Does anyone agree with these sentiments? He complains that "nothing happens" when Dems get caught. But he controls the wheels of power. The fact is that Trump makes this #### up, and about half of his supporters buy it...and the other half doesn't care. Why has Hillary Clinton not been indicted? Because all the talk of her "criminality" was just talk. She cant be indicted because she committed no crime. Trump creates these myths and they spread like wildfire among his supporters. According to Trump, all of these people have committed crimes but are somehow, magically, not actually charged by Trump's own DOJ and 50 U.S. Attorneys. Hillary Clinton Jim Comey Barack Obama Joe Biden Lt. Col. Vindman John Bolton James Clapper etc, etc, etc
Trump is the Chief Conspiracy Theorist, and I think we're getting to the point where even some of his supporters aren't biting on all these fantasies.
@realDonaldTrump · 2h We have a totally corrupt previous Administration, including a President and Vice President who spied on my campaign, AND GOT CAUGHT...and nothing happens to them. This crime was taking place even before my election, everyone knows it, and yet all are frozen stiff with fear.... Show this thread Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump · 2h Replying to @realDonaldTrump ...Won all against the Federal Government and the Democrats send everything to politically corrupt New York, which is falling apart with everyone leaving, to give it a second, third and fourth try. Now the Supreme Court gives a delay ruling that they would never have given... Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump · 2h ....for another President. This is about PROSECUTORIAL MISCONDUCT. We catch the other side SPYING on my campaign, the biggest political crime and scandal in U.S. history, and NOTHING HAPPENS. But despite this, I have done more than any President in history in first 3 1/2 years!"

The President should focus on the issues facing Americans, not on what he perceives is happening to him.

He probably thought his SCOTUS appointments were "his guys" and he's angry and confused as to why they're being disloyal. 3.5 years in and he still doesn't understand how any of this works.

yet I was not supportive of impeachment. (but there was no "fake evidence")
The point here is that the President of the United States is complaining because no action has been taken against the people mentioned. He is the Chief Executive and he has shown that he doesn't really mind meddling in the affairs of the Justice Dept (which I happen to believe he has the right to do). So why doesn't he direct The AG to take action? And if that AG won't, fire him and put in someone who will?
Exactly who is President Trump complaining to? He has the power to fix exactly what he is complaining about....right?

No, he can't just order the AG to do what he wants...
But, he could certainly ask for briefings on each matter and get specific facts on which ones are investigatable and which are not, and why.
I agree on the surface, however, it seems stupid. How many times has he tweeted it?

Ummm, if he "hereby demands it" then he's attempting to use the official govt. to attack and investigate political opponents. That is among the most serious things a President can not do.

even before they lied to the FISA Court about it - long before the Impeachment.
At some point in your sorry little so-called Adult lives you actually have to start telling the truth, don't you think?

line of reasoning, the POTUS can direct the AG.
The issue is not nearly as settled as most people think it is.
The bottom line is that if the POTUS wants something investigated, he has the means to make that happen, within reason.

You people are the literal devil - everything you say is doublespeak.
There was no fake evidence and even Republican Sen. Mitt Romney voted to impeach. Can you really convince yourself that a 'fake impeachment' could really happen in this country? Even John Bolton confirmed that Trump withheld military aid to Ukraine until they produced dirt on Biden and Hillary.
It's a fact, he actually did that and he was impeached for it. End of story.

It must not be, because they're not being charged. Why is that? Because they didn't actually lie under oath or destroy blackberries. It's right-wing mythology that's become mainstream thought among Trump supporters. It's all just fantasy created by Herr Trump. It's simply not true and never has been.

Some of them are real. I'll just address one, however.
HRC. As someone who has had a very high clearance all my working life, I understand more than the average person about the email situation. Maybe building and standing up the server was not "illegal" even though there was and is written policy (not federal law) against it. Maybe the Clinton foundation banking $100M+ from foreigners was not "illegal." Maybe AG Wynch meeting with Bubba on the tarmac was not "illegal." ...but these things are unethical and show egregiously bad judgment at a minimum. And, when viewed as a whole (with "the rest" of the list) shows a lot of connections that are probably more than circumstantial evidence for several threads of wrongdoing.
The sending/receiving of classified email is clearly against the law. The facts are she did it. There is tangible clear evidence - Comey told the nation about it. The debate is if she knew or not. It is clear that you cannot be in her position and not know about classified markings and not know its prohibited to transmit intelligence in an unclass manner (even if unmarked) that reveals national technical means! If she is that dumb, she should have been put to pasture years ago.
The other potentially more serious issue is the cyber security threats from Russia and China. Surely the Sec of State was briefed 50 times on this. Again, I am speaking from a position of knowledge including classified meetings and work with 3-letter agencies, and based on knowing the capabilities of threats from briefings and personal experience, there's no doubt in my mind both Russians and Chinese quickly got on her server after it was stood up. I have not been told this - it is only my opinion. However, if you asked 100 people in my business, I would guess 95 would agree with this assessment. I believe at some point in the news cycle a couple years back someone released a statement that the government believed there was an advanced persistent threat (APT) on her machine(s).
Thus, the bad guys most likely have nearly every email sent/received on that server. And it went on for years. I do not know if there is a statute about being egregiously stupid and setting all this up for failure, but she did it.

Yes, he reads from a teleprompter very nicely. Now, what about his support of the Confederate Flag and protecting Confederate monuments?

Why would they have a right to have a Confederate flag at a racetrack? Its not their property. There are rules at a sporting events.

People feel like their rv or their rebel flag hat/shirt is their property. Im guessing many nascar fans are just as offended by a BLM flag as other persons are offended by a confederate flag. One is outlawed, the other is celebrated. Weird.
Trump sees it as bad for business. He thinks nascar banning the flag is bad for business. He doesn’t care about the flag, he’s a yankee through and through. But people want to make him out as a klansman, it’s just silly.

You can bring as many African-Americans, Hispanics, and Women as you want to "our side" - whatever? who cares? Fine by me... that's because by and large, we're not the Bigoted ones.
So just for God's sake send all the whiny Liberals somewhere else - anywhere else.

Felix--Hillary DID commit a crime. She violated the Espionage Act. The FBI IG wanted her to be indicted but Comey, breaking the rules, exonerated her...for obvious reasons...he didn't want Trump to be elected. Huge miscarriage of justice. Not surprised you missed that, however. Too much CNN?
The rest on your list were unethical if not guilty of a crime to be identified. Why are you so incapable of addressing facts, common sense and logic. Terminal TDS?
