    But more importantly, what we don't have is evidence that Trump fired people because they refused to break the law, or told them he would pardon them if they got in trouble, like ox has falsely claimed.
    I have only claimed what has been reported in the news. Your choice not to believe those sources does not mean they do not exist or that the claims have not been made by people other than myself.

      Your dispute is not with me but with the facts.
      Since when does 'no evidence of collusion' translate to 'did nothing shady'. No wonder you cant follow my arguments.

        Right.

        Here are Mueller's exact words: "[T]he investigation did not establish that members of the Trump Campaign conspired or coordinated with the Russian government in its election interference activities."

        That statement covers both legal activities ("coordinated") and illegal ("conspired"). In other words, there is no evidence that the Trump campaign did anything shady.

        Unless you think Mueller got that one wrong...

          I dont think mueller got anything wrong there, but you apparently have a problem comprehending the english language and/or logic.

          Did nothing shady is NOT a consequence of the statement you quote. In fact that statement alone doesn't actually claim there was no activity that appeared to be related to collusion. It just means that conclusion could not be established. i e. The implications and correlations associated with the evidence where not sufficiently strong to warrent claiming such activity had been established.

          There is a lot of ground between shady activity and established collusion or conspiracy.

            I think your obsession with Trump is unhealthy, and I'm not going to feed it anymore.

I don't understand why it would be, given that under the reign of Dear Leader Obama, immigrants were notoriously relocated surreptitiously to various places throughout the country, said places given no warning or preparation.

                    Gee, and it's just too bad that Dirty Cop Mueller couldn't find evidence of these "shady activities" despite having virtually unlimited resources and the political will to do so.

                      And those were to places that usually didn't want them whereas these sanctuary cities welcome these hordes of illegal immigrants so there shouldn't be any complaints.

                        I'm not sure why sanctuary city liberals are so against it anyway since they claim that people who break our laws and enter our country illegally are good, honest folks who just want to make better lives for themselves.

                          Talk about going off the rails. You do realize that the last rational response to anything ive said was 2 or 3 posts ago - right? Ive been trying to see if you could manage to reign it in, but it looks to be a lost cause at this point.

                            Obviously nielson, to the point of sabotaging her position, thought it a very bad idea. Given she was generally a hard liner on immigration policy and very much a supporter of the trump approach overall, i would say that probably meams it was a very, VERY bad idea.

                              There are those that fear that once safely ensconced in a sanctuary city they would be here to stay. Others think that this would be about the only thing that can get these cities to repeal their laws. Given the negative and hostile reaction from various advocates of sanctuary policies to such a move it is not unreasonable supposition.
