Your president admits to breaking the law and this is the best you can do against those running against him?

I've heard of nothingburgers, and even been gaslighted about nothingburgers, but this is, well, nothing but misrepresentation. With a side of desperation.

He never admitted to breaking the law.

If trying to get a political opponent investigated was illegal Hillary Clinton broke the law. She used Fusion GPS to manufacture the Steele dossier to get Trump investigated. Why doesn't Trump point that out? Because he knows this is a distraction away from the Epstein scandal and he probably has more to do with Epstein than he will admit.

Remember how Trump insisted Mueller was running a witch hunt but never pointed out how Mueller had done it before and tried to ruin Hatfill's life? Trump is helping the distractions along by omitting what a true zealot would say on the matter.

Robert Maxwell worked for the Mossad and Epstein probably did too. That is what should be in the headlines, not another fake scandal.

Trying to get anything of value from a foreign government in a US election is illegal, not trying to get a political opponent investigated.

Fusion GPS is a US company and there is nothing illegal about using it for election purposes. So your "whataboutism" is a dismal failure.

So there's a discrepancy between how she remembers something that happened 50 years ago now and how she remembered it in 2008.

Wow, how devastating!

Again with the lies about the Steele dossier.

Fake news, man. OLD fake news, at that.

And as for what Trump has to say, just remember... How can you tell he's lying? His lips are moving.

And I don't even see a discrepancy.

Both times she related the same story in a slightly different way. She never said she was "fired". The article uses the word "fired", and that is the discrepancy and the misrepresentation. Teachers, especially in the lower grades, are rehired every year. Not rehiring someone is not "firing" them.

Sorry, it may be trivial but saying " 'I don’t think this is going to work out for me," in 2008 and "the principal did what principals did in those days," she said. "Wish me luck and hire someone else for the job." in 2019 is a discrepancy. The former suggests a decision by Warren to terminate her teaching job; the latter suggests an involuntary departure (though perhaps not a "firing" ).

Well, I think that if I wasn't rehired only because I was pregnant, then it is very easy to say "I don't think this (the whole career choice) is going to work out for me." And that's because that is what principals did in those days.

Biden got somebody fired so his son could get a job. That is illegal. As Trump points out, he is obligated to investigate possible corruption. Are you okay with candidates never being investigated because of a perceived conflict of interest? Letting corruption go unchecked is a conflict of interest. You cannot have it both ways.

HRC used Fusion GPS to manufacture the Steele dossier to get Trump investigated. Trump did the same thing with Biden so there is nothing illegal about that either using your same logic. Plus Bush used bribery and threats to gain UN votes for war. I can prove a quid pro quo there, but you cannot do that with Trump.

Trump tried to overthrow a democracy in Venezuela. If you cannot get him impeached for that you never will.

You think Fusion GPS had nothing to do with the Steel Dossier? That is a fact. Your habitual rejection of truth because you don't like where the facts lead make you coward. You will not even try to prove me wrong and that is why the truth eludes you.

You keep deliberately ignoring that Trump is trying to get a foreign government to do an investigation of another candidate for his personal political benefit. That is illegal no matter how many times you act like it isn't or raise some false/irrelevant "whataboutism".

The lie is that the Steele Dossier started the investigation of Trump's campaign's contacts with the Russians. It didn't as you well know. So why keep repeating this lie?
