Some folks think it is possible that some embarrassing stuff on the Cock Holster is going to be released soon, probably starting in Europe. Seems like it could happen if heads of other nations are tired of dumpster. Everything is speeding up now, it seems. Thoughts?

(8,197 posts)What he's done has completely undermined our democracy. He will come across as almost mythical in strength and wit which is absolutely what he wants. Don't think for a second we're the only country he's getting one up on- just like Trump isn't the only puppet. At this point Putin can unleash the dogs, pull the first Jenga piece and watch it all. fall. down.
The Trump supporters will lose their fucking minds. This is a powder keg- someone is about to light a match. When we turn on each other and the government is in ruins, Putin will officially have won.

I'm guessing criminal or treasonous.

"Maintaining public trust in the integrity of our elections as well as our institutions, such as the FBI, is of the utmost importance," said Congressman Paulsen. "For 10 months, the FBI has been investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election. The extraordinary decision to fire Director Comey definitely raises questions which must be answered. I believe these circumstances call for an independent investigation that the American people can trust with confidence."

I think it has to be either something criminal or treasonous to make a difference in speeding up his exit.

(10,125 posts)A lot of the white, government-in-the-bedroom hollier-than-thou anti-abortion Christians who support Trump would jump ship. The groper would have to go.
I'd rather your scenario - he goes to jail. But I'd appreciate as justice it if he suffered the humiliation that he's perpetrated on so many others.

Back to my "kompromat" reading on Twitter - There are some very interesting tweets about this subject on there. You can read along with me here:

pnwmom
(108,978 posts)seems to be connecting it to a briefing he got today from an intelligence official, which Schindler will report as news tomorrow. And he says the story is big.
So it could be arrests, or maybe something else.

So he appears to be indicating some kind of resistance effort coming from the right.
(And, perhaps not incidentally, a lot of people in the intelligence community have a rightward lean.)

(67,109 posts)everything he stands for. My hunch is the GOP, TPTB, will try to dump him for some reason. Also, the stress must be really getting to him, he can't control the universe. He's a LOSER, and eventually that will sink in, hard to tell what might happen.

(4,354 posts)This will accelerate now. Trump can't put this back in the box.
It's amazing that Sen. Schumer said in a presser yesterday that he told Trump firing Comey would be a mistake. My bet is that Trump looks at everything democrats tell him with great suspicion, maybe even paranoia. So I'm sure he dismissed Schumer's thoughts immediately.

(61,695 posts)Heads of state and law enforcement in Europe have gotten fed up with ownership of gigantic projects by consortiums of unknown and unnamed players. They are tryjng to change laws to make ownership more transparent, I heard.
Having real and detailed information on who DCHT is in bed with could disqualify him, at least ethically, from national security matters, for starters. What if he has real estate projects partnered with the Iranian National Guard, for example?
