Its official, Trump now under investigation.

[Mountain Man]

Then why did you also take his word for it? Never got that. The fact that WP made it up according to him would not rule out that there actually was an investigation. Trump was wrong like the anonymous sources if he is not under investigation. Very simple.

Are these rhetorical gymnastics of yours really easier than simply conceding that you were wrong? Look, it's okay to admit that the liberal media got this one wrong - again - and that maybe, just maybe, Trump really is innocent.

So...when JimL said, "Its official, Trump now under investigation," what he really meant was: "It's unofficial, Trump now under investigation?"

Trump was wrong. And both you and I took his word for it. That simple. We are in the same boat in this one. Only you and Spicer would claim something else.

[Charles]

so he is not under investigation. fini.

That appears to be the case, but who knows who to trust when we cannot even take the presidents words for it when he says he is under investigation? Not easy.

you are reading too much into his tweets. He is a reactionary. He just reacted to the news he was under investigation. He probably thought "they don't tell me anything" - and just reacted to the story. he needs to check with his people before tweeting. Which is probably why he has gone quiet. His people probably convinced him to stop making these reactionary tweets and think first.

Give it up, Chuck, you lost this round.

One can only hope.

As long as I loose in the company of the Mountain Man himself I can live with that.

[JimL]

I don't know he is not guilty. I do know that there is NO EVIDENCE that says he is guilty. Without any evidence he is not guilty. Kinda the way it works.

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were in on the investigation. Besides that, there is no proof, yet, but yes, there is evidence, you're just to biasedly blind to see it.

[JimL]

So now liberals want guilt and innocence to be based on opinion instead of evidence.

"I don't care about the facts, it's my opinion that he's guilty!"

Our opinions are based on the evidence MM. What you want to see is proof, otherwise you don't want to hear it.

Nope, what I meant is that he is under investigation.

What evidence? Insinuations, wishes, and anonymous sources which keep being proven wrong won't cut it. We'd love to see some proof. You'd love to show us some proof. You have nada, zip, zilch, zero, nothing - or it would be out there, instantaneously, all over the place.

If there's dirt on Trump, then its not the stuff journalists think they've found. I said from the beginning that these rumors started by the Democrats are just distractions from the fact that the DNC picked the worst possible candidate, and that she simple lost straight up to Trump. There's no way about it. Presenting a picture of a Trump winning via corruption, rather than simple because he managed to use the media to his own advantage, by being outragious and anti-PC which forced them to write about him.... because he generated clicks. He got free publicity, and talked from his guts and connected with the lower and middle class.

The DNC wants to keep the status quo, they don't want to do any deep, hard, soul searching. They don't want to cut their ties to corporate backers, or do some house cleaning, or anything like that. They want everything to return to normal when Trump eventually is ousted, or leaves.

I think he'll sit out his term. He might not go for a second, though he might.

One thing I hope though, is that things don't return to normal and I hope to high heaven that Hillary doesn't try to run again.

Ah, the Congress is already investigating Trump in their questioning of Dan Coates, Admiral Rogers, Jeff Sessions and Rod Rosenstein not to mention Comey himself. And when it is said that the Trump campaign is under investigation, well, the campaign encompasses Trump himself. The whole question of whether or not Trump is under investigation is silly. Of course he is.

[Tassman]

As I've observed before, to some people, Trump is a lying liar - except when he says something they want to be true, in which case he has to be taken strictly literally as speaking the gospel truth.
