This could be the final nail in Trumps coffin. Trumps presidency is coming apart at the seams.

Trump has been digging his own grave for over three years. It's a really deep grave. He started to build his own coffin by trying to do the impossible. He tried to cover up a pandemic, which is an act of pure evil, It's murder plain and simple.

Now we have the report of Russia putting a bounty on our soldiers and Trump did nothing. This could seal Trumps coffin and lower into the grave he has been digging for years. In November, we will fill his grave in and bury his coffin.

attention of the 95% who believe in the trump version of the economy.

[Just a 20% drop on the 95%, would show up big in all the trump polls].

Who's mind do you think will be changed by the latest revelation? Trump's supporters are too entrenched to bail on him now. There will be denials and excuses, and no matter how lame they are, they will be accepted. We have heard three and a half years of Trumps impending doom, this is just the latest and it will not be the last. History tells us that within days or weeks there will be a new final nail.

I just hope that the cumulative failures of this president is indeed enough to send him packing, but that is not yet a sure bet.

You first have to convince them that Trump did something very wrong. It is nearly impossible to do that with people who can hear or see no evil in their political messiah. No matter what evidence that is produced to paint Trump in a bad light, it is considered fake news and attacks on the one they love.

This won’t be a tipping point, but rather another nail in the coffin. His followers are already excusing this as fake news.

"Show me St.Louis" usually reserved for fluff pieces about local businesses and reporting on local events and weather. Thats more traction than I really expected unless you watch only fox news 24/7 you are getting exposed to this story.

Honestly, I would be genuinely surprised if anything comes of it.

I would expect the rePukes to announce another round of Benghazi/email hearings. I would expect an effluence of whataboutism - Hillary and Benghazi, Obamagate, but her emails. I would expect the media to give the rePukes an open platform to spew distractions without fact checks or follow ups. And I would expect this, like so many other things, will just be flushed down the memory hole and be forgotten in a week, so that two weeks from now when someone mentions Russia paying a bounty on US soldiers people will be like "Oh, that? I forgot about that. It seems like it was so long ago."

I hope I'm wrong and this is an E.L.E. for both Trump and the rePukes, but I'm holding off on breaking out the Fitzmas tree.

until the middle of July. Right know you are seeing the Corporate Media in full out spin mode and not chasing this story. This is a killer for any Campaign,makes e-mails and hacking look like Boy Scout stuff.

Think of the Tens of Thousands of Families who have been touched by Republican Military Invasions and destabilization of whole swaths of our Globe.
