Don't let the door hit 'ya in the azz, on the way out !

Let the new impeachment begin.

The left scoffed at their President when he called himself a genius. He has them all scurrying around like mumbling monkeys. Unable to find time to carry out their own schemes.

I mean, unless I'm reading this wrong, this seems like a win/win overall...

I have never seen a post from you that supports Trump. And that is ok, I do not support any Democrat that wants his job. So I assume that this thread is some how supposed to smut Trump? So exactly how does this issue hurt Trump?

In response to that (from Rickady88GT)

Realistically (I think) it's only the voters who can hurt Trump in this national elections year. Look also to campaign volunteers and donors, but ultimately, it's only the voters themselves.

I wanted to exercise my Thread Topic Naming and Message Wording proclivities--"Four on the Floor" and "Offensive Presidential Interference"--because I like it. It seems recreational. I can't do that unless I first decide to create a new topic or message.

In this case, a discussion that drew in other forum members also ensued. For me, that's like "bonus points"--or finding the prize inside a box of Cracker Jacks.

The federal judge for the Roger Stone case is Amy Berman Jackson, and she could override any reduction in the sentencing recommendations for Roger Stone and punish him more severely--effectively restoring what these four newly-resigned U.S. attorneys had in mind for him.

I think that Trump is setting himself up to issue a pardon for Roger Stone, or to commute his sentence. This is the kind of "look" that Trump wants for that purpose.

Judge Jackson is an Obama appointee. She has already denied a request for a retrial. We know exactly where she stands.

It turns out the lead juror is virulently anti-Trump. Now we know where she stands too.
