The Rout Is On, by Robert Gore
Uranium One and Fusion GPS are gold mines for Trump. There is no telling what other strands will unravel, who will turn state’s evidence and start squealing, and where all this will ultimately lead. It appears those who protected the Clintons for so long are now throwing them to the wolves. Anger runs deep in Democratic circles against Hillary Clinton. She screwed Bernie Sanders in the primary, lost the election she was supposed to win, and then hitched the party’s—and establishment Washington and its media lapdogs’—wagon to the star-crossed Trump-Russian collusion concoction.
It’s telling that the Uranium One scoops came from http://TheHill.com and the Fusion scoop came from The Washington Post, both reliable Democratic mouthpieces. There may be more than anger at work. The Clintons are perhaps being offered up as propitiatory sacrifices in the hope that Trump will be satisfied with their convictions and not proceed further. That hope is apt to be dashed. Further investigations will give Trump that much more sub rosa political leverage.

Thanks for following the threads and publishing your conclusions.
I expect you are correct about Trump's motives. I don't expect we, the people, will regain any liberty regardless of Trump's success against the leftist Republicrats.
It would be gratifying to see the Washington Post report a Jonestown style mass suicide by Democrats in order to preserve what little dignity they feel they have left.
All this news and the mainstream media is as quiet as an itty-bitty little church mouse.
To go after Obama? That ain't all that's gonna happen.
The explosion of pulled race cards flying in the air will resemble a ticker-tape parade.
And parades there shall be!
"Useful idiot" students will follow will follow Black Lives Matter up and down many streets, all chanting "Racists! Racists!"
Traffic shall again be blocked while Antifa wrecks property and beats up suspected Trump voters.
Throughout all this mayhem a broadly grinning Congresswoman Mad Maxine will be a-braying her usual crap while a-swaying her stupid oversized cowboy hat.
And here comes Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and a whole host of those race hustlers.
To go after Obama?
Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war!
To go after Obama?

As a casual reader of the news, I've always suspected all allegations of the Trump campaign working with the Russian and President Trump trying to suppress the investigation were false. President Trump acted guilty, but I think that's just because he cares more about attention than anything else. I similarly suspect all claims about the Clinton Foundation being involved in corruption are false. I do wonder about the Clinton's built so much personal wealth, unrelated to the Foundation.
I find the whole situation ghastly. We have a clownish president elected by a minority, many of them the "deplorable" individuals Clinton correctly identified. They're not even pretending to debate gov't issues. President Trump's critics and supporters both hope that someone failed to document a meeting or foreign payments properly, and if so: Score!! a TOUCHDOWN for one politician or another. I guess that's great for them and their cronies. But it's ghastly for everyone else.
Suppose I'm wrong and investigators find clear proof someone working with President Trump worked with someone tied to the Russian gov't and then tried to use their position to get away with it. Then suddenly the world can be open about President Trump's antics being disgusting. Senator Flake and Senator Corker can brag that they stated the truth before it was cool. That scenario doesn't fix the fact that someone like Trump was able to become president and was defeated on a technicality rather than being Trump-like. It doesn't make people suddenly start talking about what the role of gov't should be. Unless people finally get sick of the clown show, we end up with more clowns running, not talking about issues, trying to stoke the fears and envy of the ignorant, and looking for little technicalities on which to claim their opponents should be in jail.
"We have a clownish president...", you're welcome to your opinion, but I disagree. He doesn't genuflect to the fluid "rules" of the left stream media as to what is "presidential" and I say too bad for them!
" ...elected by a minority...", true, but by a very slim margin. Besides, that is only relevant in a pure democracy, which we are not. We are a Constitutional Republic with an electoral college for a reason. If you don't like it, petition to change the Constitution.
" ...many of them the "deplorable" individuals Clinton correctly identified." Wrong. Clinton and her supporters would blanket identify anyone who did not vote and support her as a "deplorable" whether they were identified or not. Define deplorable. I would say, for example, they are the people that riot, loot, destroy, and burn for as little a reason as disagreeing with the opinion of a scheduled campus speaker in order to shut down freedom of speech. You won't find many of those in the Trump camp.
Reason and truth are their enemy because it exposes the emotional cognitive dissonance they reside in.
In the field of psychology, cognitive dissonance is the mental discomfort (psychological stress) experienced by a person who simultaneously holds two or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values.
He has a shield that blocks evidence presented to him and information that exposes the true character of the FREAKS he purports to support.
