What will you do if Trump manages to evade law?

[Le Gaucher]

Looks like Muuller isn't going to indict the Fucking bastard.

Our generic advantage at the polls are dwindling, (because people are tired as shit ?) Russia and Koch brothers are geared up to fuck with our elections once more... And it's possible ( or even probable) that Republicans keep majority in both houses.


Whatever is left of the Mueller investigation will be shut down


I, for one, will not count it out. Republicans stole the Scotus seat didn't they? Did they pay a price?

They have learnt that that subverting democratic norms will be rewarded as long as they 'win'

Assuming all of the above comes to pass - what will you do? Will you let yourselves be shocked when something like the above will happen?

I am starting to prepare myself mentally that Trump is going to get away with it.

[honest.abe]

1. We are all doomed if that happens.

It wont. The courts will save us if nothing else.

[Marie Marie]

2. Not sure but I am beginning to lose hope that Trump

will face any consequences for any of his crimes. It is disheartening.

[XRubicon]

3. Probably nothing.

But that doesn't mean we should give up. When we win the house we should impeach if there are crimes exposed even if we know the Senate will not convict.

Let everyone involved be counted for where they stood in the history books.

[Eliot Rosewater]

4. I expect a narrow house majority, no senate majority and nothing happens.

Democrats cant impeach unless they have overwhelming majority in the Senate, they wont even have a one seat majority possibly.

I think enough Americans simply dont care, add them to the racist filth that supports the traitor and I think you have your answer.

HAVING said that I am going to fight until our last breath.

5. Obviously this orange piece of shit can do whatever he wants

1. Full clearance of his corrupt "son-in-law"
2. What's his fucking daughter doing except selling her slave shop shit somewhere?
3. At least a billion going into their fucking coffers every six months
4. No collusion!!!!! which is absolutely absurd
5. Gaslighting the country
6. Gaslighting the media (which, in the most part, is whoring out for them as well)

[tazkcmo]

6. Protest

And never stop until justice is served.

[rzemanfl]

7. bookmarking n/t

[gratuitous]

8. Guess I'll just curl up in a ball on the floor

Because that's what some people want.

[smirkymonkey]

9. Yep, you noticed that too?

I am not buying the fact that he is winning over anyone but his hardcore base and is most likely losing his less fervent supporters. Congress and the media may be enabling him, but we still have the power of the vote and can still change things for the better. Never forget that.

[mythology]

15. The fetal position seems to be what some want

I don't get the whole Eeyore thing.

[dameatball]

10. I am not that depressed yet, but I do enjoy my wine on the porch, so there is that

[DFW]

11. He has gotten away with nearly everything for decades

I think it would come as a total shock to him if he were NOT to get away with something. He is Colonel Jessup from "A Few Good Men" without the erudition. "I'm being accused of a crime?" he asks with total incredulity.

[Nay]

32. Well, exactly. Did he ever go to jail for all the stuff he did over the years? Of course

not. He bought or bribed or bullied his way out of everything. He's still doing it.

[BigmanPigman]

12. Lawrence Tribe said that Mueller

should really be indictment and unreal it in 2020 or 2024 when it will actually have a chance of being used by a govt that isn't the same group that we have now. 538 had an article about what could happen if we don't get a blue wave in the midterms. It is pretty sobering.

I think a lot of people are thinking of this as a real outcome and we have to be ready mentally. I will start stockpiling Xanax like a squirrel with his nuts before winter.

[Volaris]

13. The justice system will catch up with him eventually.

Even if it takes till he's out of office, he WILL be indicted by somebody, he WILL be found guilty (cause he is) and he WILL die in prison.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

14. Never surrender

[PubliusEnigma]

16. The concern is strong with this one!

[Solly Mack]

17. Move on?

[Thomas Hurt]

18. gonna have to mobilize the apathetic non-voters

vote the SOB out.

[C_U_L8R]

19. I'll be more liberal and progressive than ever... no matter what happens to Trump

I'll support and vote for liberal and progressive candidates at every level of community and government
I'll endorse liberal and progressive education programs in our schools
I'll donate (time and money) to liberal and progressive causes
I'll buy from liberal and progressive brands, products, retailers and providers
I'll hire liberal and progressive employees and promote my liberal and progressive co-workers
and... I'll promote the undeniable positivity of liberal and progressive values at every opportunity

[Stallion]

20. I Remain Confident that Mueller will Issue a Report Clearly Justifying Impeachment

...if Congress does not impeach and convict then its up to the final Constitutional check and balance--the voting booth. If the America people don't punish those candidates who refuse to impeach and convict then that is a reflection of ourselves.

[LakeArenal]

21. It's all just speculation.

Be patient grasshoppers.

[Stinky The Clown]

22. Is "learnt" a common term in St Pete?

[AncientGeezer]

25. What's the insinuation? I use learnt as past tense all the time.

St. Pete...you weren't suggesting St Petersburg were you?

[rzemanfl]

26. He weren't. Much.

[AncientGeezer]

31. Well played...

[Thekaspervote]

23. You are saying out loud what many of us are thinking!

Having said that, we cannot and should not look at the dark side as if we can’t win. England had had Churchill and we had FDR. Great minds that rose to the challenge and won in much worse times than these. History is with us. We must never give in!!!

[NightWatcher]

24. If Rule of Law is out the window, then we're no longer bound by it either.

Have fun kiddies.

[still_one]

27. Vote Democratic

[beachbum bob]

28. Vote, vote, vote...register others and have them vote. We have an antidote

That doesn't involve handwringing and complaining. Called getting off our asses and doing.

[RockRaven]

29. My state Attorney General will be getting an earful about whether or not he/she is doing their job

It seems unlikely Trump will get out from under all of the state criminal charges. Too many states, too many crimes, too much evidence.

[Cicada]

30. Trump will tarnish the Republican brand, they're toast

Virtually every young person dislikes Trump. A huge wave of young people will with time vote and with time Republicans will be wiped out. Trump going to jail or note is trivial compared to affordable health care, better economic prospects for all. Trump will “win” but it will be pyrhic victory.

[Hoyt]

33. Need to quit tying our hopes to Mueller. If it happens great. But there are plenty of issues to

attack trump and GOPers on that are getting lost in the investigation.

If Mueller has any evidence -- that trump can't say he was not directly aware of it -- it needs to be reported by the summer. I don't think obstruction will get him. Russian money and stuff might get his kids and some aides, but without direct evidence, ignorant white wingers aren't going to turn on trump. And truthfully, I'm not so sure a jury will convict some of these guys. trump supporters knew exactly what he was when they voted for him, so they aren't going to care.

[MariaCSR]

34. How do you know Mueller won't indict?

[cynatnite]

35. I don't know if Mueller will indict or not...

Either way, our best hope lies in at least winning the house. That will at least halt tRump in his tracks.

It's reversing the damage tRump has done that will be the problem.

[Kilgore]

36. We Are Scroomed!!!!!!

Screwed + Doomed!!!!-
