why does he have to stack the court in his favor? Why does he think he gets to choose his FBI Agents? If he's innocent as he claims...let the evidence come out and lets all make our own decisions. He has a minor choice in his jury, thats it. He's so rotten guilty w decades of bad behavior w russia'r that he stinks to high Heaven.
To compound the issue, he's dismantling our Country. We are being harmed everyday. This isn't a joke, and a cabal of gop Senators and Congressmen can't hinder or obstruct an investigation. I hate to call for drastic measures, but, when he is convicted, the death penalty should be considered. General Mike Flynn and Manafort as well. A signal has to be sent that we will not compromise our country for greed and misplaced hubris. (And a 28% support group of Americans.) We send kids to college to get smart. A vast majority of us are smart enough to know whats going on.
We don't like russia'r...and we don't consent to surrendering the New Cold War to the auspices of putin. Not going to happen. We need to get some spine about the severity of what's going on.
Happy Monday!

"let the evidence come out and lets all make our own decisions."
Everything tells me that is the direction we are going.
"the death penalty should be considered."
That's on you. No one else. Calling for the death penalty for people who have been convicted of nothing is only one step more barbaric than calling for the death penalty for those who have been found guilty of heinous crimes.
"We need to get some spine about the severity of what's going on. "
There is a major difference between getting a spine and flat out being barbaric and losing sense of who we are. Nothing about calling for the death of others has to do with a spine.

(7,725 posts)He can put in middle of the road judges like the gop demanded from Obama.HE's appointing judges who will promote political agendas, and him going free, and nullify juriprudence for a generation...and defer to corporations. How's that working out?
The death penalty is on me. It's alo in the military code of justice. Not my personal law. 2 of the # are considered military and should be the LAST to upend the country they swore to protect. Citizens have died as judgement for less. Im not a fan of Capital Punishment, but, there's a line, and Treason and Espionage is.
Thanks for your 2 cents. and comment.

"HE's appointing judges who will promote political agendas, and him going free, and nullify juriprudence for a generation...and defer to corporations. How's that working out? "
That should be expected. That said, I don't know what the phrase "nullify jurisprudence for a generation" means.
"Im not a fan of Capital Punishment"
Please read your words above.
"The death penalty is on me. It's alo in the military code of justice. Not my personal law."
No one has to promote and support something because it is currently on the books.
Trump should never be killed by any government.

(7,725 posts)He should be expected to be fair. Judges are NON PARTISAN anyway. Kind of part of the deal.
Merrick Garland was no Liberal, and he was blocked roundly. We just disagree.
Have a good week.

(7,725 posts)Until this man and his minions are removed NC...I think we as Liberals need to allow ourselves to fight like they do. Otherwise...life as we know it is going to change...for 340 million people, who signed on for a different idea of freedom and prosperity. Just mo. Just a comment.

(30,481 posts)Or by thinking they should appoint a centrist to the court.
Fight like they do. Lets look at that.
Calling for the murder of those who have not been found guilty of crimes and acting as if the SC appointee should be a centrist isn't going to get us the house, senate, judiciary, and executive branch. That's not how it works.
If you want to fight like they do look no further and their love of local politics over the last century. That's how they fight. The rest is just a distraction. They are bottom up and it's a winning strategy in politics. We fight top down which doesn't work. Thankfully, many have gotten that over the last ten years. Obama has helped a lot in that area as has a reshuffling of the DNC. That is fighting like they do. Not becoming barbaric like them.
