You REALLY refuse to actually read the thread, don't you?

I mean, you keep asking questions that have already been asked and answered.

Now you are posting an item we have been discussing for 1 hour and 55 minutes as if it were new.

Not to mention the news is now reporting no resignation, not getting fired after all. :p

Yeah, it's just hard to tell those apart.

That implies that it's not reflexive.

Right. But as I understand it, it isn't technically a lie as a lie is when you know something is false. Not just filling the air with bs. I don't see it that way however.
 
Well if someone was clever, this might have been a trial balloon to see what the reactions would be to a possible Rosenstein firing/resignation.
 
Weeee.

At the beginning of one of the most consequential weeks of Donald Trump’s presidency, an enormous smoke bomb was detonated in the news cycle when Axios, deeply wired in Trump’s West Wing, reported that Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein had “offered to resign.” Quickly, a head-spinning array of conflicting accounts were put forth: Had he been fired? Was he heading to the White House to be fired—or was he going to a regularly scheduled meeting? Finally, Sarah Huckabee Sanders brought a measure of clarity by tweeting that, whatever was going to happen to Rosenstein would happen on Thursday, when the president returned from New York.

For all the morning’s madness, there may have been an underlying logic. Over the weekend, as Brett Kavanaugh’s prospects appeared increasingly imperiled, Trump faced two tactical options, both of them fraught. One was to cut Kavanaugh loose. But he was also looking for ways to dramatically shift the news cycle away from his embattled Supreme Court nominee. According to a source briefed on Trump’s thinking, Trump decided that firing Rosenstein would knock Kavanaugh out of the news, potentially saving his nomination and Republicans’ chances for keeping the Senate. “The strategy was to try and do something really big,” the source said. The leak about Rosenstein’s resignation could have been the result, and it certainly had the desired effect of driving Kavanaugh out of the news for a few hours.

This has been a test of the constitutional crisis broadcast system.

Regardless, Trump has wanted to fire Rosenstein from the moment he read the New York Times article that reported Rosenstein had discussed secretly tape-recording Trump and rallying Cabinet secretaries to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove him from office. (Rosenstein has denied the account.) Some outside advisers, including Sean Hannity, have cautioned that the Times story was a trap to get Trump to fire Rosenstein and trigger a Saturday Night Massacre-like crisis that, however temporarily successful, would leave Democrats holding almost all the cards.

So, since you're going to intentionally do something like that, why shouldn't we all just put you on ignore?
 
I'm just patiently waiting until Trump is arrested and imprisoned for his crimes against America and the world. I fully realize that this is the long game, and yet I hope that the moment will come. It won't happen today or tomorrow, but I think that eventually it will come.
 
I want to hear from Deripaska. He is directly connected to a ridiculous amount of the 'cast of characters' in this. Manafort, McCain, Steele, Waldman, Simpson(FusionGPS), Assange, Veselnitskaya, Mueller. Yes, I said DIRECTLY. And in turn, these characters are connected to each other. These are really just the ones with actual evidence of communicating or having a record of direct business dealings. The circle of people in this, connected on Trump and Clinton sides (and many times both Republican and Democrat at the same time) is amazingly small when you think about the world at large!!

So far, the FBI has said no deal to his offer of testimony to congress. Deripaska has been fighting for a visa and against sanctions for a while. (he isreportedly a very very baaaaad dude) It really just got worse for him under Trump. He did write an Op-Ed about what he thought was going on. I cant link with this device (can barely type anything...so search it please. Its my daughter restricted tablet. lol))

It's obviously a spin favorable to him(the Op-Ed), but perhaps has some truths only he would know.. I think there are things that will come out in the next 6 months that change this good vs evil narrative we see today in msm. It's a LOT of people involved and not necessarily coordinating. In fact, I'd be very surprised if they could have managed that. They cannot even hide their emails at the highest level of the FBI.

Just take in for a moment that it's so well-known now that it passes without comment that a Fox News host is considered an "outside adviser" to the president of the US.

The press is always some adivsor.

This one, however, is closer than most - by his ownn admission..

Explain how that affects the decisions of the president.

I mean, if he wants conservative views, he will lean to those pundits. You'll have to say why the ones on TV are idiots vs the 'real' conservatives he SHOULD be talking to in the gov't or private sector.