[LOL]Is likening President Trump to a carnival clown too crass for such a dignified forum? I certainly apologize for the remark to anyone involved in clowning or carnivals.
And, I do think Trumps is some sort of media mastermind. When I seen how wrapped up the media, SNL and late-night entertainment is in him (to the point of being unwatchable) it's clear he's on to something.
I think there were shady deals, but I think the dead bodies stuff is bizarre conspiracy theories. I've never even heard bizarre claims that she abused women.
"It was simply too much for her to get elected. "
It was an odd situation with an extreme "establishment" candidate and an extreme carnival huckster. I'm surprised she only got three million votes more than Trump. I don't think she would have gotten more votes than less offensive opponent running as a Republican. It should have been the perfect storm for libertarians. I'm really disappointed Johnson didn't memorize a list of answers to fall back upon when he didn't know much about something or got angry. I could see he tried to, but they nailed him with the few times he was in a weird, tired, or angry mood and went off script.
"Trumps is some sort of media mastermind."
Oh absolutely. I think he's a total marketing natural. I meant I reject the machinations suggested in the OP. My point is he is not as stupid as his public persona, but he's not playing political chess. He is simply a master at getting attention.
Donald Trump understood these things, though I should add he didn’t cause them. His victory was more effect than cause of our present discontents. The multiplying failures and arrogance of our governing class are what created the conditions for his victory.
Immigration is probably the best example of this. President Trump deviated from Republican orthodoxy on several issues, but immigration was the defining issue in which he broke from the bipartisan conventional wisdom. For years, all Democrats and many Republicans have agreed on the outline of what’s commonly called “comprehensive immigration reform,” which is Washington code for amnesty, mass immigration, and open borders in perpetuity." Sen Tom Cotton
I think many people long for the post WWII period of low income inequality, and they'll vote for the craziest person running, hoping she/he can bring it back. They'll vote for someone weirder than Bernies Sanders next time, and maybe the electoral math will get him elected without a plurality of the votes. This is not a good situation.
Regarding immigration, I'm probably right in the middle of the conventional wisdom, except I don't condone looking the other way. I'm glad President Trump is forcing the issue some, so we have to decide on a policy and follow it. I think amnesty, immigration, and open borders are key to prosperity. We send plans for things, video calls, and all kinds of value across the borders for free. We can move items and people across because of vestige from a time when value was in manufactured or grown items. The borders are relic that will go away. Provincial people won't like it, but the current nationalism is a blip in history.
Keep in mind that the dead bodies and harmed women were done by a two-person team... I remember back when I was a kid and my dad was working for a company based in Little Rock. Even way back then it was made very clear in that cow town that the Clintons were not to be messed with. That's all I'm going to divulge about that...
Hillary put a full attack on all the women , Bill her enabled serial predator molested . She has close ties to Weinstein the predator. See photohttps://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http%3A%...
"Weinstein the predator."
I don't condone making anyone feel uncomfortable, but I find the indignation people have toward him to be inconsistent with what he's accused of. I know he took advantage of people who wanted a job, but that's not on the same level of evil as using direct force. I used to think people who said this were sexist. Maybe I am sexist. On spectrum of bad things you can do, though, what he's accused of his bad, but I don't see it predatory.
Regarding Weinstein you are fine with value traded for value even when manipulation , groping , forcing sex acts are routine , the pressured behavior as an Implied job requirement. I suppose a well put together woman out in public is fair game on the spectrum of bad things let alone stalking or giving HIV.
I'm not a Clinton defender. I never met her and hardly care. I would rather she be president than Trump, but that's true of almost anyone, and not really a reflection on her. My impression of her is she would be excellent as maintaining the status quo, which isn't good, but at least you know what you're getting.
"Regarding Weinstein you are fine with value traded for value even when manipulation , groping , forcing sex acts are routine , the pressured behavior as an Implied job requirement."
"I suppose a well put together woman out in public is fair game"
[Sarcasm]Yes, I am fine with manipulating, groping, and forcing people.[/Sarcasm] WTF?
If someone wants to offer someone else his own money to do a sex act, with no misrepresentation or pretense of it being a business meeting, I'm absolutely fine with it.
Tricking someone by pretending it's a business meeting and not telling your shareholders how you're selecting vendors/employees to be paid with their money are obviously wrong. I just don't feel the moral indignation.
I think our culture is too sensitive about sexual harassment. If not seeing these people as predatory, I suppose I'm sexist.
