  • Trump’s best defense:
    He did an idiotic and stupid thing harmful to US interests, ought to be censured, not impeached.

      Had Trump done none of that, there’d be no case for impeachment. Pelosi wasn’t gonna go ahead with it, but Trump had to be Trump and sabotage himself when he was almost in the clear.

      John Kelly basically said the same thing, warning Trump he’d be impeached if he didn’t get honest advisement. I’m more inclined to believe a man who knew Trump than a Trump bootlicker like you.
      The "insurance policy" was planned out before Trump even won the election.

        You are undoubtedly the conspiracy theorist’s conspiracy theorist. You ‘signature’ should include a warning that reading Mountain Man could seriously damage your mental health.

          It would make a great conspiracy theory except for one little problem: we have hard evidence to prove it.

          House Judiciary Committee Republicans on Tuesday released hundreds of pages of transcripts from last year's closed-door interview with ex-FBI attorney Lisa Page, revealing new details about the bureau's controversial internal discussions regarding an “insurance policy” against then-candidate Donald Trump.

          ...

          Among their texts was one concerning the so-called "insurance policy." During her interview with the Judiciary Committee in July 2018, Page was questioned at length about that text -- and essentially confirmed this referred to the Russia investigation while explaining that officials were proceeding with caution, concerned about the implications of the case while not wanting to go at "total breakneck speed" and risk burning sources as they presumed Trump wouldn't be elected anyway.

          Further, she confirmed investigators only had a "paucity" of evidence at the start.

          Sorry, I'm just not as good as you guys at coming up with loony theories that have no evidence behind them.

          Maybe I need to spend more time reading Wikipedia and Facebook...

            Your capacity for adopting conspiracy theories is legendary. BTW, I don't think you ever answered my question:

            Did the US land two men on the moon in July 1969.

            Interesting how you never answered that ...

            Maybe I need to spend more time reading Wikipedia and Facebook...
            Nah - you do quite well reading what you read already.
            My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

            If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

            This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

              I don't think it's accurate to call something a "theory" in this context when it is demonstrably true.

              So I'm curious, on what basis are you suggesting that the findings of the House Judiciary Committee and the testimony of Lisa Page are incorrect?

                Typical republican/trumpster argument. If you can't beat them, demean them.

                  I think it's fair to presume that all people in this forum are not nuts. While I often disagree with Mountain Man, I think he deserves be treated with the same kind of respect you wish to be treated with.

                    I wonder what oxmixmudd would say about a post like this?

                      Still trying, eh?
                      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                        Basic psychology is that repetition from multiple parties convinces, which is how all the people who listen to Fake News are still convinced that 'Trump is going down, this time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!' when any normal person has tuned this sort of nonsense out in disgust.

                          I am certainly not a Trump hater. In fact I find him especially amusing as I can just imagine how apoplectic the liberal left gets at whatever he is saying or doing. I have also written down a list of why I like him and many of his policies. (It is quite long lol).

                          It is therefore very difficult to concede that after watching quite a bit of the impeachment hearing on the BBC News last night, I think the crux unfortunately is this: If your country does X, for ME, then my country will do Y for you/your country. Ouch! I wish very much this was not so. It is the X for ME that is problematic. It would be perfectly in order if it was X for my COUNTRY.

                              I noticed that too. And Jim Jordan talks like a machine gun. Even Jim Jordan doesn’t understand Jim Jordan. Luckily, he can be safely ignored.
