When for an explanation, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders simply noted that “President Trump likes Chairman Kim, and he doesn’t think these sanctions will be necessary.”
So never really cared for John McCain, but likes Chairman Kim.
Trump hasn't tweeted in 19 hours! Has he ever gone that long while in office? I wonder if that is good or bad...

I've seen a few serious commentators point out that Jerome Corsi leaked a draft plea indictment that had all sorts of damning information about him in it. He doesn't get indicted? That's wild. But the one I'm focused on is the Congressman who solicited, received, and used hacked emails from a Russian cutout. If that flies without legal consequence, that sets about as bad of a precedent as possible. My advice to any person in an election is find cutouts to commit election crimes on your behalf. Sounds like it is fine.
And I think that unless Pence is also somehow deposed after Trump's impeachment, instead of becoming the new President, we might be even worse off in some ways with Pence as president than with Trump as president.
Which basically proves that it's not really about anything Trump personally did that makes you pine away for his impeachment but rather your desire to overturn the results of a democratic election that you happen to not like. You have no ethics other than your agenda.
And when the confederates saw Jackson standing fearless as a stone wall the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Oh look, human garbage is back at it again, pretending to have an ounce of decency and integrity and now preaching about ethics when Trump, his lord and savior, is by far the most unethical person ever to hold office. The man is going to jail after he leaves office and you are already making your "witch hunt" protesting materials.
Trump has committed a number of offenses he could be impeached for and they have been laid out in broad daylight for yo but you don't care. All you care about is hatring brown people and praising the guy who so white that he's orange. If the Democrats wanted to impeach him they would have done it already. But they're betting it will be better just to let the American people vote him out of office. Only 19 months to go.
My guess is that the report won't justify any walls closing in like the media hyped for two years. Clinton is out of the picture finally so the Russia made me lose excuse is no longer needed. It's time to move on and nominate someone who can beat Trump. He is so beatable and I hope the Democratic Party allows an actual populist to be nomoinated. The wall street donors won't like that and the super delegates will probably be invoked on the second ballot at the future convention. So, I won't hold my breath.

No crap.

He may be the most beatable President that has ever held the office - unfortunately, it is my opinion that the opposing party has moved so freaking far to the left that Trump's opposition in 2020 has very little chance of winning the election.
Unless, the moderate liberal voice - which has gone AWOL - takes back their party.
Wasn't Clinton a supposed moderate? She lost to Trump. I think the thinking that only a moderate can beat Trump is outdated. The younger voters are more left leaning and want something like the green new deal and love Ocasio Cortez. People want Medicare for all and less war. There might be some problems with these approaches for sure. But this is where the electorate seems to be - further left. Someone like Sanders may be who can beat Trump.

Hrm. For a guy who's averaged 10 or so tweets a day it's kind of odd he's been radio silent going on 23 hours now. Last time he was this quiet was when Comey was testifying.

The report definitely needs to be made public and let everyone debate it.
