Exactly. JTFrog May 2017 #24

He was wrong. There is already PROOF of DT's guilt: he fired Comey. He even connected the firing pnwmom May 2017 #42

Listen to the interview. QC May 2017 #54

I did. The problem is that Bernie began with all kinds of reasonable things to say pnwmom May 2017 #71

Can you link to this proof of collusion? When are the indictments happening? beam me up scottie May 2017 #67

I have and I do. NCTraveler May 2017 #39

Exactly how does this 'fill his coffers'? WoonTars May 2017 #40

What he said was misleading and unhelpful. He said Democrats cannot politicize the issue -- pnwmom May 2017 #45

Can you show me where he said that? What was the exact time in the interview? beam me up scottie May 2017 #47

How does that 'fill his coffers'? WoonTars May 2017 #50

He was answering a direct question. Try listening to the interview QC May 2017 #76

I did listen to the whole thing. He starts off fine -- but then he had to throw Rethugs a lifeline pnwmom May 2017 #77

Exactly, he gave the false equivalence by saying people R B Garr May 2017 #88

That is quite curious, isn't it? beam me up scottie May 2017 #125

No, what's curious is that you can extrapolate what he says for R B Garr May 2017 #126

Thanks, Cha! n/t pnwmom May 2017 #93

Here's a rough transcript. So people can get outraged over what he actually said Crunchy Frog May 2017 #86

So he's saying "Dems cannot politicize" something he doesn't mention the GOP has been politicizing? bettyellen May 2017 #87

Here's the stupid ass trump "casually acknowledging" it.. Cha May 2017 #91

Would be nice if Sanders also gave the benefit of the doubt to Democrats. betsuni May 2017 #94

I don't get it... SpicyBoi May 2017 #137
