I just got the overwhelming feeling we've been set up... [View all]

call me crazy and please dissuade me.

MTG comes out ahead of the vote and demands the release of the files. but never once has she ever said that trump was in them or had any suspicions that he was in them. (convenient out)

the orange asshole drags his feet. then does a sudden and complete about face and says "oh just release them already".

and this is because I think they have been scrubbing and recreating the files. (which we will only probably see a 10th of)

then the vote happens and it's virtually unanimous. Suddenly all the repukes are on board?

mtg whips everyone up into a froth and gets some of her "base" to get all angry against her (good coverage both for her back and to keep herself in the headlines) and claims she doesn't care that they are angry because "the truth" needs to come out.

the truth does need to come out, but not the repukes version of the truth, which we are about to be witness to.

this was an elaborate play by both the orange asshole and his ever dutiful water carrier mtg.

on edit. and it appears that the repuke controlled senate is going to pass it.

On edit: more over I won’t be the least surprised if mtg and the orange asshole are buddy buddy again in about a month. Thus getting spilt maga morons back into the fold

never said they were geniuses, just that we got played so they could edit the files. Javaman Nov 18 #5
It's not even a trail -- it's a neon billboard. Beartracks Nov 18 #21
