Ivanka is a fine woman they wont go after her, Jared is disposable,, another great Giuliani quote

I’m not sure it’s rest advice but you can see the change in legal position. They will be super aggressive. The Ivanka talk is preemptive narrative that if ivanka gets questioned it’s an attack on a poor old man’s sweet innocent daughter. 

Beautiful rich white girls don’t get investigated!  

Rudy comes across nuts. It’s sort of a Nixon thing. “So what if I did it? I’m the president” seems to be the new message.

they will try to turn the public against the investigation like how the gop suffered in the wake of Starr’s investigation into Clinton (Rudy actually mentioned this today).

How long will Rudy be around. 

 

It would seem tweets like Manu Raju's above have little weight for people who are focused purely on 'results'.

The above just doesn't significantly matter if the economy is thriving, employment is up, nations are getting along etc etc.

In fact, people like Manu are labelled 'haters' and wish individual President failure over country 'success'.

Stop reporting/focusing on the above, put it in the tabloids where it belongs, focus more on what is 'important'.

I wonder what the research says when it comes to effective leadership in Government?

My guess some would probably tag some/all of it as self-righteous bunk anyways.

I don’t think anyone is focused on “results” at all to be honest. It’s a narrative for people who are either part of the Trump admin or fans of Trump, to minimize all the legal issues and character issues facing him. 

Any other President, the false medical document alone would be a major scandal. 

Jokes about his hair and weight are SNL fodder. But the relevant things going on are legitimate and any successes the admin has don’t diminish those. In my mind anyway. Lol

Micheal Cohen is done like dinner, better get a life line cause he ain't got no friends.

Seems you might be right. Here's something from his wikipedia. lot of info about him, father was a surgeon, holocaust survivor.

Quote

Cohen has been involved in real estate ventures in Manhattan, including buying and selling four apartment buildings between 2011 and 2014. The total purchase price of the four buildings was $11 million and the total sales price was $32 million.[10][16] Cohen sold the four properties at above their assessed values, in all-cash transactions, to LLCs owned by persons whose identities are not public.[17] After this was reported by McClatchy DC in October 2017, Cohen said that all four properties were purchased by an American-owned "New York real estate family fund" that paid cash for the properties in order to obtain a tax deferred (Section 1031) exchange, but did not specifically identify the buyer.[

Bought for 11 million sold for 32 million. cash.

Nice work if you can get it.

Wonder if El Trumpo was in on that one. 

Could be another "flip" of a different kind coming up.

Trump getting prisoners out of the North Korean labor camps (which despite the love for Kim Jong Un by some on this site, are rife with human rights abuses).

I wonder if the three men whose lives have been saved are worried about Trump diddling a porn star?

You seem be taking the coverage of trumps potential crimes very personally. Can you explain why?

soeaking of love for the NK dictator, would you describe him as “honourable”?

one reason why their successes turn to failures is because trump can’t even be honest about it. 

To answer your question, in my expert opinion I don’t think anyone cares about trump sleeping with a porn star. Well except trump who keeps lying about it.

Trump stated that past administrations did nothing to free the 3 Americans prisoners in North Korea, once again he is talking out of his ass as 2/3 were arrested on his watch. POTUS king of Fake News.

Yup. Hard to feel sorry for his news coverage when he shoots himself in the foot.

"As of 2017, adultery remains a criminal offense in 21 states. Massachusetts, Idaho, Oklahoma, Michigan, and Wisconsin consider adultery a felony"

 checked the bible, punishment for adultery in old testament, is death. 

" thou shalt not commit adultery."

You make a good point especially as it pertains to the support trump has from evangelicals. 

However I don’t think most Americans cared who clinton slept with and I don’t think they care who trump slept with. The lies and the cover up and the campaign finance crimes (which could be felonies) are a different story. 

Trump should have just admitted it (although it still meant a campaign finance issue).

What’s taking trump so long to get these prisoners released? Rambo would have been in an out by now. 

Speaking of which wouldn't be great if Trump started wearing military fatigues, he could regale everyone with some great Vietnam Stories ??

Trump has absolutely no compunction about throwing anyone under the bus if there is any perceived benefit or convenience to himself. That is who he has always been and is his core personality (malignant narcissist as near as I can tell) and is generally a horrible human being. None of this, even Trump being indicted, impeached or shown to be provably wrong will sway his fan base to any degree. As a matter of fact, right-wing ideologues will actually harden their positions and support for leaders when facts threaten the party line. This is quite different than left wing/progressives who will abandon or even vote against their party when that leadership fails or goes astray.                          Cohen will absolutely roll over on Trump and may be cooperating with Mueller already and there are credible reports that the Cohen materials contain far more damning revelations than paying off a porn star.  Chen stuck by Trump even when Trump humiliated him at Cohen's daughter's birthday party and that sting is probably still festering.

The thing that Trump ought to know is that iuliani did get his facts straight, and since Giuliani is a lawyer, he should have known what he was saying would be a confession of culpability on behalf of Trump. All of Trumps hirees have been "great people" until they leaves under a cloud (26 at last count).
