The Rout Is On, by Robert Gore

Uranium One and Fusion GPS are gold mines for Trump. There is no telling what other strands will unravel, who will turn state’s evidence and start squealing, and where all this will ultimately lead. It appears those who protected the Clintons for so long are now throwing them to the wolves. Anger runs deep in Democratic circles against Hillary Clinton. She screwed Bernie Sanders in the primary, lost the election she was supposed to win, and then hitched the party’s—and establishment Washington and its media lapdogs’—wagon to the star-crossed Trump-Russian collusion concoction.

It’s telling that the Uranium One scoops came from http://TheHill.com and the Fusion scoop came from The Washington Post, both reliable Democratic mouthpieces. There may be more than anger at work. The Clintons are perhaps being offered up as propitiatory sacrifices in the hope that Trump will be satisfied with their convictions and not proceed further. That hope is apt to be dashed. Further investigations will give Trump that much more sub rosa political leverage.

    Sorry. Nothing will happen. This will just join the list of the many other transgressions that are not pursued.

    The reason Trump is the worst nightmare for all professional politicians is that he has not come up through their ranks being coated with corruption and political slime. All the dirty files just lie around government halls because they aren't secret from all the dirty crooks. It was incomprehensible that a political neophyte could gain access, yet here he is. It is laughable that the best means they could come up with on the fly to blackmail him was a dossier that said he let Russian women pee on him. These liars have been depending on the same old lies for 100 years and they are too dumb and unimaginative to create any new ones. I figured that we would know real soon if Trump was going to play ball and it looks like he won't. Damn, this is going to get ugly, but it is long overdue.

    I believe that President Trump's moron act is for show, something he learned from his time in pageants and reality TV. That does not, however, make him a conspiracy theory mastermind.

    As a casual reader of the news, I've always suspected all allegations of the Trump campaign working with the Russian and President Trump trying to suppress the investigation were false. President Trump acted guilty, but I think that's just because he cares more about attention than anything else. I similarly suspect all claims about the Clinton Foundation being involved in corruption are false. I do wonder about the Clinton's built so much personal wealth, unrelated to the Foundation.

    I find the whole situation ghastly. We have a clownish president elected by a minority, many of them the "deplorable" individuals Clinton correctly identified. They're not even pretending to debate gov't issues. President Trump's critics and supporters both hope that someone failed to document a meeting or foreign payments properly, and if so: Score!! a TOUCHDOWN for one politician or another. I guess that's great for them and their cronies. But it's ghastly for everyone else.

    Suppose I'm wrong and investigators find clear proof someone working with President Trump worked with someone tied to the Russian gov't and then tried to use their position to get away with it. Then suddenly the world can be open about President Trump's antics being disgusting. Senator Flake and Senator Corker can brag that they stated the truth before it was cool. That scenario doesn't fix the fact that someone like Trump was able to become president and was defeated on a technicality rather than being Trump-like. It doesn't make people suddenly start talking about what the role of gov't should be. Unless people finally get sick of the clown show, we end up with more clowns running, not talking about issues, trying to stoke the fears and envy of the ignorant, and looking for little technicalities on which to claim their opponents should be in jail.

    There are still 300-400 million firearms in private hands. Of course, about 99% of them are held by Trump supporters.

    More evidence that evil people often accuse others of the things the accusers are guilty of doing.
    Thanks for following the threads and publishing your conclusions.

    I expect you are correct about Trump's motives. I don't expect we, the people, will regain any liberty regardless of Trump's success against the leftist Republicrats.
    It would be gratifying to see the Washington Post report a Jonestown style mass suicide by Democrats in order to preserve what little dignity they feel they have left.
