I am just supposed to believe this because Barr told us so, because there is no evidence that Donnie colluded, that the evil wicked Dossier is unsubstantiated, that Democratic candidates didn't win in 2018 because of the collusion issue, and Donnie is gonna hurt anybody who ever said there was collusion..
Well, bullshit.
I heard on Morning Jerk this morning that we are supposed to believe (he doesn't believe it either, btw) that Donnie asked for Russian help, he received Russian help, he benefitted from Russian help, and he rewarded Russian help with the (s)election of 2016. But, according to Barr, Fox, and Trumpco, we are supposed to believe that Donnie didn't assist with Russian help.
We actually know this is not true, because Manafort gave polling data to the Russians. That, Donnie, is called assistance.

(25,473 posts)Bob Barr was a nutty conservative Republican from GA who led the impeachment of Clinton.
He lied, too, but not in the Mueller case. As far as we know, anyway.

This is another dt spin; everyone needs to fight back against it.

(28,810 posts)i watched a couple minutes on sunday of scarborough and it was enough. there is a huge coverup being orchestrated in front of our faces and my frustration level is too high to even engage. i feel pretty devastated. can't give up on democracy, but i can give up tv news for now.

(7,142 posts)I only watch Nicolle Wallace and Rachel Maddow. All of cable news has been pushing the right wing narrative, I have been shouting this for decades. msnbc isn't liberal, it simply puts a liberal slant to the right wing narrative.
If our M$M were truly unbiased Trump would have been impeached by now.
We need a Daniel Ellsberg. It's time we stopped playing by the books, it's time we stopped bringing a knife to a gun fight.

(9,426 posts)the gop defends tRump, a person of glaringly obvious inferior morals. He is a sub-standard human being, corrupt, lying, low class crook. He is a wanna-be Mafia Don. Imagine for a moment if he were a democratic president? The gop would have already impeached and imprisoned him. Yet, here they are, defending every shallow tweet and ignorant statement he makes. Covering for him at every turn. WHY? McConnell and Graham are worthless as "representatives". They are busy kissing tRump's ass, no time for any REAL work.
