Trump’s 2016 Case for Easing Russia Sanctions Gains New Relevance After Cohen Plea
WASHINGTON — In late March 2016, steaming toward the Republican nomination and with his aides still secretly in talks for a real estate deal in Russia, Donald J. Trump made a lengthy case for giving President Vladimir V. Putin what he wanted most: relief from American-led sanctions for his annexation of Crimea.

Michael Cohen Plea Increases Legal Exposure Of President Trump's Immediate Family

So I've been wondering why our local zombies have been slobbering on the board so much lately - and it's because the media has been beaming propaganda straight into their mushy brainz.
Yesterday there were - not one - but SIX anti-Trump (articles)opinion pieces in the WaPo. As many in CNN. Four in the NYTimes.
Today in CNN there's an anti-Trump 'article' (one of several) in the news section "The smoke around Donald Trump and Russia is choking his presidency". And while the 'article' admits right up front that there's no evidence of collusion, it spends the rest of its pointless space making a big deal about non-existent deals. Which it then admits Trump never lied about. "Now, even in light of Cohen's plea deal Thursday, Trump wasn't outright lying in any of those quotes." Before it accuses him of being untruthful. "But man, he is cutting it very, very close. If he's not outright lying, then he's not telling anything close to the full truth either."
WHO GIVES A FUCK.
Saint Obama didn't come right out and tell people he was assassinating Americans - sans trial and guilty verdict. Which one is more heinous?
To hell with all you lobotomized idiots. All you care about is your 'team' winning. As far as you're concerned, fuck democracy, fuck justice, fuck an independent press, fuck everyone not on your 'side'.
Well, fuck you too.

Trump’s company planned to give a $50 million penthouse at Trump Tower Moscow to Russian President Vladimir Putin as the company negotiated the luxury real estate development during the 2016 campaign, according to four people, one of them the originator of the plan.
Michael Cohen, Trump’s personal lawyer at the time, discussed the idea with a representative of Dmitry Peskov, Putin’s press secretary.
Cohen acknowledged in court that he had lied to Congress about the plan in order to protect Trump and his presidential campaign.
The revelation that representatives of the Trump Organization planned to forge direct financial links with the leader of a hostile nation at the height of the campaign raises fresh questions about President Trump’s relationship with the Kremlin.

The question at the heart of the Russia investigation has always been one of motive. Why has Donald Trump, both as a candidate and as the President, been so solicitous of Russia and of its leader, Vladimir Putin? Why did Trump praise Putin so obsequiously during the campaign? Why did the Trump campaign steer the Republican Party platform in a more pro-Russia direction? Why does Trump still refuse to criticize Putin and Russian actions around the world?
The guilty plea that Michael Cohen, Trump’s former personal attorney, entered on Thursday morning, at a federal-court hearing in Manhattan, goes a long way toward answering those questions. Once again, with Trump, it seems, the answers come down to money.
The timing of Cohen’s guilty plea is significant. It seems that the prosecution team, led by Robert Mueller, the special counsel, delayed Cohen’s admission of guilt until after Trump and his legal team had submitted the President’s written answers to Mueller’s questions, which he did earlier this month. Mueller surely asked Trump about the Moscow negotiation, and the President’s answers were likely locked in before he and his lawyers could factor in Cohen’s admissions. If those answers were to conflict with Cohen’s latest version of events, it would potentially be a matter of great peril for the President.
It’s true that Trump had the right to do business in Russia during the time when he was a candidate, but the public also had a right to know where his true financial interests lay. It would have been highly relevant to the public to learn that Trump was negotiating a business deal with Russia at the same time that he was proposing to change American policy toward that country. Not only was the public deprived of this information but Cohen’s guilty plea indicates that voters were actively misled about Trump’s interests. That is what is so important about Thursday morning’s news—it says that while Trump was running for President, he was doing his private business, not the public’s business. Trump may believe that his interest is the national interest, but it wasn’t true then, and it’s not true now.

Look at this piece by the Washington Post here Kiki:

If you hover over the word "Analysis" just above that gem of an article title, it will tell you what Analysis means "Interpretation of the news based on evidence, including data, as well as anticipating how events will unfold based off of past events".
This is news now.
It used to be that you had to go to Vox or Buzzfeed for pieces like this. Now you can get them straight from the Washington Post.
Now, since "You voted for Trump? You must be a Nazi." didn't work, I suppose the hope is "You voted for Trump? You must be a micro penis." will.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

Aww, Jackie looked in the mirror. Did you FINALLY see the swastika when you lifted up yer micropenis then?
It's been there all along!How you idiots can STILL be defending Trump is just the very definition of insane.
FBI raided the office of his former tax attorney today. You REALLY think that's just a coincidence?? Do you even understand how much evidence they have to have to even sign off on a search warrant???
Shitload after shitload they just keep shoveling in and swallowing. YOU BACKED THE WRONG HORSE, MORONS. Just admit it and move on...
I have seen this sooo many times in the last year
"All the hate for Trump means he's the one to be backing up"
It just makes my brain hurt. Every time. It's just unfathomable.
