While the press doesn’t like writing about it, nor do I need them to, I donate my yearly Presidential salary of $400,000.00 to different agencies throughout the year, this to Homeland Security. If I didn’t do it there would be hell to pay from the FAKE NEWS MEDIA!
 
Deutsche Bank employees told to treat Trump like Voldemort after election.

It was a moment of celebration — and a moment of worry for Ms. Vrablic’s employer.

Mr. Trump and Deutsche Bank were deeply entwined, their symbiotic bond born of necessity and ambition on both sides: a real estate mogul made toxic by polarizing rhetoric and a pattern of defaults, and a bank with intractable financial problems and a history of misconduct.

…

In the weeks before Ms. Vrablic attended his swearing-in, the bank commissioned reports to figure out how it had gotten in so deep with Mr. Trump. It issued an unusual edict to its Wall Street employees: Do not publicly utter the word “Trump.”

Any bets that he makes this "donation" a tax-dodge of some sort.

Not to mention the emoluments he's raking in from his DC hotel.

Thats not all hes done with regards to that hotel. He eliminated the possibility that the building across the street would become a luxury hotel that could compete with his. Conflicts of interests mean nothing to this turd.

Whoops. I didn’t see the poll question until after I wrote all this stuff.

So what this means is that there is a percentage of the population who thinks Trump colluded with Russia, but still thinks the Mueller investigation is a "witch hunt". Not sure how that's supposed to work... "He's guilty but its wrong to investigate it".

Ah, but you moved the goalpost. You cited evidence that a measureable percentage believes he concluded, but your conclusion used the phrase “he is guilty but.” It is possible that the people we are discussing do not believe that collusion is a crime. Therefore they would not consider him guilty of any wrongdoing.

On the other hand, your conclusion may be correct: they believe he is really guilty of a crime but he should not be investigated. Folks who hold that position might believe he is guilty but should not be investigated by Mueller. Or they might believe he is guilty but the crime is minor compared to all the good he has done for the country. Or, more simply, they may believe that he is guilty but because he is part of their political party he should not be investigated. That viewpoint may seem strange to you, but is it really hard to believe that in 2019 a few percent of the general population holds that viewpoint?

This is a skeptic board, I assert that such a belief would not even make the top ten list of the strangest beliefs of USAians.

The House is going to launch a full scale investigation and hearings on White Nationalism. Be interesting to see what vermin they find when they shine a light into the sewer.

I've said before, and I'll say now - when one is willing to push for white supremacism for power (or any other sort of bigotry, really), what's the difference between one and the nazis who marched around ranting white genocide nonsense in Charlottesville (ie. "Jews will not replace us")?

Nothing more than speech, I'd say.

Exactly so. And who is likely to be prez in 2020+ A democrat and the GOP will scream endlessly about deficits, socialist policies that created a recession/depression, etc. It's gonna be ugly.
 
Well there's very little the ******* in the GOP or Trump apologists/enablers in this forum can say about a future presidential candidate without having the Trump card flashed at them.
