The Mueller probe... What a crock. Mueller has no authority to do anything vs. Trump.True, Mueller can't ask for a bill for Rump, but if the Grand Jury decides to write a true bill, Mueller can't stop it, nor can Congress. SCOTUS would then have to decide if POTUS is a member of Congress traveling to a session of Congress or not. Lets hope they go strict constructionist and the founders knew what language they intended when they wrote it. After all the founders were seriously worried about despots so they very well may have intended POTUS to be fully subject to the civil and criminal laws while in office. |

What US$20 million hush money that Trump paid? You are quite right that Donald paid $130,000 hush money, but I never said that was illegal, which makes it further curious that he denied it. And you are quite right that he is trying to collect $20 million. He much prefers to make money than spend it. If it amounts to intimidation or extortion, then it certainly could be illegal. Maybe that is the great business acumen that his supporters are so fond of? Whether this results in impeachment and removal remains to be seen. The people who voted for Donald but don't want Mike Pence should have thought of that before. It was a clear possibility from the beginning. If you didn't vote for Donald I wonder why you are supporting him? I don't see anything he has done in office to warrant it. |

He is supporting McCabe over the laws of the land. That is amusing. Which laws are you referring to? Which land? |

It seems that Trump only paid US$130,000.00 to her to sign an NDA (non-disclosure agreement) on the subject Trump has paid nothing. Cohen has said he paid the US$130,000.00 personally. And Trump has not disclosed any payment, which he would have had to do. I'm not sure Cohen can sue Stormy about something Trump did or didn't do. If Cohen is acting on Trump's behalf, why didn't Trump sign and pay. If Trump did sign and pay why hasn't he declared the payment? |

A confirmation? At least you don't get into deeper waters in areas you don't understand. You just give up at the outset. |

It seems that Trump only paid US$130,000.00 to her to sign an NDA (non-disclosure agreement) on the subject If Cohen disburses money on behalf of a client without autorization, that could be an ethical violation. But that is somewhat beside the point. You seriously believe that Donald did not authorize it? Or maybe you are presenting the more realistic scenario that he gives his lawyer blanket authority to try to hush up all such embarrassing claims. There may be a lot of them. Now that we are on the subject, I always thought that one reason Donald did not disclose his tax returns (other than the obvious - he doesn't want certain sources of income from certain countries known), was that he did not want certain deductions revealed. Who knows what payments he has made? We won't get them from you, or your political group, whatever it is. |

BTW: McCabe, as a Civil Servant, has many resources to fight his termination and loss of pension. But his problem would be that all the evidence will be made public. If McCabe doesn't... If he wins which I believe he will, that evidence being made public will not hurt him, that would not be a problem but a boon. It will only further expose the corrupt POTUS, who as you repeatedly was lawfully elected. Being lawfully elected does not exempt you from being corrupt. I also quote someone who is knowledgable of posting. Ageless |

If they do agree that Cohen is acting on Trump's behalf, then Cohen's US$130,000.00 was an illegal-in-kind donation to the Trump campaign. |

The Mueller probe... What a crock. Mueller has no authority to do anything vs. Trump Heh.... https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2017/06/08/sitting-presidents-cant-be-prosecuted-probably/?utm_term=.eefe6c5e779f
Note 1: LEFT-CENTER BIAS https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/washington-post/ Note 2: The author of the above article from the Washington Post I quoted was Assistant Attorney General for National Security under President Obama from April 2014 to October 2016. ---------------------------- The Washington Post is a left-leaning newspaper and the author knows what he is writing about. ---------------------------- Do you REALLY want to establish the precedent of prosecuting a sitting President???? That would virtually immediately become 'situation normal' in the already bitter... politics... between the two major parties here in the US... The Ds and the Rs... A little jurisdiction shopping around the country to find one that would charge the President with something, and bingo... instant paralysis of much of the Federal Government... Clyde from time to time mentions giving your friends power... you will have to deal with your enemies having it... In this concern he is 100% right. Don't use a weapon in politics against your enemies unless you are willing to have it used against you... vigorously. The bitter, rancorous feud between the Ds and the Rs is one giant fuster-cluck already... The two parties don't care about the good of the nation, but only about their own power.... Prosecute a sitting President, and it will become one giant fuster-cluck squared.... Best just to stick to the Constutition's remedy in this case... Impeachment by the US House, trial in the US Senate... We have done impeachment of the President 2 times (Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton), but we have YET to have a conviction and removal from office by the Senate... We almost had a 3rd case of it, but Nixon had the good sense to resign beforehand. https://youtu.be/iY57ErBkFFE #Texit Don't blame me, I voted for Johnson(L) in 2016. Truth is dangerous... especially when it challenges those in power. |

Have patience. Good enough. It is strange to fire him just before he retires however. That does not sound like much of an administrative proceeding, but rather an attempt to intimidate any public servant who does not agree with Donald. Is such a thing possible? |

Of course impeachment is the appropriate remedy for a sitting president, according to the usual Constitutional interpretation. But when I heard of Donald's $20 M lawsuit, I assumed that he was trying to accelerate the process in order to avoid dealing with North Korea. We may find out how Mike Pence handles it, whether we want to or not. |

Gives congress a window of time to impeach and hold a trial if the idiot can't see the writing on the wall and resign. |

Statement by Andrew McCabe: edit] Andrew McCabe was just offered a job by a congressman so he can get his full retirement. And it just might work. edi2] Just came to me, how would 45 react if Comey and McCabe were to be elected in the mid terms and become members of one of the inquires. |

The only mistake Cohen made was not noting in the check memo "For Services Rendered"................ "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |
