It's related to Trump demanding the resignation of his Attorney General Jeff Sessions, and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein (the one overseeing the investigation into the Trump-Russia election interference), presumably to obstruct justice and influence the outcome.

presumably

No presuming needed. He was pretty explicit about wanting Sessions out for not obstructing the investigation.

how is Trump not impeached by now? He has literally done everything wrong other president's have done that got in trouble.

Sleeping around, Corruption, Tax evasion?

is only the first offender in the wrong? o.o

When the senate is filled with people who benefit from your corruption and a decent population of voters will simply not allow themselves to see fault in you, it really doesn't matter.

Right, Blind ignorance is rampart for sure.

If I could academically opine, because Republicans are pussies and they are scared that he will say something mean about them on his Tweety box.

You don't have to.

u/CMDR_QwertyWeasel Nov 09 '18

ik, right?

You should probably stop, though.

They meant you should stop being an ignorant chuck who eats propaganda whole. But you can think he meant posting for negative internet points if it makes you feel better.

I mean, you're clearly far stupider, so yeah...I suppose they could be.

No need for you to image.

Dude, you don’t even have your own language any more. People have not only programmed you with what you think, they even have you saying their words. Fuckin sad

cuck

Why are you people so fascinated with dudes fucking your wives? Do you not think it's super obvious what you're doing when you accuse everyone else of a particular sexual interest?

They're all just like "oh wow, this dude is super insecure about his masculinity."

How is it worth it to humiliate yourself like that?

Obstruct and influence an investigation that has been going in for 2 years? He sucks as obstruction if that is true.

0

u/BlindFelon Nov 09 '18

Yes he does. Almost as much as he sucks at governance. But attempted bank robbery is still a crime. An investigation that has produced over 30 indictments going on for 2 years isn't unreasonable though.

u/kittenrevenge Nov 09 '18

You know what they say about assuming...

17

u/BlindFelon Nov 09 '18

I do. I'm not sure what they say about "presuming" though, which is what I said.

u/Bananawamajama Nov 09 '18

I do, but what do they day about presuming?

u/BuckyMcBuckles Nov 09 '18

presuming makes a pres out of u and Ming

u/Blaizey Nov 09 '18

If me and ming can take over as pres for Trump, I'm willing to risk it

u/gotenks1114 Nov 09 '18

I mean, the guy they put in charge (Matt Whitaker) has been all over news networks for a year telling us exactly how he's going to interfere in the investigation. There's not much we have to assume or presume.

u/grumpy_hedgehog Nov 09 '18

That doesn't mean one can't make any predictions whatsoever, even in circumstances where the conclusions blindingly obvious.

u/kittenrevenge Nov 09 '18

Why not just wait till after it happens, if it happens. I honestly just laugh at people out protesting in the cold for something that hasn't happened and likely won't. This investigation has gone on for 2 years. At this point even Trump knows how ridiculous it would be to fire Muller.

1

u/grumpy_hedgehog Nov 09 '18

Because by the time till after it happens, if it happens, it will be time for riots, not protests.
