The Donald Trump thread

Re: The Donald Trump thread

It's all down to process now, the majority of which have already been set in motion.

As in Mueller’s investigation? The one which the National Security adviser has pleaded guilty to lying to tne FBI? That’s the one I see and that’s certainly in motion.

Why was Flynn fired by the Trump administration?

[lardy]

Re: The Donald Trump thread

Why was Flynn fired by the Trump administration?

Flynn resigned because he misled the VP and Trump said "I don’t think he did anything wrong. If anything, he did something right… He was just doing his job. The thing is, he didn’t tell our Vice President properly and then he said he didn’t remember"

Although the day after Sean Spicer said that actually Trump had asked for his letter of resignation.

Now Trump is saying he was fired for lying to the VP AND to the FBI. How did he know at the time that Flynn had lied to the FBI? Trump's defence at the time was that he knew nothing about any contact between his team and the Russians.

Seems to be like father like sons when it comes to self-incriminating tweeting.

Donald Trump’s latest tweet:

Now is this the product of a man in control ??

Many people in our Country are asking what the “Justice” Department is going to do about the fact that totally Crooked Hillary, AFTER receiving a subpoena from the United States Congress, deleted and “acid washed” 33,000 Emails? No justice!

Trump: 'So General Flynn lies to the FBI and his life is destroyed' but 'nothing happens' to Hillary Clinton

President Trump reignited the “Crooked Hillary” attacks in a series of tweets calling attention to what he views as a double standard between how Hillary Clinton's email scandal was handled versus the controversy surrounding former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who pleaded guilty in federal court Friday to lying to the FBI.

"So General Flynn lies to the FBI and his life is destroyed, while Crooked Hillary Clinton, on that now famous FBI holiday 'interrogation' with no swearing in and no recording, lies many times...and nothing happens to her? Rigged system, or just a double standard?”, Trump tweeted.

A few minutes later the president followed up by taking a swipe at the Justice Department.

“Many people in our Country are asking what the ‘Justice’ Department is going to do about the fact that totally Crooked Hillary, AFTER receiving a subpoena from the United States Congress, deleted and ‘acid washed’ 33,000 Emails? No justice!”, he said.

Yep, I saw them too and again it appears to be a men in desperate need of a diversion.

In response to your earlier question it’s appears was Flynn was fired.

My point about things in motion is that if we look at the word motion it means things going forward.

If Flynn was the end of the matter then it’s a victory for Trump. However as the investigation is still ongoing and Flynn had agreed to co-operate then this case is in motion.

I
Unless you know something else ?

It's all speculation and intrigue at the moment, but some have questioned the outcome of him admitting guilt for what is regarded as a low level offence. Does this give him immunity to talk about other things that may be classified? General Flynn knows a hell of a lot of secrets regarding his work for both Trump and Obama. Where this is all going is anybody's guess

He says a lot of things Wales Bales.

This is another one of his diversionary bollock fests.

You can’t just Lock up people without evidence no matter how many petulantl tweets you send.

Yeah, but the FBI are starting to look as though they are the "Winnie Mandela" arm of the Democratic Party

Don is way too smart to make the mistakes of mortals.
I know its the 'Fake News Guardian', but today we apparently hear that it apparently wasn't Don who wrote that Tweet with the BIG mistake in it, apparently somebody else wrote it for Donny (in which case, if true - who actually wrote all of Donald's other tweets ?)

Presumably, this absolutely ridiculous 'admission' might have come about because if Don had written that tweet, it indicates Obstruction of Justice occurred.

If this is true, then Don's hung himself by 'his own' Tweets. Now that would be an irony.

Re: The Donald Trump thread

Bit of a trend occurring?!

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...-a8090021.html


TBH I guess it could have been a wind up - easy guy to impersonate, but one would think that he may have denied more strongly it at the time?!

Next he will be saying that he didn't say to Comey what Comey said he said to him .. Oh
