call it whatever you’d like but it is most definitely Trump and his people working with Russians against the USA; as for me, I call it treason!

I'm not sure what more Mueller would need, although a second person to corroborate the testimony would be pretty sweet.

May the last presidential act that this president makes in his duty as 45, be the lighting of the Christmas tree.

The no-shows at the lighting was so bad that it inspires tee-shirts printed with the words, "Free the White House Christmas Tree!"

Trump's future: Orange on orange.

Followed by the cuts to social safety nets necessary as a result of the tax cuts. Pence, if he survives, gets to continue appointing corporatist judges. Well played GOP. You will get to destroy the country and its people as planned.

Trump proves a useful idiot for both Russia and the GOP.

Now that the cat is out of the bag and Trump's ensnared in Mueller's vice grip, it seems that a MAJOR distraction may be in the offing.

Trump never plays by the rules. He'd bring the world down around him before succumbing to justice.
