I'm still calling it- he gets impeached 4-6 months into his first year as president. If not- republicans are even more crooked than I originally thought.

Assuming he does get impeached (probably won't) and as a result gets kicked out of office his replacement will be Mike Pence. Do you really want that? I probably would but do you?


More lizards and snakes I see. :D

Gold plated and named after himself. What a sight. He might be the closest thing we've had to wannabe royalty since President Washington.

I think there's plenty of wealthy folk in the "colonies" who aspire to demonstrate their pedigree...personally I don't think Trump cares much for being "royalty" so much as desiring to show off his big shiny phallic symbol, his narcissism makes him too ostentatious to be concerned about being refined or high class...

And in case anyone hasn't noticed there are hundreds of "gold" buildings around the world...how come I haven't heard people disparaging the owners/builders of these buildings??? Why is because of all the phoniness being thrown about by upset ignorant selfish cry babies.

I remember when the "gold" glass was first used for shading and heat control and Trump didn't have anything to do with it...it was done by scientists....why don't you look them up and disparage their "phallic symbol?" :D

Oh come on now, a gold plated building in a place like Las Vegas is just simply out of place and unheard of lol. And who would have their name placed on their product? I mean except for Ford and Edison and both Hewlet and Packard or Disney or Hershey.........

Actually, there isn't any evidence. We just have some unknown people in the CIA saying it's true and some corrupted paper spewing it out. People swallowing this show they haven't learned a thing from the outrageous lies coming from the 'experts' from both Gulf wars, well from all wars actually. When there was actual clear evidence being leaked that Clinton was being bought by Saudi Arabia and Qatar, the corrupted media completely ignored it, as did those who just want to believe what they are told.


So let me get this straight, you criticize the media ignoring evidence leaked about clinton, yet you'd prefer they stay quiet about any findings related to corruption in the republican party? I don't fully understand this logic.

It's called a double standard.

Personally I'm suspicious of leaked info from anonymous sources, no matter who it's about. As far as the Clinton email scandal went, even though it turned out to be basically bogus, the FBI itself made declarations to the public, rather than NBC having ties to an anonymous source within the FBI.

The fact that this just played out for the public to make a comparison, just makes the way that the CIA investigation and findings have been disclosed, appear questionable and even appear suspicious. It really looks more like something done to generate headlines. I consider both the Clinton email scandal and the Russian email hacking scandal to both be without merit and both seemed perfectly timed to disrupt or at least attempt to disrupt the election process. It seems to me the FBI and CIA have done far more to disrupt our voting system than so called Russian hackers.

I say so called hackers, because the most basic of all phishing scams, hardly qualifies as hacking. It's the sort of thing performed by little rinky-dink theft rings in third world countries, rather than a sophisticated covert hacking operation performed by the government of the second most powerful nation on Earth. I mean if that's the best Russia can do, then we have absolutely nothing to fear from them.

I'm not expecting to hear anything from the Obama probe into this matter. I'm expecting it to get swept under the rug in hoping it will be forgotten about.

Russia is now allying with the Freedom Party (founded by ex-nazis, and honestly the whole group looks very racist in my view at least). Sickening!

Then there's the GOP and Trump backed "First Amendment Defense Act" that might get passed. It's just a way for people to discriminate! Very sickening!

Also according to Newt Gingrich: Trump doesn't want to 'drain the swamp' anymore. So yet another Trump lie exposed. But its no secret- look at who Trump has picked for his cabinet! Rich elite people/ex-lobbyists and other scum that wont help many in America except for the super rich and their families/friends.

Russia did a hack and shouldn't be an ally to USA period. There is NO good proof that Putin wants to act nicely unless it means more money for him and his friends (Trump, etc).

It's very unfortunate and frustrating that people were tricked and conned by Trump with his fake promises and all of his lies. I'm really hoping an impeachment comes. So many people will be suffering if Trump is in office for even a few months I bet! :x

I think Trump was more interested in the campaign and it's victory than he is in actually running the country. He only gets the daily intelligence briefings sporadically and even then they are filtered through Flynn.

More sensationalism - the use of exciting or shocking stories or language at the expense of accuracy, in order to provoke public interest or excitement.
