There will be those who absolutely buy that Lestor Holt/NBC News "fudged" the interview even though there is evidence to the contrary.
No doubt about that. Trump and his aides/spokespeople rely on it.
"Just remember, what you are seeing and what you are reading is not what's happening." -- President Trump, July 24, 2018

There are confirmed facts and then there are "alternative facts", as Kellyanne Conway labeled the falsehoods told by the administration in January 2017.

Any member of congress who attempts to support or rationalize today's official statement (via Tweet) from President Trump is a lost cause. I hope none of them are willing to go so low, but I won't be surprised if some of them do.
Here's Trump's statement:
"Two long running, Obama era, investigations of two very popular Republican Congressmen were brought to a well publicized charge, just ahead of the Mid-Terms, by the Jeff Sessions Justice Department. Two easy wins now in doubt because there is not enough time. Good job Jeff......"
The President is actually suggesting that the Justice Department should only charge politicians accused of crimes after considering and prioritizing loyalty to one party and the President over all else.
His suggestion is elitist, swampy, unjust, and again demonstrates total ignorance and/or disregard for the rule of law and the separation of powers.
Trump is referring to Congressperson Chris Collins (NY), who rescinded his re-election bid amid allegations and evidence of insider trading weeks back, along with Congressperson Duncan Hunter (CA) who was charged last week with spending hundreds of thousands of campaign dollars on personal items. Collins and Hunter were the first House congressmen to endorse Trump.
Collins was not under investigation during Obama's tenure, by the way. That's another lie, but it's irrelevant anyway.

Ben Sasse seems to be the only non-retiring Republican congressperson with brains and balls enough to state the obvious and push back on clearly undemocratic declarations and actions by the Executive branch. Good on him.
“The United States is not some banana republic with a two-tiered system of justice – one for the majority party and one for the minority party," Sasse responded in a statement.
"These two men have been charged with crimes because of evidence, not because of who the President was when the investigations began," he continued.
"Instead of commenting on ongoing investigations and prosecutions, the job of the President of the United States is to defend the Constitution and protect the impartial administration of justice." http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/40484...-states-is

Stormy Daniels Retweeted Donald J. Trump
Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present your president. In addition to his...umm...shortcomings, he has demonstrated his incompetence, hatred of women and lack of self control on Twitter AGAIN! And perhaps a penchant for bestiality. Game on, Tiny.

Maybe someday Trump will write a book and say how bad Stormy's feet stunk. Trump fights back and that's why the left hates him. People should learn to expect in return what they themselves dish out.
He ain't heavy, he's my brother.

Don't be silly. I hate him because he is a vile, wretched human being who doesn't deserve the air he breathes, not because he's white trash.
He's the leader of the free world acting like a boy who has been told he's a crappy lover & needs to up his game.

Yeah, but the rest of the country is held to higher standards. I have to conduct myself professionally in the work place, I can't go around calling people horseface when they piss me off. But I guess he can get away with it while the rest of us poor bastards have to act like adults and pay our taxes.

Not that Stormy is a real stand up, reputable gal, but she's a washed up whore, not the potus.

He is a germaphobe that would not stick any part of himself in any of her orifices.
As for upping his game? He is President of the most powerful country in the world, a Billionaire, and has a gorgeous wife and very successful kids. I say his game is better than most people and EVEN dare I say it, Stormy Daniels.

I have to agree that he is not very PC and diplomacy to him is just getting to the point because suppers waiting. He tweets crazy shit and calls people stuff like "horseface" even though she is a prostitute he could have come up with something better like Mary Mellon or something, but................He is getting shit done and doing a great job at it.

She's always the most honest one in the room. I'm amazed that she even lets those media idiots talk considering the forked tongue accent they have.
