Gee, for someone who believes himself to be so intelligent, it strikes me as kind of funny and a little bit sad that you still haven't got over your loss.  

And your intimation that I characterized the angry "new" Democrat lefties like yourself as pissed off and butt-hurting wasn't indicating snowflake mentality, nor was I implying that.  I would characterize Snowflakes as children who are afraid of every descriptive term with which they disagree and also characterized by finding those individuals with whom they disagree, to be racist, bigoted, and some sort of "phobic".  Another factor for snowflake-ism would include the need to be coddled all the time .

That isn't what I think of those like yourself. I simply find you to be angry, pissed off, and ready to take your marbles home and not play any longer since you lost the election.  

I do find it petulant and childish, and unbecoming of an adult, but worse for you, since you seem to feign religious beliefs and principles which you don't seem to be following in the least these days.

Does every one of your days start with the realization that "OH MY GOD, HE'S STILL PRESIDENT"??... and then the day gets worse and worse for you? LOL!

These types of discussions are stupid IMO.

Its not a matter of us protesting, it boils down to you fabricating crimes in your delusional head, and so far I see once again that you can't name a crime.  

You stated IF PROVEN.  If WHAT is proven?

Maybe you should learn what crime he supposedly committed and then come back and inform us.  

Your wishful thinking doesn't list a crime.

Give me the statute and the crime involved.  

I submit you can't because there isn't one that exists.

I think the GOP is going to lose control of the political reigns of power for quite some time, once this is all over.

These are the public facts that we know. I'm particularly interested in Jim Brown's take. If this had come out of the blue today, Trump would be toast. This is just the appetizer. The main course is still coming:

https://www.axios.com/trump-russia-mueller-investigation-37608752-bef7-4b25-a7dd-89e3032bec7e.html


We now know several Russian officials reached out to a half-dozen Republicans very close to Trump and his campaign, including his eldest son, his closest adviser, his lawyer and his campaign manager. We now know they took the meetings, often enthusiastically, during and after the campaign. 

We now know Russia offered in those chats campaign assistance — “synergy,” they called it. We now know no one around Trump alerted the FBI of this effort to subvert our elections.

We now know that 12 Russian intelligence officers were indicted for hacking the DNC and systematically releasing material for the purpose of hurting the Clinton campaign via WikiLeaks.

We know that Trump associates Roger Stone and Jerome Corsi attempted — successfully, in some instances — to get in touch with WikiLeaks and that they are under investigation for whether they had advance knowledge about the email dumps.

We now know Donald Trump Jr. and others took a meeting with Russians promising dirt on Hillary Clinton. We now know Don Jr., when approached with the promise of dirt, wrote: “If it’s what you say I love it especially later in the summer.”

We now know Trump was negotiating a Trump property in Moscow during the presidential campaign — and hid this from the public and lied about it. We now know Mueller believes, based on his court filing, the “Moscow Project was a lucrative business opportunity that sought, and likely required, the assistance of the Russian government.”

We now know every arm of the U.S. intelligence community concluded Russia sought to systematically influence the election outcome. We now know this was an unanimous conclusion, save one dissent: Trump.
 
We now know Trump officials continued talking with the Russians during the post-election transition. We now know Jared Kushner and Jeff Sessions failed to initially disclose any contacts with Russians on their government forms.

We now know Jared Kushner suggested a secret backchannel with the Russians, which had it happened, would have been free of U.S. eavesdropping.

We now know Trump soured on FBI director James Comey, Attorney General Jeff Sessions and White House counsel Don McGahn in part over their handling of the probe.

We now know Paul Manafort, who ran the Trump campaign in the summer of 2016, lied about his Russia contacts, was indicted and is going to jail.

We now know Flynn lied about his Russian contacts, was fired and pleaded guilty, after agreeing to become a key witness in the investigation.

We now know Cohen lied about his Russian contacts, was indicted and then flipped to become a key witness against Trump.

Russ is living proof IMO that when it comes to politics, Democrats haven't much in the way of substantive thinking.  They seem to all operate on emotion and hysterics, which Russ has been engaged in for over 2 years now.
