The Manure is beginning to hit the Westinghouse! the Russian connection

[Peacetrain]

The whole Paul Manafort debacle is just beginning to unwind..even in his denials.. you can see the hole he (Manafort) is falling into and Trump is going with him.. they played footsie with the Russians and this is what they will get.. the Benedict Arnold award..

https://www.yahoo.com/news/donald-trump-campaign-chief-slams-125925632.html

"The Hillary Clinton campaign has also responded to the report, saying the report raises questions about the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia. “Given the pro-Putin policy stances adopted by Donald Trump and the recent Russian government hacking and disclosure of Democratic Party records, Donald Trump has a responsibility to disclose campaign chair Paul Manafort’s and all other campaign employees’ and advisers’ ties to Russia and pro-Kremlin entities"

1. I don't think it is going to matter in the least to der drumpfenfuhrer's loyalists. they will

not believe, do not care, or will swear it is all lies from HRC and the media.

there is simply no fixing the stoooooopid.

[Peacetrain]

3. There is no help for those who embrace a person over philosophy, politics

religion or anything.. (think Jonestown).. these are a lost people.. but that does not mean the rest of us have to literally die so they can enjoy their delusions in the individual..

[blogslut]

8. His loyalists don't number enough to win the election.

This matters in that it will be one more strike against him in the minds of independents and undecided voters, come the general election.

[Hortensis]

37. +1000. ALSO many just plain old sensible conservatives.

ALSO many of the John Bircher-surfacing-as-TPer types who've always feared a secret infiltration and takeover by Russia, no matter how silly that is.

ALSO many from the end-times religious right who know that Satan's headquarters during Armageddon will be in Russia, no matter how...well, never mind.

This really isn't good for Trump. I'm curious to know if the others like Manafort working for his campaign were met strictly innocently or if any of the introductions to Trump were arranged by the Kremlin. After all, we know they're meddling in our internal politics and using Trump to do it.

11. It doesn't have to...

The Elite and Exclusive Club Trump Membership Holders thrive on despising the people they like to despise, and ain't nothin' gonna rain on their parade. However, they don't have the numbers for him to win.

This, however, might finally sink him with the "I didn't vote for Trump in the primaries, but he won by the rules and I'm going to vote for my party's candidate because Hillary is a monster" set, the establishment types who've spent the past few decades using the foamers to get their tax cuts, deregulation, and "pro business" policies.

20. I don't know. His wife is russian. His handler works for russians. COMMIES!!!

Bubba hates russia. Don't you remember the thousands of accusations of communist?!?

That was their favorite insult.

I think Bubba will NOT like this one bit.

I think he'll sink even further.

[LisaM]

32. His wife is Slovenian, not Russian.

Her father, though, is a Communist party official.

[TwistedTinkerbelle]

33. True...Bubba may hate the Russians...

But down here in very red Texas...Bubba would rather have a commie than Hillary. Not a joke. I've been told that by Trump supporters.

[MynameisBlarney]

25. Of course they won't. That's why they're called loyalists

But I think the majority of his minions hate the Russians even more than they hate Hillary.

[mgardener]

31. Older Americans

I'm 61and I remember when Russia was considered a BIG and the only threat to the US.
I should think that it would give older Trump supporters pause.
Well, if their sanity is still intact.

[Stinky The Clown]

2. They need to push this one HARD, but only after we are sure it isn't a ratfuck.

And I would not put a ratfuck past them.

[Peacetrain]

4. Well there is no denying Manafort worked for the Russian backed dictator..

and all these other things start coming out.. this one is bad.. really bad..

[Iliyah]

5. The GOP was fully aware of this.

I guess the USA first, and the USA greatness means nada because of money, power and more money. The GOP is party first and money, power and more money.

[Peacetrain]

6. The day Trump stood up and asked the Russians to hack the Democrats..

to interfere in our political process.. there was no stopping the threads that were starting to be pulled in the Russian/Trump connection.. and if the Republican Party does not get away from this pronto.. they will be scarred for a decade.. if not longer

[roamer65]

7. The suspense is terrible...

17. :)

[AgadorSparticus]

24. Yep! It's like watching a pot boil.

[Dustlawyer]

9. All the more reason for Publicly Funded Elections!

We need to eliminate the monies influence in our politics, both foreign and domestic!

[FighttheFuture]

29. +1000!!!

[anamandujano]

34. Unfortunately, the voters for this reside in congress and they don't want it.

[napkinz]

10. "Benedict Arnold award" ...

[Peacetrain]

13. Awesome!!

[napkinz]

18. :)

[MynameisBlarney]

27. Consider that meme stole as f*ck!

HAHA!!!

LUVIT!

[workinclasszero]

28. Thats the POS for real!

[napkinz]

36. yep ...

[napkinz]

38. Donald Dump!

[Qutzupalotl]

12. This is a well-phrased request.

Shame him into releasing info (which he won't), and shame him harder if he doesn't. This will only snowball.

Better to leverage public opinion than governmental powers in this case.

[roamer65]

14. I just couldn't resist.

[Peacetrain]

15. Yeppers!!!!!

[napkinz]

16. love the clips you're posting!

[calimary]

30. OMG!!!!! ROFL!!!!!

[ToxMarz]

19. is it possible for a President to be denied a security clearance

could they force disclosure of his tax returns (not necessarily public) in order to determine an conflicts/eligibility.

[getagrip_already]

23. uhmmm, no

The president has the ultimate power to classify/declassify anything, and literally has access to anything and everything. They can't disclose personal information with impunity since that is covered under existing law, but they can look at it.

But in a criminal investigation, they can use even nsa collected info, although it is unlikely to be used in court if it would compromise methods.

[lindysalsagal]

21. "Hanging around with communists." Rinse, repeat. This will stick with the GOP base.

This is donald's end.

[jtuck004]

22. It may be that about 1/2 the folks reading this will say to themselves...

"Westinghouse"?

It might have a wider understanding if it were a Walmart Lasko

It's gonna create a much smaller mess when a 1/2 lb of shit hits the plastic. But it might knock it over and it will burn itself up.

Our culture has lost something else, it appears.

[NightWatcher]

26. Laskos are cheap plastic and a decent turd will break that.

An all metal old skool fan will send some of that excrement right back in the direction of where it came from.

[Blue_Tires]

35. Epic kick
