You could be forgiven for having a difficult time following all the players in the continuing saga that has engulfed Congressional committees, the president, the FBI, the NSA, Russia, the Clintons, former FBI Director Comey, WikiLeaks, the media, and who know how many others. The old baseball adage fits: “You can’t tell the players without a scorecard.”
Continuing the baseball metaphor, part of the problem is that it’s not entirely clear who is on whose team. Or for that matter, it’s not clear how many teams there are.
When one sits down to write a piece about this turmoil, one question that comes to mind is how much do potential readers already know, and how much time should be spent rehearsing information in an attempt to help clarify things rather than to obfuscate — something our politicians do well enough anyway.
So when we begin a piece with the assertion that Special Counsel Mueller might be accused of doing the very thing former FBI Director Comey accused President Trump of doing, do your eyes just glaze over, or is this all crystal clear to you?
We’ll try to straighten this out and clarify things for you, as well as hopefully explaining why this is important on page two.
Mark Benko-
The President cannot pardon himself from impeachment.
You can expect Mueller to examine the President’s financial activities over the past ten years at least.
Any improprieties could result in indictments and impeachment. The President is in a tough spot.

You are so lost

How stupid Christopher. ..just what do you expect in 7 month’s? And what do you expect when the RINOs block him? If these idiots would work with him things just might get accomplished. . smh !

Good luck with your environmental destruction program.
I thought Trump was a leader William.
He told us he could sit down with the Chinese and cut great deals.
It seems that this is not the case. The President can’t even strike a deal with moderate Republicans.
The Senate is not designed to be a rubber stamp.
And the system was designed to require some level of consensus behind a bill before it is made a law.
The President is not able to build consensus around his agenda.
This is the President’s failure.

Joani,
I have beloved family and dear friends who voted for Trump.
We are engaged in the free exchange of ideas, which is one of our greatest rights as Americans.
I may disagree with everything you say and challenge your opinions and logic but I would fight to the death your right to state them.
Assuming this isn’t f**e news, this is treason against the USA.
