See the newspaper front pages on Trump's guilty men

Newspapers around the world reacted Wednesday to the bombshell news that two of President Trump's former associates — former personal attorney Michael Cohen and former campaign chairman Paul Manafort — are guilty of committing felonies.



The big picture: It was one of the most newsworthy days of 2018, and the worldwide media did not hold back in their efforts to encapsulate the threat that these men pose to Trump.

"The president has said repeatedly and correctly that he has not been implicated in any of this, and that these guilty verdicts exonerate him of any wrongdoing. For any other comments, I would refer you to outside counsel."

Is it really “news?”

That Trump was surrounded by criminals was obvious in 2016. It sold advertising. That he is still surrounded by criminals is likewise obvious.

A truly unique and newsworthy headline would be “Well duh, Trump Associates are corrupt.” That won’t happen for a very simple reason, it is an implicit admission that the press not only “covered” the horse race, but helped put it on.

I live in a red state and a red community. My friends and neighbors
do not appreciate my opposing the G.O.P.

I am planning two yard signs for my porch eaves.
Signs in the yard get stolen or destroyed.

I plan on a G.O.P. sign next to a Trump sign.

My neighbors will be pissed.

No Russian collusion. They accept evidence of vote rigging, global warming; they think the religious right is crazy and they don't buy into trickle down/free trade. Yet, following the evidence that Traitor Trump is an asset of Putin's and the Russian mob's is beyond their ability. I just don't get it.

It's as if Alex Jones admitted Sandy Hook was caused by uncontrolled gun proliferation.

Start with Alabama and check out the front pages. On many of them Manafort and Cohen are not even mentioned. This is very sad.

Thanks for providing the link. It was an eye opener for me.

Representative Duncan Hunter Jr. (Dumbshit) got indicted on 60 counts for misuse of $250,000 worth of campaign funds.



Even after Cohen admits collusion, IQ45 still states no collusion at his WV Klan rally.
