self-identified Republicans said that they believed “the president should have the authority to close news outlets engaged in bad behavior.” Only 36 percent disagreed with that statement. When asked if Trump should close down specific outlets, including CNN, The Washington Post, and The New York Times, nearly a quarter of Republicans (23 percent) agreed and 49 percent disagreed.

They want to rip this country apart even more than it already is, over nothing-burgers, all because she wasn't supposed to lose.

The saddest thing I've ever seen in my adult life when it comes to politics.

Drama Queen Alert!

1. So what? They WANT to give.......not HAVE GIVEN
2. Unlike WANT to allow illegals so the have SANCTUARY CITES in defiance of the laws.

You guys WANT to ignore the electoral college.

Geez, man get a grip - everything is not a crisis.
You don't have to cry every time you wet your pants.

I wonder if any of those apply to the Clintons and their presidential library foundation?

or what about paying Steele (foreign national) for writing the fake dossier (something of perceived value)? surely it was worth many times more than a million (a contribution).
