Maybe what Trump meant by the "best people" was the "best" at committing crimes. Apparently, they are not very good at that either.

"At the direction of the candidate". That makes Trump a co-conspirator and that is an impeachable offense.

Enough said. You are who you hang with. Although, Mr. Davis, based on your obnoxious and constant posts that show your own ignorance, I will not engage with you after this email. It is not possible to have any type of constructive argument with someone who uses insults as part of his argument.

So, rant away. It only proves my point further.

On Tuesday afternoon, Donald Trump’s former campaign chair Paul Manafort was found guilty of eight counts of tax fraud, and, more significantly, his former lawyer and self-described “fixer” Michael Cohen, besides pleading guilty to eight counts of tax evasion and violating various campaign finance laws, directly implicated Trump in his crimes.

So, what has the Republican leadership had to say about this shocking news? Roll the tape.
