Why would I trust you? I don't even know you.
When someone starts by saying "trust me" I immediately become way too suspicious of them to trust them. Like trump... He says that all the time.

One of the lessons my dad taught me: never trust someone that says "trust me" or "believe me". They know they have credibility problems because they know they are liars.
Flynn will never work for the government again.
He may be charged and tried for crimes.
Time will tell.
Just my opinion, but once Trump pushes through a HUGE tax break for the rich, which are the GOP's donors and the only demographic the GOP really cares about, Trump will be gone. The Republicans in Congress will no longer have any use for him so they will abandon him and use him for a scapegoat for giving the tax breaks for the rich.
Then just in time for the 2018 elections the GOP will blame the tax breaks for the rich on Trump, which will placate the clueless Republican base, And the GOP will also point out how by getting rid of Trump they put country before party, also BS. But lies and using Trump as a scapegoat will work. I have NO faith the Republican base will ever wake up to how badly the GOP is screwing them.
They don't need Trump for that. In fact, he is a hindrance to that end. How much Trump personally gains by the tax bill will be the poster that will slow it down. That is a assuming he can get past the credibility issues he has already created and continues to manufacturer. He may have already entered the lame duck period of his presidency.
If the Republicans want a tax bill, it will be President Pence that gets it done.
The people above her.. as in Trump and Steve Bannon.. lol. she's 1,000 times more qualified and honorable than those two jagoffs.
That's great, and those decisions now have consequences.

I agree that you guys don't give a damn about reality
Sally Yates: Russians had 'real leverage' over Michael Flynn - CNNPolitics.com
Well, whale, wail, wheel. The longer I stay at DP, the more I realize that there is the world in DP and there is the real world. In the real world, Michael Flynn is never likely to work in intelligence gathering again. He is Oliver North for millennials. It would look piss poor for anybody to rehire the guy fired for lying to the VP. Yet, in DP world, we were assured that nothing was going on with Flynn for months.
The same thing happened with Manaforte. We were assured that he'd done nothing wrong by DP members, but in the real world, Manaforte is never likely to work for an administration or be connected to one again. The political fallout would be too much for anybody involved. I think that here too, Conservatives and Republicans will tell us there is nothing to fear, but in the real world - people will have to answer to the millions who are demonstrating and demanding answers.
Republicans pushed Hillary's e-mail issue for so long, they have nobody to blame but themselves if they have to clean up Trump's mess for the next 4 years.
Not worried in the least about the Independents.
People on the far left should be paying attention to what the general public says about the media, and for that matter, Congress.
The unprecedented flow of propaganda coming from the left and their MSM partners is not going down well with everyday Americans.
While these dog whistles are certainly scoring well with the target audience desperate to bandage their wounded psyche's, the rest of the nation appears to think little of the effort.
I get a giggle when the fringe minorities tell us what the nation is thinking and feeling. Telling us what America wants. Telling us how America thinks. Speaking as if they are mainstream in their opinions.
They really should get out more.
Just sayin'......
You count the death count of minions so far buddy:
- Michael Flynn
- Paul Manaforte
- Bill O'Reilley
- Monica Crowley
- James Woosley
- James Comey
In the real world, these people are out of jobs.
What exactly was it that Yates said the Russians had on Flynn ??
Well certainly not what the afflicted on the left believe reality to be.
I prefer real facts to alternative facts... :shrug:
