General Politics Discussion (III) [ARCHIVED] • Page 495

Aw, I was getting worried that we wouldn't have another big news story today. Glad to see I was wrong.

 

Two giant stories land 20 minutes after AF1 takes off. God damn.

 

We got two today! This and the "nut job" quote.

This has to be Kushner or Bannon, right?

 

What if it was Spicey

 

EVERYTHING IS BAD

 

"Sean Spicer, the White House press secretary, did not dispute the account."

Maybe he's ready to go ...

 

Trump got 2 scoops.

Just like he likes.

 

Perfect.

 

Monday thru Thursday: You'll never believe all of the news I have for you
Friday: HMB

 

Wait I can't see twitter what just happened

 

damn

 

Russia probe looking at current WH official: report

Trump told Russians firing 'nut job' Comey eased pressure on him: report

 

My guess.

Didn't disclose Russia stuff + wanted Comey gone + sketchy mo fo.

 

I almost respect and hate this pun with equal intensity.

 

Maybe the real lesson ... is the friends we make along the way.

 

Wonder if there's a tape of this meeting ... from either side.

 

I love that it may be his beloved Jared that is being looked at. My guess is, this also has something to do with why the whole crew is went along with Trump. They think someone inside and close might be snitching. Ha.

 

Also, this was brought up by Doug Henwood: Is someone within the investigation leaking this stuff? Is it okay to leak when there's an ongoing investigation?

 

They're gonna lean into the "yeah, we did it 'cause of the Russia investigation," eh? Bold. Bold move.

 

I have a migraine:

 

"Mr. Comey's grandstanding got in the way of the President's grandstanding. There is only one grandstander-in-chief."

 

Starting to think this Russia thing may have legs, and meeting with them basically secretly in the White House at Putin's request was ... maybe not a good idea?
