Indictment-O-Rama Megathread: Mueller indicts 13 Russians

[Hollywood756]

the trademark for MAGA was registered in 2012.   2014 is bogus, he was running far before that.

A few minutes ago, Trump tweeted:

"russia started their anti-us campaign in 2014, long before I announced I would run for president. the results of the election were not impacted. The trump campaign did nothing wrong- no collusion!"

An admission for all practical purposes  -- except for the denial.

Looks like there was no collusion. I expect the Mueller counsel to wrap up sometime by April... maybe a little later. No more indictments, imo.

Ah, "it's possible". Sounds like the last legs of a dying inquiry.

Limo you are really bad at trolling. Anybody with at least half the IQ of Sarah Palin can tell that Trump probably did something illegal.

Says they also attacked Cruz and Rubio's campaign during the primary and also against Trump after he was elected.

Hillary's 3 week long post convention super bump, and the Khan controversy terrified the Russians so much that they assumed Trump has blown it and were close t discontinuing support.

I thought it was all wrapped up in August too

I just dont get how so many people could have sold their souls for Trump. Out of all people, why this garbage bag?

Because he "says it like it is", which is to say that he speaks their truth to their perceived power:

He says the racist things they think, to the perceived oppresson of pluralistic america.
He says the things they think about how to become wealthy to those who they think made them poor.
He says the authoritarian stuff they thing is strength to the soft, fat, liberal elites.

He champions the view of america that is held by the completely ignorant and incurious- he speaks again change to those most afraid of it.

After 4 decades of Reagan style make-believe politics, many Republicans are no longer capable of critical thinking

So I guess Flynn and Manafort weren't apart of the campaign now?

No, you see, he's trying to pin it all on Hillary: Russians started in 2014, Uranium One, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton suggested Trump run, Trump is a Russian agent = everything damaging or unpopular Trump does is Hillary Clinton's fault for getting a Russian agent like Trump elected.

Trump and the GOP will still take credit for anything popular, of course.

Since their goal was President Donald Trump, I am glad he has acknowledged that his election was an affront to American values.

[IndustrialJustice]

Trump's probably guilty of everything, and the pee tape is definitely real, but I'm getting a kick out of this "bombshell" that Russians spent a million bucks a month trying to influence a presidential election. The Kochs probably spent that much opposing the UAW's organizing efforts at Nissan's Mississippi plant this past summer.

[Landslide Lyndon]

I guess after today's revelations we should also see under new light Sanders's refusal to vote for Russia sanctions.

[Virginiá]

I remember a time when conservatives were saying Russian interference was preposterous, and then it was that any connection between Russia and the Trump campaign was absurd. They were wrong both times. So exactly why should anyone listen to anything they have to say on this? It's painfully obvious that, as a cop with a family member suspected of a crime might be told, "you are too close to this to see it straight," many Republicans/conservative pundits/news outlets are too biased and too conflicted to be trusted as reliable commentators on this matter.

(sorry, I've just been reading various headlines from conservative media and as usual its spiked my blood pressure)

Mueller levels new claim of bank fraud against Manafort

These next few months are sure going to be entertaining.

Nah, the fun starts when we get to Flynn's sentencing date (currently set for May 1, 2018).  Nothing YUGE until then, methinks unless there were non-Russia related crimes committed by Kushner (which wouldn't surprise me in the least).

"Bernie Sanders’ response to Mueller indictment does not address that this Russian operation tried to help his campaign, per indictment.

Just as I reported re Trump, that is a remarkable omission."
