So Bloggers and Tweeters are saying Arrests tomorrow Trump/Russia

Are these the same tweeters that said Cheney and Bush are going to jail.

That the apprentice video will be released.

That a hooker video will be released.

That Trump wont last 100 days.

That votes for Clinton were destroyed.

Or are they actual Journalists who work for a paper and they dont own a blog
and they dont write articles about side boob pictures for the huffington post.

At most, some informed reports are saying arrests [font size = "+3"]possibly[/font] tomorrow. It's a very big difference, an important difference.

Please don't inaccurately skew reports just because you dislike the writers / bloggers.

Who says "I have a big secret, I will tell you later"

and you reply "Tomorrow"

and they reply "Maybe"

If it happens, your golden.

And if it doesnt you just say "well I said possibly my info was still good".

Either way you got the traffic, hits and retweets you were seeking.

You've been downplaying these sources at every opportunity, and that's certainly your prerogative. However, if arrests DO happen today, or tomorrow, or SOON (because the reporting says "as early as tomorrow&quot , will you come back with an update for us?

Trump's in for the full four years, I'd bet. Republicans are nothing if not disciplined in lining up behind the Big Daddy, no matter how bad he screws up.
