    That is a very impressive unpacking of the playbook - and a very accurate description of the swivel-eyed Trump lovers we know so well.

    This bit near the end nails it and explains their sad and slippery contortions in the face of reality!

    The political theorist Hannah Arendt once wrote that the most successful totalitarian leaders of the 20th century instilled in their followers “a mixture of gullibility and cynicism.” When they were lied to, they chose to believe it. When a lie was debunked, they claimed they’d known all along—and would then “admire the leaders for their superior tactical cleverness.” Over time, Arendt wrote, the onslaught of propaganda conditioned people to “believe everything and nothing, think that everything was possible and that nothing was true.”

    Pity they can't undo the exposing of the Steele dossier hoax, the Russia collusion hoax, the obstruction of justice hoax, the Mueller investigation hoax, and the impeachment hoax. If only they could do that, then you may have a valid point, but as it stands now you and your mates are totally deluded!

    Surely you are referring to the 'Steele dossier hoax' hoax, the 'Russia collusion hoax' hoax, the 'obstruction of justice hoax' hoax, the 'Mueller investigation hoax' hoax and the 'impeachment hoax' hoax? You are really not keeping up, are you?

    Feel another wait and see moment coming and an avalanche of disappointment. Thankfully whatever anyone thinks the people of the USA will decide this very soon.

    Don't forget that Trump actually lost the popular vote last time by 2 million votes... It wouldn't surprise me if that happened again and we're still stuck with the orange c**t as US President.

    What's the popular vote got to do with it?

    Not going with this one yet, unfamiliar with the sauce.
    Kamala will be a little concerned with this one

    The little known CTH blog have exposed the leaking of a top secret FISA warrant by the Senate Intel committee and a subsequent lack of justice, which has resulted in the former DC US Attorney's Treasury post nomination being withdrawn in response. Well done Cyril!

    Fair play he did a right number on Jessie, 5D chess,
    For every item that carries the darkness of humanity there's one that holds the light.

    Bloody Hell, Jessie is a wrong un. Who would have thought it. Was it only three years ago after serving loyally as part of the Trump Transition team that she was personally interviewed and hand-picked to be the US Attorney for the District of Columbia.

    Now of the 51 US Attorney's appointed by the Trump Administration only two were personally interviewed, Jessie for DC and another for New York. Spookily these are the two places where Trump has significant political and business interests so it would be important to get the right person in place.

    In the extremely unlikely event that the CTH join the dots party you have been jacking off to is correct I bet the person who hand-picked her after a personal interview is looking an absolute plonker tonight.

    On the other hand it could be that Jessie took this "rule of law" stuff a bit to seriously for Trump/Barr's liking and was a great disappointment to them. Nominate her for higher office, backfill with another Barr poodle more likely to do their bidding and let Jessie hang out to dry.

    If it deflects from the facts that the DoJ recommended stiff sentence for Trump's best mate, Trump cried on twitter about it, Barr leapt, changed the recommendation in a way that 4 prosecutors resigned then so much the better.

    Still, rule of law way to go buddy.
