First Charges Filed in Mueller Investigation

Right. I’m not sure how we can construct a system that withstands a corrupt party, partisan judges, and a willingly ignorant electorate.
 
Only people with no morals or belief in America can support or vote for Trump.
 
Lol “Obama spied !” What a bunch of lying, unpatriotic cowards.

I voted republican back in college. Never again. They don’t actually stand for America or her ideals. Just power.

What we know for a fact:
1) the Russians meddled in our democratic voting process
2) the Russians actively meddled on behalf of their preferred candidate Trump
3) they approached the trump campaign who did not turn them away or report it
4) trump campaign accepted the help, even tacitly
5) republicans lay cover fire with misdirection and outright lies because they favor party over the right thing

Any republicans defending this or trying to change the story definitively do not give a shit about the constitution, democracy, or whatever their faux patriotic word of the day is.
 
Trump publicly solicited help from Russia and they promptly helped him.
 
Presented with the evidence that a foreign government interfered with an election in the United States, the GOP collectively shrugs their shoulders, does nothing to prevent future interference, and in fact, encourages future interference by defunding and dismantling US cyber security measures.
 
But, but...BENGHAZI! BILL CLINTON MET WITH LYNCH AT AIRPORT! HOLDER HELD IN CONTEMPT! BOSIDES, BOSIDES EVERYWHERE!

Honestly I think this is one of the primary reasons we don’t see conservatives posting as much anymore (Junebug, JH). It’s increasingly difficult, and has been for two years, to justify the republican admin’s behavior while identifying as a Republican. It’s embarrassing.
 
We had healthy debate between two parties on these boards and then trump came along and ruined honesty behind posters intentions. And now we have two openly voting Trumpers and that’s it. That says a lot
 
As we recently discovered, suppoting Trump in public may be embarrassing, but supporting him in private is quite enjoyable. What you tolerate, you encourage.

Agreed. Fewer and fewer conservatives may be publicly willing to admit that they support him, or to argue on his behalf on boards like these, but in private he still has legions of followers and fanatics who will gladly vote for him next year. They may only show up to post whenever he seems to win a big victory (like Kavanaugh getting to the SC last year), but they're definitely still around in large numbers. Hatred of liberals and wishing to humiliate them "trumps" all else, it would seem, including nearly all so-called conservative values and beliefs.

+ 1 Million. Couldn’t agree more.

Yep.

But this is why they still vote Republican.

Well said.

To add, this place isn’t a “liberal echo chamber.” That’s just what conservative posters say because the actions of the REPUBLICAN administration are impossible to defend, so they make excuses, because this admin is impossible to defend. That’s it. There’s no justifying what’s happening. Sure there can be minor forms of “both sides” but Trumps admin has taken things to an unmatchable level. Pubs here need to own it. It’d be nice to. Have that honesty. And those who don’t post anymore because they’re embarrassed need to own the fact that their party has been taken hostage by a phony and do something about it.
 
...before it’s too late?


Trump has taken over a party that evolved to be his for the taking. Years of utterly dishonest fear mongering have left the party with nowhere else to go. Trump, just walked through the door the Pubs unwittingly created for him.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why antifa is necessary. I don’t care how expensive a fascist’s suit is. There are some ideologies that are simply unacceptable in human society. A politics of cruelty and bigotry should not even be a question.
